Dmitry Sergeevich Chernavskii Physicist, biologist, economist. Doctor of Physics-Mathematical Sciences, Professor. He was Chief Researcher at the Lebedev Physical Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Head of the Laboratory of Theoretical Biophysics at Theoretical Department. Winner of the event “For the best explanation of the key issues of the structure of the world” (2004) of the Alexander Gordon television program. He was a member of the scientific councils of the Russian Academy of Sciences on biophysics and the impact of physical fields on humans.
He graduated from the Faculty of Engineering and Physics of the Moscow Mechanical Institute (now the Moscow Institute of Engineering and Physics) in 1949. Since 1955, he has been a candidate of Physics-mathematical Sciences (thesis topic – “Study of the interaction of neutrons and protons at low energies by the variational method”). Since 1964, Doctor of Physics-mathematical Sciences (thesis topic — “Peripheral interaction of high-energy particles”). The main areas of scientific research and scientific achievements of D. S. Chernavskii relate to biophysics, synergetics, theory of developing (physical, biological, economic and social) systems, cliodynamics (historical dynamics). He had formulated the concept of the functioning of protein enzymes, now known as the “protein machine”; he had developed the theory of tunnel electronic transport in biological systems, which later became widely recognized; he had proposed a model for the emergence of valuable biological information using the example of a single biological code; he had proposed and developed a model of human thinking called Natural Constructive Cognitive Architecture (NCCA). He is the author of more than 350 scientific papers, including the books “Mathematical Modeling in Biophysics”, “Introduction to Theoretical Biophysics”, “Synergetics and Information: A Dynamic Theory of Information”. |
