Photo of a slide saying: A theoretical perspective • Francis Crick: "the job of theorists, especially in biology, is to suggest new experiments". (Crick 1988) • A bit narrow. • The role of theory is to suggest: 1. New concepts, abstractions and models 2. New hypotheses, perspectives and interpretations 3. New ways of measurement • New experiments follow. • Evolvability is a new concept (arguably), and it is associated with new perspectives and questions about the evolutionary process. • Some of these questions from far back, but evolvability provides an abstraction, an umbrella, for a certain class of questions about evolution.
