During the fellowship, E. S. will be working on the following projects:

1. Computability of (almost) arbitrarily complex, Genetic Regulatory Network-based developmental systems, by the application of a mapping to neural networks
2. Model of genomic expansion as an evaluation of the mitochondrion-early hypothesis
3. Syncytial organization of the Urkaryote
4. Ezhov-mechanism for replication of attractors from one neural network to another
5. Ageing as a possible evolvability component: analysis by cellular automation and metapopulation models
