The first molecular demonstration that embryonic patterning of mammalian fingers is driven by
a Turing reaction - diffusion system, and that the relevant circuits are functionally conserved from fish to tetrapods.
The main implication of the work is the understanding of the mechanisms underlying the formation of biological three - dimensional nano - patterns, demonstrating the first example of
Turing reaction - diffusion model acting in the bio-nanoworld.
Another finding was that all the possible forms of the patterns directly matched to the array of patterns predicted by the famous
Turing reaction - diffusion model published in 1952, what Russian scientists confirmed not by mere observation, but by mathematical modeling as well.

A
Turing machine would then not only include a part of its environment but would be both constituted by its environment as well as constituted by its
reaction to its environment.
At Brandeis, Seth Fraden, professor of physics, and Irv Epstein, the Henry F. Fischbach Professor of Chemistry, created rings of synthetic, cell - like structures with activating and inhibiting chemical
reactions to test
Turing's model.
In the 1950s, Alan
Turing, mathematician and computing pioneer, developed the
Reaction - Diffusion Model, which deals with morphology — the study of how creatures take their biological forms.
Near the end of his life,
Turing wrote his first and last paper on biology and chemistry, detailing how a type of chemical
reaction ought to produce many patterns seen in nature.
