For a while (many years!) back, @eseb.bsky.social gave us €€€ to form a Special Topic Network. Formally, the network no longer exists, but informally for sure AND we can now pick the fruits of our labours! Here is one and the next post shows another... Thank you ESEB! 🙏

Modestly, we decided to review a century's worth of theories of balancing selection :) onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

A century of theories of balancing selection
Traits that affect organismal fitness are often highly genetically variable. This genetic variation is vital for populations to adapt to their environments, but it is also surprising given that natur...

Nematode mind: exploring the role of the RNA interference pathway in learning, memory and beyond | Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences
Caenorhabditis nematodes, particularly the well-known Caenorhabditis elegans, have challenged early views of them as hard-wired by demonstrating diverse learning and memory capabilities. This cognitiv...

Finally ready to see the world! Theories of balancing selection - past, present and future: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... A true collaborative effort that brought together theoreticians and empiricists, models, data, and fresh perspectives on how balancing selection can shape genetic variation.
