在生物学中，例外大多是规则，而规则大多是例外。然而，最近的结果表明，生物学中已知的普遍概念，例如遗传密码或利用 ATP 作为能量来源，可以通过基于香农信息概念的一大类原理来补充。本立场文件讨论了制定此类通用信息原则的各种有前景的途径及其与生物学领域的相关性。 [DOI：10.2976/1.3171566]
In biology, the exception is mostly the rule, and the rule is mostly the exception. However, recent results indicate that known universal concepts in biology such as the genetic code or the utilization of ATP as a source of energy may be complemented by a large class of principles based on Shannon's concept of information. The present position paper discusses various promising pathways toward the formulation of such generic informational principles and their relevance for the realm of biology. [DOI: 10.2976/1.3171566]
