Evolutionary developmental biology, or evo‐devo, investigates how evolution shapes developmental processes to generate the diversity of life. It synthesises comparative embryology, genetics and ...

The study of Astyanax mexicanus, encompassing both its cave-adapted and surface-dwelling forms, has emerged as a model for understanding evolutionary adaptation to extreme environments. Researchers ...

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 ...

Have you ever looked at a human embryo and thought, “That kind of looks like a fish”? If you haven’t, you might be surprised to learn that, in a way, we all begin our lives like this. The idea that ...

Harvard Faculty of Arts and Sciences has officially voted to change the name of the Human Evolutionary Biology concentration during a meeting on April 1. Effective as of July 1, 2025 — when the ...

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--EvolutionaryScale, a frontier AI research lab for biology, launched today with ESM3, a milestone AI model capable of generating novel proteins. ESM3 generated a new Green ...

Evolutionary biologists are investigating the extent to which ants learn from past experiences. After being attacked by ants from a particular nest, ants behave more aggressively towards others from ...

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 ...
