The paper shows that chimpanzees organize their social relationships similarly to humans, using grooming time as a proxy for relationship intensity.

This study uses a simple microbial co-evolution model to show that mutualism can emerge as a result of evolutionary transitions in ecological interactions.

The paper shows that populations of genetic circuits fail to find the fittest solution in a multilevel genotype-phenotype map when the target phenotype is rare.

The paper evaluates the plausibility of de novo emergence of viroid-like replicons through a theoretical analysis of RNA structure evolution and functional module acquisition.

The paper estimates the relative contributions of selection and loss bias to gene dynamics in prokaryotes using mathematical modeling and comparative genomics.
