• Critical Learning Periods in Deep Neural Networks (2017, background): “The evolutionary advantage of all these phenomena has been attributed to the delicate balance between adaptivity and robustness that has to be struck in order to maximize fitness in a mutable environment, using early experience as a guide (2, 13).”
• Effects of learning on evolution: robustness, innovation and speciation (2013, background): “The most convincing data linking imprinting to speciation are for indigobirds (Vidua spp.), which is an unusual lineage of brood parasites.”
• Resilience in farm animals: biology, management, breeding and implications for animal welfare (2016, background): “This observation can be generalised to the notion that proximate mechanisms require a different level of enquiry than the ultimate biological functions they act on (Bateson and Gluckman 2011).”
• The extended evolutionary synthesis: its structure, assumptions and predictions (2015, background): “For example, phenotypic plasticity and non-genetic inheritance contributed to the adaptation of the house finch to cold climates during its North American range expansion ([68]; see [27,28,49,101,105,107] for further examples).”
• An overview of the evolutionary causes and consequences of behavioural plasticity (2013, background): “Adaptive phenotypic plasticity, the ability of a genotype to vary its phenotype across environments, and thus maintain high performance across that environmental gradient, is important for survival in variable environments (Schlichting & Pigliucci 1998; West-Eberhard 2003; Bateson & Gluckman 2011).”
• A New Paradigm for Developmental Science: Relationism and Relational-Developmental Systems (2013, background): “Accordingly, the potential for plasticity (Batson & Gluckman, 2011; Charney, 2012); WestEberhard, 2003) of intraindividual change is a hallmark of Relational-Developmental-Systems.”
• The Return of the Organism as a Fundamental Explanatory Concept in Biology (2014, background): “Inheritance, development, and adaptation are unified because they are all consequences of the distinctive capacities of organisms, such as their plasticity and robustness (Bateson and Gluckman 2011).”
• Towards a Developmental Turn in Evolutionary Economic Geography? (2015, background): “Central to this new focus is the interplay between the developmental features of robustness and plasticity, and how these processes themselves evolve (BATESON and GLUCKMAN, 2011).”
• The Extended Evolutionary Synthesis, Ethnography, and the Human Niche (2016, background): “…a move away from focusing exclusively on natural selection, genetic-based fitness, and their relationships to individuals to a systems approach in analyses of evolutionary histories and processes (Bateson and Gluckman 2011; Hinde 1976; Laland et al. 2015; Lewontin 1983; Oyama, Griffiths, and Gray.”
