- Reposted by Daniel CooneyHappy new year! The second big project of my PhD in Rachel Whitaker's lab is now up! 🎉 We look at how provirus infection affects the evolution of the bacterial chromosome with different types of viral induction – with CRISPRs or antibiotics. Take a peek 🦠 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

- Reposted by Daniel CooneyHi everyone! I'm co-organizing this retreat/workshop June 15-19 for those looking to get started in mathematical/computational modeling of biological processes. Location is a beautiful farm in NC. Please share with students and others who want to build modeling skills. Interdisciplinarity welcome!

- I'm really excited to see this paper by @fernpizza.bsky.social, @baym.lol, et al. This is a great model system for studying multilevel selection, and the experimental work builds nicely on cross-scale theoretical modeling approaches that I've enjoyed learning about over the past few years. 🧵
- Hot off the press! Our latest paper led by @fernpizza.bsky.social, understanding how plasmids evolve inside cells. These small, self-replicating DNA circles live inside bacteria and carry antibiotic resistance genes, but also compete with one another to replicate. 1/ www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...
- Here is one of my favorite papers, "A unifying framework reveals key properties of multilevel selection" by Shishi Luo. Luo highlights examples of multilevel selection and introduces a nested birth-death process to model evolutionary competition across scales. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...
