Gerald Edelman
Gerald Maurice Edelman (July 1, 1929 – May 17, 2014) was an Americanbiologist. He shared the 1972 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine with Rodney Robert Porter. They won the award for their work on the immune system.[3] Edelman's Nobel Prize-winning research concerned discovery of the structure of antibody molecules.[4]
Edelman died from Parkinson's disease and prostate cancer in La Jolla, California, aged 84.[5]

Topobiology
Welcome to the Wikiversity learning project about topobiology. The concept of topobiology was developed by Gerald Edelman as a theoretical basis for morphogenesis. This project provides learning resources that help Wikiversity participants explore topobiology.
Project format
[edit | edit source]Initially, the focus of this project is discussion of published biomedical research articles related to the topic of topobiology.
Introduction to topobiology
[edit | edit source]Each human begins as a single cell. After a few days, the early embryo has two types of cells, one specialized to interact with maternal uterine cells, the other is a bundle of stem cells that will eventually divide and give rise to hundreds of specialized cell types that are found in a new born baby. Topobiology is a theory for explaining how a single cell can give rise to a complex multi-cellular organism. Topobiology is particularly concerned with how nearby cells take stock of their local environment and adjust their patterns of gene expression to match their position in the developing embryo. Topobiology is thus concerned with cell surface proteins that allow cells to sense their surroundings and transmit control signals to the nucleus. In some cases, cells respond to these si
