DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Alex Badyaev\nhosted by Fyodor Kondrashov\nAbstract: W
 ith a few notable exceptions there is little cross-talk between evolutiona
 ry theory and control theory of dynamic systems. Yet\, both fields are int
 ensely focused on essentially an identical set of problems – on reconcil
 ing stability and change\, continuity and discreetness\, innovation and co
 mplexity\, and inherency and contingency. Both fields aim to resolve these
  problems by predicting the distribution and kinds of “controls” that 
 either change or regulate complex systems. As a result\, we now have a set
  of parallel solutions to essentially the same problems but from largely n
 on-overlapping starting points\, backgrounds\, and motivations. I will rev
 iew these solutions\, focusing on their empirical manifestations and the i
 nsights they provide into some of the most long-standing issues in evoluti
 onary biology\, including the most enigmatic of them all – the relations
 hip between form and function in development and inheritance.
