Alan Turing: Pioneer of Mathematical Biology
Alan Turing is well-known for his work on the Enigma code in World War II, and his theoretical work underpinning computer science. But he is less well-known for his pioneering work on one of the great challenges of biology – how do complex living organisms develop from tiny collections of cells?
This lecture will discuss Turing’s ground-breaking work in this area, showing how patterns like a leopard’s spots or a zebra’s stripes can occur in nature.
A lecture by Sarah Hart recorded on 6 June 2023 at David Game College, London
The transcript and downloadable versions of the lecture are available from the Gresham College website:
