Emergence of multicellularity in a model of cell growth, death and aggregation under size-dependent selection
Salva Duran-Nebreda, Ricard V. Solé
How multicellular life forms evolved out from unicellular ones constitutes a major problem in our understanding of the evolution of our biosphere. A recent set of experiments invol…
Ambiguity in language networks
Ricard V. Solé, Luís F. Seoane
Human language defines the most complex outcomes of evolution. The emergence of such an elaborated form of communication allowed humans to create extremely structured societies and…
Modelling Lipid Competition Dynamics in Heterogeneous Protocell Populations
Ben Shirt-Ediss, Kepa Ruiz-Mirazo, Fabio Mavelli +1
In addressing the origins of Darwinian evolution, recent experimental work has been focussed on the discovery of simple physical effects which would provide a relevant selective ad…
Catastrophic shifts and lethal thresholds in a propagating front model of unstable tumour progression
Daniel R. Amor, Ricard V. Solé
Unstable dynamics characterizes the evolution of most solid tumors. Because of an increased failure of maintaining genome integrity, a cumulative increase in the levels of gene mut…
