The Evo Devo Chronicles

The Evo Devo Chronicles explores how the origins and development of biological traits shape the diversity of life. It examines how changes in genes controlling development—called "regulatory genes"—have driven the evolutionary emergence of new structures and forms across species. By understanding these developmental processes, scientists uncover how small genetic shifts can produce significant evolutionary changes, linking our developmental biology to evolutionary history. In essence, Evo Devo reveals the genetic blueprint behind the evolution of life's vast variety, offering insights into how complex organisms and features have evolved over millions of years.
