The Baldwin effect under spatial isolation and autonomous reproduction
The impact of learning on evolution in dynamic environments undergoes recognized stages of the Baldwin Effect although its cause is not clear. To identify it experimentally, we de...

Genetic algorithms are suitable for driving microbial ecosystems in desirable directions
The behavior of natural, biological ecosystems is for a large part determined by environmental conditions. It should therefore be possible to experimentally manipulate such condit...
