Gene regulatory networks and network models in development and evolution

The passion, energy, and intellectual rigor that the late Eric Davidson brought to science transformed fields and the lives of many scientists working in them. Key among his many contributions was developing a testable framework and global approach to understanding the mechanics of gene regulation and development. For several decades, Davidson and his colleagues developed the tools, concepts, and approaches that led to a conceptual revolution in our understanding of the role of circuits of interacting genes, regulatory elements, and transcription factors in the differentiation of cells, tissues, … [↵][1]1Email: nshubin{at}uchicago.edu.
