Alexandre Guay is Professor of Philosophy of Natural Sciences and Analytical Philosophy at the Université catholique de Louvain, Belgium.; Thomas Pradeu is Full-Time Researcher in Philosophy of Science at the CNRS in Bordeaux, France.

Without a doubt, the individual contributions advance particular individuality debates in valuable ways. There is work that extends several influential approaches to individuality in biology.
