Précis of cognitive gadgets: the cultural evolution of thinking by Heyes, C

“…The framework employed, cultural evolutionary psychology, a descendant of evolutionary psychology and cultural evolutionary theory, addresses parallel issues across the cognitive and behavioural sciences. In common with evo-devo and the extended evolutionary synthesis, cultural evolutionary psychology underlines the importance of developmental processes and environmental factors in the emergence of human cognition. …”

E DAÍ? by Marcel Bartholo

“…, diante da constatação de mais de oito mil mortes (naquele momento), mesmo perante o caos e o colapso da saúde pública do país, foi o estopim para esta pintura. Devo confessar que a ideia não foi original. Diversos amigos Caricaturistas e Chargistas já haviam representado o presidente e sua total falta de empatia diante das mortes, mas eu senti que também precisava fazer. e, no momento, me senti bem. …”

The phylogenetic position of Acoela as revealed by the complete mitochondrial genome of <it>Symsagittifera roscoffensis</it> by Littlewood D Timothy J, Jondelius Ulf, Bourlat Sarah J, Bailly Xavier, Mwinyi Adina, Podsiadlowski Lars

“…This led to the view that features of acoels might reflect those of the last common ancestor of Bilateria, and resulted in several evo-devo studies trying to interpret bilaterian evolution using acoels as a proxy model for the "Urbilateria".…”

La encrucijada de la teoría sintética: expansionismo o nueva síntesis teórica by Dressino, Vicente

“…En este sentido, se plantean dos corrientes principales, una sostiene la expansión de la teoría a través del agregado de nuevas disciplinas como la epigenética y evo-devo. Por otro lado, los partidarios de la resíntesis proponen la necesidad de una nueva teoría sin los supuestos teóricos de la anterior. …”
