Evolutionary Synthetic Biology
ACS Synthetic Biology, 2012Signaling networks process vast amounts of environmental information to generate specific cellular responses. As cellular environments change, signaling networks adapt accordingly. Here, I will discuss how the integration of synthetic biology and directed evolution approaches is shedding light on the molecular mechanisms that guide the evolution of ...

Evolutionary Economics and Evolutionary Biology [PDF]
Present theorizing in economics is mainly directed towards two goals. First, there is the functionalist endeavor at explaining, or better rationalizing, why certain kinds of behavior and institutions can be observed in the economy. Second, efforts are made to attribute, in a hypothetico-normative manner, certain features, such as efficiency, equity, or

Evolutionary Biology and Evolutionary Economics
Journal of Interdisciplinary Economics, 1997The paper identifies two major conceptual challenges facing evolutionary economics and shows how they parallel similar challenges facing evolutionary and developmental biology. One issue is the differentiation between learning-by-doing, on one hand, and habit formation, on the other.

The recognition more than a decade ago that lipids presented by CD1 could function as T cell antigens revealed a startling and previously unappreciated complexity to the adaptive immune system. The initial novelty of lipid antigen presentation by CD1 has since given way to a broader perspective of the immune system's capacity to sense and respond to a ...

Systems Biology and Evolutionary Biology
2014In this chapter, I examine the recent development of systems biology in the light of its relations with evolutionary biology. Although a large part of systems biology is not basically interested in evolutionary issues, I show that it cannot ignore these. I focus particularly on the search of design principles, which are general principles of regulation

An Alternative Evolutionary Biology
German Research, 2007AbstractThe modern view of biology was first proposed by Charles Darwin in the mid‐19th century. However, there have also been numerous proponents of non‐Darwinian theories of evolution, who attempted to explain the order of life ...

Resonance, 2002
“For a biologist”, wrote Sir Peter Medawar, “the alternative to thinking in evolutionary terms is not to think at all”. Yet, at the end of an education in biology in most Indian universities, this is not quite the view of evolutionary biology that one is left with. Evolution is presented summarily, almost as a footnote, rather than as a vital branch of

Paleontological Journal, 2019
Evolutionary developmental biology (evo-devo) formed due to the interactions of evolutionary biology, paleontology, and comparative genomics, analyzes the interrelations of ontogenetic and phylogenetic processes and, primarily, the influence of changes in individual development are under genetic control, and Hox genes play a decisive role in the ...

Evolutionary Issues in Craniofacial Biology
Cleft Palate Journal, 1990This overview discusses evolution in the context of craniofacial development and developmental processes. It begins with a discussion of the origins of the craniofacial tissues in the dentine and bone of the dermal denticles of the Ordovician jawless vertebrates, followed by a brief discussion of the mechanisms responsible for the evolution of the jaws
