This study develops a theory to predict how rapidly adapting populations select for fitness tradeoffs in fluctuating environments, showing that mutations with larger tradeoffs can be favored despite lower geometric mean fitness.

This study shows that B cells in human tonsils migrate locally during affinity maturation at a consistent rate, contributing to diversity while balancing selection.

The paper predicts early evolutionary steps in randomly assembled microbial communities by analyzing mutation fitness and coexistence probabilities.

The paper shows C. elegans piRNAs functionally target sequence space randomly, enabling broad silencing of nonself sequences.
