Often when describing patterns, they are placed in one of two categories: organic or geometric. Organic designs are ones ...

Tessellations aren’t just eye-catching patterns—they can be used to crack complex mathematical problems. By repeatedly reflecting shapes to tile a surface, researchers uncovered a method that links ...

Quantitative approaches are used increasingly in evolutionary developmental biology ('evo-devo'). In particular, geometric morphometrics is widely used to quantify the shape of organisms or their ...
