Charles Darwin’s theory of evolution by natural selection transformed biology and continues to guide modern science, from ...

Selection in Assembly Space. (A) Pictorial representation of the assembly space represents the formation of combinatorial object space from building blocks and physical constraints. (B) Observed copy ...

A new wave of scientists argues that mainstream evolutionary theory needs an urgent overhaul. Their opponents have dismissed them as misguided careerists – and the conflict may determine the future of ...

Researchers have published a comprehensive study on the significance of species differences for the most central cell maintenance mechanisms. The researchers used the brown hare (Lepus europaeus) and ...

The program in Evolutionary Biology is designed to provide students with knowledge of macro- and micro-evolutionary processes underlying the evolution and diversification of life on Earth and an ...

Humans' exposure to high temperature burn injuries may have played an important role in our evolutionary development, shaping ...

Erik Svensson receives funding from from the Swedish Research Council (VR; grant no. 2020-03123). How will life on Earth and the ecosystems that support it adapt to climate change? Which species will ...

An international team of researchers has developed a new theoretical framework that bridges physics and biology to provide a unified approach for understanding how complexity and evolution emerge in ...

Assembly theory bridges the gap between physics and biology in explaining how complex objects are identifiable as products of evolution and how reusability of parts allows novelty and identical ...
