About Richard A. Watson

Richard A. Watson, With an exceptional h-index of 38 and a recent h-index of 19 (since 2020), a distinguished researcher at University of Southampton, specializes in the field of evolution.

His recent articles reflect a diverse array of research interests and contributions to the field:

Agency, Goal-Directed Behavior, and Part-Whole Relationships in Biological Systems

Natural Induction: Spontaneous adaptive organisation without natural selection

An ability to respond begins with inner alignment: How phase synchronisation effects transitions to higher levels of agency

The collective intelligence of evolution and development

Design for an individual: connectionist approaches to the evolutionary transitions in individuality

Deep Optimisation: Transitioning the Scale of Evolutionary Search by Inducing and Searching in Deep Representations

Identifying causes of social evolution: contextual analysis, the price approach, and multilevel selection

Development and selective grain make plasticity'take the lead'in adaptive evolution
