Genome Architecture and the Dynamics of Populations
This study proposes a focused inquiry into genome architecture as it intersects with popu…
Genome ArchitectureView BookReaders encounter neural circuits through the revealing, and sometimes contested, perspective of measurement challenges. The planned chapters distinguish mechanisms from metaphors, empirical findings from predictions, and strong evidence from plausible conjecture. The emphasis is on neural circuits viewed through measurement challenges, with primary research, experimental methods, ecological or clinical context, and explanatory graphics. Which claims can be tested independently, and which remain interpretive?
