Stay tuned for a full tweet thread, hopefully tomorrow! But for now, a part of Fig. 1 showing that evolution is able to move populations to regions of the genotype-phenotype map that mirrors fluctuating environments! And it does it without a detectable decrease in robustness.

🚨 New Preprint Alert 🚨 Informed Down-Sampled Lexicase Selection: Identifying productive training cases for efficient problem solving. Authors: @RyanBoldi*, Martin Briesch*, Dominik Sobania, @amlalejini , Thomas Helmuth, Franz Rothlauf, @CharlesOfria & @leespector

I'm teaching a new class called Measles, Memes, and Misinformation for @UMICHCS and @UMichEEB with no pre-reqs! You'll learn some key concepts in disease dynamics, networks, and bullshit (@callin_bull). Syllabus to come. Respond with your favorite example!! Plz RT!

We have a fun new paper officially out today, led by @amlalejini, @emilyldolson, and @AnyaEVostinar! If you know me, or seen me talk, you know I started off doing this evolution thing as a computer scientist... 1/n elifesciences.org/articles/79665

➡️ Finally, @LuisZaman's keynote at @2020ALIFE seeded ideas for our initial exploratory experiments: youtu.be/kWxwLVMS180

It has been an absolute blast to work on this with @FergusonAJ17, @NkrumahGrant, and @CharlesOfria! I'll give some (rambling) details below👇
