Autopoiesis is a term coined by biologists Humberto Maturana and Francisco Varela to describe the self-organizing nature of living systems. It refers to the ability of an organism to continuously self-produce and self-maintain its organization through interactions with its environment. In essence, autopoietic systems are self-referential and self-sustaining.
