Evolvability at CAS

A project with the theme "Evolvability: A New and Unifying Concept in Evolutionary Biology?" located at the Centre for Advanced Study (@CASOslo).

[Kjetil Lysne Voje @KLVoje]

Grateful for receiving an @ERC_Research StG to study phenotypic evolution across different timescales. Thanks to great colleagues who gave feedback on my proposal. I will soon be looking for a postdoc and two PhDs to join the project. @CEESUiO @UniOslo https://t.co/cILZqY6k6K

Today @CloJosselin gave a great talk with the title "#Evolvability of predominantly selfing species: on the importance of residual allogamy, additivity and dominance" @CASOslo!

[Evolvability at CAS @EvolvabilityCAS]

Thanks to Frietson Galis for her talk on "A macroevolutionary perspective on developmental constraints in animals" @CASOslo today!

[Evolvability at CAS @EvolvabilityCAS]

David Houle gave a great talk at @CASOslo today, with the title "#Evolvability of sexual dimorphism under antagonistic and concordant selection". New and interesting theory!

[Evolvability at CAS @EvolvabilityCAS]

Thanks to @ArnaudLeRouzic for a great talk at @CASOslo today! The talk was about "#Evolution of Canalization in Complex Genetic Architectures".

[Evolvability at CAS @EvolvabilityCAS]

Today we enjoyed a great talk and following discussion by Rachael Morgan (@RachLMorgan13) on “#Evolution of upper thermal tolerance in zebrafish” at @CASOslo.

[Evolvability at CAS @EvolvabilityCAS]

Thanks to Geir H. Bolstad (@GBolstad) for a great talk on "A two-locus epistatic system and the #evolution of sexual size dimorphism in Atlantic salmon" here at @CASOslo.

[Evolvability at CAS @EvolvabilityCAS]

Thanks to Øystein H. Opedal (@oysteinopedal) for his great talk "The #Evolvability of Flowers" and all the interesting discussions this week at @CASOslo.

[Øystein H. Opedal @oysteinopedal]

On the train to Oslo, preparing my seminar for @EvolvabilityCAS tomorrow.

[Evolvability at CAS @EvolvabilityCAS]

Last week @jarrod_hadfield visited us at @CASOslo and gave two very interesting talks on the subject “Inheritance and Selection in Social Systems”. Part one on "Social #Evolution" and part two focusing on "Genetic and Environmental Skew".

[Evolvability at CAS @EvolvabilityCAS]

Thanks to Marcin Piwczynski for his great on "Variation and constraints in plant evolution: a case of seedlings" at @CASOslo.

[Evolvability at CAS @EvolvabilityCAS]

Thanks to Fred Nijhout for his visit to @CASOslo. He gave two very interesting talks. One on "Robustness and #Evolvability" and the other on "The Control of Polyphenic Development in Insects".

[Kjetil Lysne Voje @KLVoje]

Ecology, evolution and the fossil record: In my new paper in Evolution, I investigate if a diatom lineage follows evolutionary trait dynamics compatible with hypotheses for how the adaptive landscape may change when a population enters a new environment. https://t.co/GY1xF4SB7g

[Evolvability at CAS @EvolvabilityCAS]

We ended the fall at @CASOslo with a great talk by one of our group leaders, Christope Pélabon, on "#Evolvability and Allometry - A special look at animal weapons". Looking forward to the spring semester, Happy Holidays!

[Evolvability at CAS @EvolvabilityCAS]

Thanks to Philipp Mitteröcker for his visit! Yesterday we enjoyed his talk on "Geometries of #Evolvability" at @CASOslo. Disclaimer: we verified that he didn't get attacked by the polar bear.

[Evolvability at CAS @EvolvabilityCAS]

Yesterday we had the pleasure of attending a talk by one of our group leaders Thomas F. Hansen about "Quantitative genetics, epistasis and #evolvability" at @CASOslo.

A special issue of JEZ-B on the #Evolution of #Evolution is just out. One of our fellows, Ingo Brigandt, is guest editor! Chek it out here: https://t.co/bac7GgFKn5
