biocybernetics

Biocybernetics is an interdisciplinary field that studies the regulatory and control mechanisms of biological systems, such as the human body, using principles from cybernetics. It explores how living organisms maintain stability (homeostasis), adapt to changes, and coordinate functions through feedback loops and communication pathways. By understanding these processes, biocybernetics helps develop medical technologies, improve health treatments, and design bio-inspired systems. Essentially, it treats biological systems as complex, self-regulating entities, applying engineering and informational concepts to better comprehend their function and behavior.
