Dr. Pierrick Bourrat is Senior Lecturer and DECRA Fellow at Macquarie University, Sydney, Australia. He specializes in philosophy of biology. His work focuses on core concepts of evolutionary theory, such as fitness and heritability, as well as evolutionary transitions in individuality.
In this episode, we start by talking about evolutionary transitions in individuality. We discuss particle-level and collective-level inheritance. We explore the concept of heritability. We discuss what an adaptation is. We address some criticisms of evolutionary psychology. We talk about levels of selection and multilevel selection. We discuss epigenetics, and how to conceptualize genes. Finally, we discuss whether we need an extended evolutionary synthesis.
