Laurent Loison
Laurent Loison is a historian of biology and a CNRS researcher at the SPHERE laboratory (Paris). His work covers most of the history of biology as an autonomous science from the end of the 18th century to the present day. In his project to characterize this autonomization, he focuses primarily on the three major theoretical fields of biology: cell theory, evolutionary theory and molecular biology. In recent years, a significant part of his work has been devoted to the issue of the causal role of plasticity within Darwinian theory, which led to the publication of a book by Routledge in 2025: Beyond Lamarckism, Plasticity in Darwinian Evolution, 1890-1970.
