A number of universals can be observed in the developing embryos of all phyla. An attempt is made here to describe some of these with a simple model, one consisting of two mutually repelling regions of gene patterning produced by signaling pathways,

The 'Cambrian explosion', about 540 million years ago, may have occurred within 10 to 50 million years. Almost all of the modern phyla, a very restricted group and many groups that may represent extinct phyla, suddenly appear near that time in the fo

Morphogen patterns are viewed as being affected by epithelial sheet geometry in early development. As the total area of the (closed) sheet changes, the changing geometry acts back in turn to change the morphogen pattern. A number of constraints are g

A new suggestion for pattern formation in biological systems is proposed. The interaction of two signaling pathways provides complex patterning. The interaction of two pathways involves few of the biochemical complexities of the pathways. The 'Wnt' p

The regions of independent quantum states, maximally classically correlated states, and purely quantum entangled (supercorrelated) states described in a recent formulation of quantum information theory by Cerf and Adami are explored here numerically

The model addresses the question of the origin of traveling waves, mimicking waves of the Hh and Dpp proteins such as found in development of the fly eye. These two proteins, which are part of an important signaling pathway to the genome, are found i

Phyllotaxis is the study of the symmetrical arrangements of plant organs, and most often associated with the Fibonacci series of numbers. The present work points out that the well known Helmholtz equation of mathematical physics correlates all of the

A thesis student at Stanford in the late 1950s reminisces about working under the guidance of Professor Edwin T. Jaynes. Some of the theoretical puzzles at that time are remembered. These involved topics such as comparison of the semi-classical theor

Geometrical aspects relevant to discussion of deformable epithelial cell sheets are presented. The epithelium is pictured as consisting of cells joined at their lateral surfaces and having cell heights which vary with position over the middle surface

A model is given for the generation of pattern and form in living systems, based on the assumption of two types of a single adhesion molecule that form homotypic cell-cell contacts. The time dependence of the model is different from that of the Turin
