Description: |
Canalization, a unifying biological principle first enunciated by
Conrad Waddington in 1942, is an idea that has had tremendous
intellectual influence on developmental biology, evolutionary biology,
and mathematics. In this course we will explore canalization in all
three contexts through extensive reading and discussion of both the
classic and modern primary literature, We intend this exploration to
raise new research problems which can be evaluated for further
understanding. We encourage participants to present new ideas in this
area for comment and discussion. |
