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 ...

Evolutionary biology and the concept of disease
Medicine, Health Care and Philosophy, 2000In recent years, an increasing number of medical books and papers attempting to analyse the concepts of health and disease from the perspective of evolutionary biology have been published (Eaton et al., 1993; Ewald, 1993; Harrison, 1993; Nesse and Williams, 1995; Profet, 1991; Rose, 1991; Temple and Burkitt, 1994).

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

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
