Answer

Extended evolutionary synthesis (EES) is a recent school of thought in evolutionary biology, developed by Gerd B. Müller and his collaborators. EES seeks to integrate evolutionary theory with the new knowledge of epigenetics and developmental biology, and to understand how evolution can generate complex traits and organisms. EES also seeks to understand the origins of novelty in evolution, and the role of natural selection in the evolution of complex traits.
