Alan Turing is known as one of the fathers of computer science but in 1952 he published an article titled “The Chemical Basis of Morphogenesis” in which he wrote a theory to explain how the various biological organisms take different forms in a natural way, starting from a uniform and homogeneous state. Unfortunately, Turing committed suicide in 1954 and only recently a group of researchers from Brandeis University and the University of Pittsburgh published in the journal “Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences” the results of a study that confirms that theory.
