Curious about how evolution takes place? Are you looking for a "first-course" in the subject? My book, Fundamentals of Evolutionary Biology (CRC Press), takes a microbe-first approach and explains how molecular and cellular processes drive evolution.

Our recent work - we show how food is served matters in dictating evolutionary trajectories! bmcecolevol.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.11… and nature.com/articles/s4154…
IIT Bombay@iitbombay

Researchers from the Department of Chemical Engineering, Indian Institute of Technology Bombay (IIT Bombay), replicated evolution in the lab using microbes and feeding them with subtly different sugars, and observing how their adaptations diverge. In two of their recent studies, the team used two microbes, a well-known bacterium, Escherichia coli or E.coli, and a eukaryotic yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, to explore how they process and evolve when identical sugars are served differently. iitb.ac.in/research-highl…

These findings highlight how subtle features of the environment, not just its chemical makeup, can profoundly shape evolution. This matters for microbiome engineering, antibiotic resistance, and understanding natural microbial ecosystems. (5/6)

Resource presentation shapes evolution! In our latest work, we show that chemically identical nutrients can drive different evolutionary responses, just based on how they're presented. Sounds wild? We explain 👇 (1/6)
