EvoDevo is happy to announce its support of the Euro Evo Devo 2024 Meeting in Helsinki. Euro Evo Devo Meetings are biennial meetings of the European Society for Evolutionary Developmental Biology (EED) and a major place for researchers to present and discuss their latest findings in evolutionary developmental biology. EvoDevo’s scope is strongly aligning with the meeting and has published many seminal papers in the field. This year the journal has decided to sponsor the Symposium “Neuro-evo-devo I: Emergence of neural structures.”.

In Review: Preprint platform and more
EvoDevo has launched In Review, a new option that provides authors with on-demand information on the status of their manuscript, enables them to share their work with funders and their research community, and allows their colleagues to comment and collaborate - all whilst their manuscript is under review. Full details here.
Featured Article: New patterns of Hox gene expression in Phoronopsis harmeri
The authors of this research discuss the phenomenon of lack of expression of Hox gene during the early development of the phoronid Phoronopsis harmeri which indicates that the larval body develops without positional information from the Hox patterning system. They propose that a new body form was intercalated to the phoronid life cycle by precocious development of the anterior structures or by delayed development of the trunk rudiment in the ancestral phoronid larva.

Aims and scope
EvoDevo publishes high quality articles on a broad range of topics associated with the translation of genotype to phenotype in a phylogenetic context. Understanding the history of life, the evolution of novelty and the generation of form, whether through embryogenesis, budding, or regeneration are amongst the greatest challenges in biology. We support the understanding of these processes through the many complementary approaches that characterize the field of evo-devo.
The focus of the journal is on research that promotes understanding of the pattern and process of morphological evolution.
All articles that fulfill this aim will be welcome, in particular:
- evolution of pattern
- formation comparative gene function/expression
- life history evolution
- homology and character evolution
- comparative genomics
- phylogenetics and palaeontology
