The multilevel model of behavioral selection (MLBS) by Borgstede and Eggert (Behav Process 186:104370. 10.1016/j.beproc.2021.104370 , 2021) provides a formal framework that integrates reinforcement learning with natural selection using an e...
Optimal dispersal and diffusion-enhanced robustness in two-patch metapopulations: origin's saddle-source nature matters [0.03%]

A two-patch logistic metapopulation model is investigated both analytically and numerically focusing on the impact of dispersal on population dynamics. First, the dependence of the global dynamics on the stability type of the full extinctio...

Mathematical models of cancer and bacterial evolution have generally stemmed from a gene-centric framework, assuming clonal evolution via acquisition of resistance-conferring mutations and selection of their corresponding subpopulations. Mo...

In 1913, the geneticist William Bateson called for a halt in studies of genetic phenomena until evolutionary fundamentals had been sufficiently addressed at the molecular level. Nevertheless, in the 1960s, the theoretical population genetic...

In recent years, some scholars have explicitly questioned the desirability or utility of applying the classical and "old-fashioned" theories of scientific change by the likes of Karl Popper and Thomas S. Kuhn to the question of the precise ...
Normalizing need not be the norm: count-based math for analyzing single-cell data [0.03%]

Counting transcripts of mRNA are a key method of observation in modern biology. With advances in counting transcripts in single cells (single-cell RNA sequencing or scRNA-seq), these data are routinely used to identify cells by their transc...

We study the dynamics of a discrete model with two different stages of the population, the pre-adult stage governed by a Beverton-Holt-type map and the adult stage by a [Formula: see text]-Ricker map. The composition of both maps gives the ...

In this paper, we develop a network-based methodology to investigate the problems related to matrix stability and bifurcations in nonlinear dynamical systems. By matching a matrix with a network, i.e., interaction graph, we propose a new ne...

In our paper, we analyse the relationship of the evolutionary philosophy of Charles Sanders Peirce to Lamarckian natural philosophy and link it to concepts of teleology, focusing especially on Aristotelian and Peircean conceptions of the fi...

Two ideas are popular among biologists. The first idea is concerned with the biased nature of biology, especially the idea that biologists have overemphasized the importance of competition in the past. The second idea is concerned with prog...
