About Geoffrey West
Geoffrey West Biography
Trained as a theoretical physicist Geoffrey West has turned his analytical mind toward the inner workings of more concrete things like ... animals. In a paper for Science in 1997 he and his team uncovered what he sees as a surprisingly universal law of biology — the way in which heart rate size and energy consumption are related consistently across most living animals. (Though not all animals: “There are always going to be people who say ‘What about the crayfish?’ he says. “Well what about it? Every fundamental law has exceptions. But you still need the law or else all you have is observations that don’t make sense.)A past president of the multidisciplinary Santa Fe Institute (after decades working in high-energy physics at Los Alamos and Stanford) West now studies the behavior and development of cities. In his newest work he proposes that one simple number population can predict a stunning array of details about any city from crime rate to economic activity. It's all about the plumbing he says the infrastructure that powers growth or dysfunction. His next target for study: corporations.Contact a speaker booking agent to check availability on Geoffrey West and other top speakers and celebrities.
