The systemic evolutionary theory of the origin of cancer (SETOC): an update by Antonio Mazzocca, Giovanni Ferraro, Giovanni Misciagna

“…Abstract The Systemic Evolutionary Theory of the Origin of Cancer (SETOC) is a recently proposed theory founded on two primary principles: the cooperative and endosymbiotic process of cell evolution as described by Lynn Margulis, and the integration of complex systems operating in eukaryotic cells, which is a core concept in systems biology. …”

Toward Molecular Level of the “Salmonella-Victim” Ecology, Genetics, and Evolution by S.N. Rumyantsev

“…In this article, some key findings concerning ecology, molecular ecology, and cell level of the Salmonella infection genetics are summarized and interpreted from the viewpoint of evolutionary theory with certitude that this approach can help to decipher the undiscovered secrets of Salmonella infections epidemiology and pathogenesis, as well as the clinical course and severity, and to select ways for fighting against Salmonella.…”

Jérôme Deyris, De la stabilité des prix à la stabilisation du climat ? L’économie politique du verdissement des banques centrales by Jérôme Deyris

“…My thesis combines three theoretical approaches to analyse the rise of green central banking: the political economy of varieties of capitalism, the economic sociology of organisations and bureaucracy, and the evolutionary theory of institutional change. I show that while the type of greening, its translation into instruments and the ways in which it is legitimised all depend on the institutional context in which the central bank is embedded, this relationship is less strict and less unidirectional than it might seem. …”

Les monstres d’Aubrey Beardsley et le « grotesque darwinien » by Catherine Delyfer

“…Arguably, the teratological imaginary of this period owes much to Charles Darwin and his evolutionary theory. This seems especially true in the case of Aubrey Beardsley’s graphic artwork where grotesque monsters abound. …”

Evolutionary Synthesis in the Social Sciences and Humanities by Mesoudi Alex

“…I argue that the quantitative nature of Darwinian methods (e.g. statistical analysis, formal models, laboratory experiments) has resulted in a significantly better understanding of cultural phenomena than many traditional non-evolutionary, non-scientific approaches to cultural change in the social sciences and humanities. Evolutionary theory also provides a synthetic framework within which different branches of the social sciences and humanities may be integrated, equivalent to the “evolutionary synthesis” that integrated the biological sciences in the early 20th century.…”

Analysis on the Synergy Evolutionary Development of the Collecting, Distributing, and Transporting System of Railway Heavy Haul Transportation by Fenling Feng, Dan Lan, Liuwen Yang

“…A synergy evolutionary model of the collecting, distributing, and transporting system of railway heavy haul transportation is built by introducing synergy-related concepts and applying synergy evolutionary theory. Then spline interpolation method, numerical differential five-point formula, and method of least squares are used to solve synergistic coefficient, while fourth-order Rugge-kutta method and fourth-order Adams linear implicit formula method are used to solve coevolutionary curve of the system. …”

Science et Fiction by Annie Escuret

“…Another paradoxical figure of the century is Charles Dickens whose works foreground outdated scientific knowledge rather than Darwin’s evolutionary theory. This essay also studies other great figures of the century like Meredith, Hardy and Wells. …”

Evolutionary Computation and Its Applications in Neural and Fuzzy Systems by Biaobiao Zhang, Yue Wu, Jiabin Lu, K.-L. Du

“…Evolutionary computation is a general-purpose stochastic global optimization approach under the universally accepted neo-Darwinian paradigm, which is a combination of the classical Darwinian evolutionary theory, the selectionism of Weismann, and the genetics of Mendel. …”

Alice’s Non-Anthropocentric Ethics: Lewis Carroll as a Defender of Animal Rights by Anna Kérchy

“…The vanishing and reappearing Cheshire Cat represents language that is ideologically manipulative and poetically subversive and distinguishes the speaking human subject from animals (Lecercle 1994); the Caucus Race led by the Dodo Bird is an absurd rehearsal of the Darwinian evolutionary theory’s competitive struggle for survival (Lovell-Smith 2007), while the dormouse in the teapot evokes how the ownership of certain animals could indicate class belonging (Ritvo 1987). …”

Intratumor heterogeneity: models of malignancy emergence and evolution by R. A. Ivanov, S. A. Lashin

“…From the perspective of evolutionary theory, tumors are complex ecosystems that evolve through a process of microevolution influenced by genetic mutations, epigenetic changes, tumor microenvironment factors, and therapy­induced changes. …”

Liberties of the genome: insertions of mitochondrial DNA fragments into nuclear genome by M. V. Golubenko, V. P. Puzyrev

“…The constant flow of functionally inactive DNA sequences from mitochondria into the nucleus and its significance could be studied in view of the modern concepts of evolutionary theory suggesting non-adaptive complexity and the key role of stochastic processes in the formation of genomic structure.…”

Modeling the Saddle-like GeV–TeV Spectrum of HESS J1809–193: Gamma Rays Arising from Reverse-shocked Pulsar Wind Nebula? by Jiaxu Sun, Yang Chen, Yiwei Bao, Xiao Zhang, Xin Zhou

“…We suggest that the intriguing GeV–TeV spectral energy distribution (SED) of HESS J1809–193 and Fermi-LAT source J1810.3–1925e is very likely to be the gamma-ray signature of PWN J1809–193 in light of the scenario that the PWN was struck by the reverse shock of the parent supernova remnant. Based on the evolutionary theory of PWNe, we consider that, when the PWN was disrupted during a collision by the reverse shock, some VHE electrons escaped impulsively. …”

Mapping and Analysis of Exit Strategy Research: A Bibliometrics and Systematic Review by Alireza Valipour, Ali Heidari, Mohammad Ali Shahhosseini, Asadollah Kordnaiej

“…Conclusion The research landscape is dominated by studies on exit drivers and exit consequences, often explained through frameworks such as agency theory, transaction cost economics (TCE), resource-based view (RBV), and evolutionary theory. Financial research focuses on the exit's impact on subsidiary performance and parent company financials, while economics explores industry factors influencing exit decisions. …”
