A century ago, D'Arcy Wentworth Thompson crystallized this question in his opus On Growth and Form (Thompson, 1917) using a series of biological examples and geometric and physical analogies to ask how biological forms arise during development and across evolution. In light of the advances in molecular and cellular biology since then, a succinct modern view of the question states: how do genes encode geometry?en-USJournal Article2019-09-1210.1242/dev.161125
