=6 Multi-level modeling overview=

In this section we will focus on multi-level modelling. So far we have looked at multi-level phenomena, but the modeling was done at a lower level with some predefined fitness criterion and then we looked at how the levels below organize themselves.

Now we will approach multiple levels with a more explicit emphasis on multi-level modeling:
 * 1) **Multi-level modeling: but only single-level behaviour understanding (LAC OPERON)**
 * 2) **Multi-level modeling to understand multi-level behaviour (gene regulation and evolution):** we know we have a complex genotype-phenotype mapping, so here we increase the mapping.

In this section:
 * 1) Modeling gene regulaton (lac operon)
 * Monster of Loch Ness syndrome
 * Lac operon evolution (van Hoek)
 * 1) Genetic pattern formation and modelling morphogenesis (Paulien's critters)
 * 2) Multi-level modeling (conclusion)
 * 3) Phenotype first evolution
 * 4) Positional information (EMPTY)
 * 5) Turing patterns (EMPTY)
 * 6) Dyctostelium life-cycle (EMPTY)
 * 7) Polyspondilium discoideum (EMPTY)
 * 8) Who wants to become a stalk (EMPTY)
