Evolution and Development serves as a voice for the rapidly growing research community at the interface of evolutionary and developmental biology. The exciting re-integration of these two fields, after almost a century's separation, holds much promise as the focus of a broader synthesis of biological thought. Evolution & Development publishes works that address a diversity of evolution/development questions in a wide range of systems. The journal welcomes papers from evo-devo biologists reflecting such approaches as paleontology, population biology, developmental biology, molecular evolution, and genetics, but also encourages submissions from professionals in other fields where relevant research is being carried out, from theoretical biology to ecology to the history and philosophy of science.

進化和發展在進化和發育生物學的界面上為快速增長的研究群體提供了一種聲音。經過近一個世紀的分離，這兩個領域令人興奮的重新整合，有望成為更廣泛的生物思想綜合研究的重點。《進化與發展》出版的作品，在廣泛的系統中解決了各種各樣的進化/發展問題。該雜志歡迎evo-devo生物學家的論文，這些論文反映了古生物學、人口生物學、發育生物學、分子進化和遺傳學等方面的研究方法，但也鼓勵正在進行相關研究的其他領域的專業人士提交論文，從理論生物學到生態學，再到科學的歷史和哲學。
