Theory: Biological systems organize to maximize entropy production subject to information and biophysicochemical constraints.

NSF Advancing Theory in Biology (ATB) Project (EF-0928742) Web Site.
Project proposal can be found here.
Numerical modeling work is also supported in part by NSF Grants CBET-0756562 and OCE-0852263

This site is actively being developed (as of 15 Sep 2010).
