Alan Turing spent his final years working at Manchester University. A little known feature of this work is his interest in morphogenesis. This article describes that work, arguing that it is both analogous to Turing's computing work (in that it represented a radical break into a new field with little reference to previous work) and discontinuous with it (since Turing did not make use of any of the "obvious" analogies between programming a computer and programming a gene).
