Additional information

From the speech at the workshop in the Institute of Theoretical and Experimental Biophysics, dedicated to the memory of L.M. Chailakhyan.

On behalf of the Editorial Board: with some theses expounded in this work it is difficult to agree [see G.R. Ivanitsky “XXI Century: What Life Is from the Viewpoint of Physics” UFN 1180, no.4, pp. 337–369(2010)].

English Editor’s Note: This text is a meticulously prepared equivalent of the original publication with all its factual statements, peculiar terminology, phrasing and style, so the reader may more clearly recognize the major problems with this area of scholarly activity. A.G.
