DESCRIPTION:Simple organisms like bacteria possess the ability to do all t
 he functions of life while being but a single cell. We\, of course\, have 
 evolved to have many different types of cells specialised for various func
 tions (nerves\, muscle\, eyes\, etc.). One of the most fascinating questio
 ns in evolutionary biology concerns what pressures led single cell organis
 ms to evolve into multicellular ones\, and to divide up life's tasks among
  different cells. This lecture will explain how concepts and experimental 
 techniques from mathematics and physics can help us answer this question.
