Here on Nobel Intent, we've mostly discussed evolution in terms of DNA data and fossils. But there's a growing field that's picked up the nickname evo-devo, which approaches evolutionary questions ...

Research in evolutionary developmental biology, known as "evo-devo," is being held back because the dominant model organisms used by scientists are unable to illustrate key questions about evolution, ...

This issue features papers in evolutionary developmental biology – ‘evo-devo’ – that explore the roles of genetic variation in the evolution of developmental processes in animals. Development is ...

The recent marriage of evolutionary biology with developmental biology has resulted in the birth of a new field, evolutionary developmental biology, or "evo-devo." Evo-devo scientists study the ...

It would be hard to imagine two more different timescales in the lives of organisms than development--the transformation of an embryo to an adult within a single generation--and evolution--the ...

Studying evolution by focusing solely on fossils would leave many questions unanswered, but evolutionary developmental biology (otherwise known as “evo-devo”) helps fill in the gaps. Evo-devo ...

Let's be honest: the much-hyped discipline of evolutionary developmental biology, or evo-devo, hasn't quite lived up to expectations—at least, not if we were expecting a revolution in biology. And ...

In the last 200 years, scientists have been studying the origin of insect wings using various approaches, such as paleontology, taxonomy and morphology. Yoshi Tomoyasu, associate professor of biology ...

Although Darwin's theory of why species adapt and change has been called "the best idea anyone ever had," it was incomplete. Today, the field of "evo devo," or evolutionary developmental biology, ...
