Some topics that are sort of relevant to LW and overlaps enough with biology that posts focusing on the biological side of things would be interesting:
The brain: Much of LW is about it’s abstract/computational behaviour, but what is it actually, you know, physically.
Prosthesis, augmented intelligence, organic computers, etc.
Population dynamics. Just my intuition saying I have vague memories abaut this having a bunch of interesting examples of math relevant to the singularity.
Nanotech is all around us, and what it has a hard or easy time doing might say a few thing about what the artificial kind will be able to do?
… Ok most of these are sort of not very much biology and kinda cheesy, but I tried.
This is a great idea!
