Biology
Debian Science Biology packages
This metapackage will install Debian Science packages related to
Biology. You might also be interested in the field::biology debtag.
This metapackage makes use of the packages med-bio and med-bio-dev
(for development of biological applications) which are maintained
by Debian Med - another Debian Pure Blend. If you are a biologist
you are most probably interested in the Debian Med project which
deals with biology and medicine in much more detail then the more
general Debian Science.
The list to the right includes various software projects which are of some interest to the Debian Science Project. Currently, only a few of them are available as Debian packages. It is our goal, however, to include all software in Debian Science which can sensibly add to a high quality Debian Pure Blend.
For a better overview of the project's availability as a Debian package, each head row has a color code according to this scheme:
If you discover a project which looks like a good candidate for Debian Science
to you, or if you have prepared an unofficial Debian package, please do not hesitate to
send a description of that project to the Debian Science mailing list

Avida is an auto-adaptive genetic system designed
primarily for use as a platform in Digital or
Artificial Life research. In lay terms, Avida is a
digital world in which simple computer programs
mutate and evolve.
Avida allows us to study questions and perform
experiments in evolutionalry dynamics and
theoretical biology that are intractable in real
biological system.

Critterding is a "Petri dish" universe in 3D that demonstrates
evolving artificial life. Critters start out with completely
random brains and bodies, but will automatically start evolving
into something with much better survival skills.
