Denton has published his work in journals such as Nature, Biochemical
Journal, Nature Genetics, BioSystems, Human Genetics, Clinical Genetics, the
Journal of Theoretical Biology, and Biology and Philosophy. He has given
lectures at major universities throughout the world. His current research
focuses on exploring the role and limitation of genes in the generation of cell
form, particularly retinal cells and red blood cells and examining the challenge
posed to Darwinian functionalism by the apparently non adaptive ground plans or
types which underlie much of the adaptive complexity of life. He rejects the
metaphysical basis of the Darwinian framework, “specifically the assumptions
that living organisms are nothing more than machines, and that all properties of
organisms have adaptive significance.”
