Thread of my recent first first author publication. Here, we explored how modularity affects robustness and introduction biases in computer simulations of gene regulatory networks (GRNs).

This semester I've been teaching "Economic Inequality and Growth" at @UCBerkeley. This is a thread with some of my favorite graphs.

First, the headline everyone's-seen-it graph: falling then rising income inequality in Anglophone countries.

Our latest preprint https://t.co/xdk1qOpiBW explains why fitness can be defined in so many ways, and which version(s) you should use for what. See threads in other places for explainers @geeklhem @pierrickbourrat

Our latest paper on background selection is out at @GenomeBiolEvol. https://t.co/dzxRX7Hd7j. Thread explainers at other 2 sites. Briefly: the 1-locus model of independent sites is dead when the deleterious mutation rate exceeds 1. @JosephMatheson2

@PsyduckResearch @mexpopgen Con gusto carnal, aquí andamos al pendiente

[Ulises Hernández @Uliseshmc]

Tarde pero seguro, great experience presenting my work at @mexpopgen. Wonderful organization and amazing talks. I always feel honored to being able to interact with such wonderful community.

First time I get the cover of a magazine and it's in @Nature! Had this idea to illustrate the diversity captured by the MX Biobank across Mexico and brilliant designer @mauguz33 brought it to life inspired by indigenous Huichol art from near my home town. https://t.co/OHeBg9ZRzu

@c_espinosas Muchas felicidades Carlos! Muy bien merecido 👌

Great experience at my first poster presentation at #SMBE2023. Thanks a lot to the organizers and all the amazing people I talked with! No puedo esperar a #SMBE2024 in México!

Our latest preprint looks at long-term proteome evolution phenomena and asks macroevolutionary levels of selection questions https://t.co/tXQjcYKwCv @JennyJames91 @PaulNel42379483 1/11

New publication alert🚨: This paper is a result of a collaboration with John Wiens that started as my PhD rotation project.
Here we provide first phylogenetic support for the haplodiploidy hypothesis. (1/n)

This work was possible thanks to the work of @c_espinosas and Luis Posadas Vidales. I feel grateful of having the opportunity of working with such great collaborators.

Thread of my recent first first author publication. Here, we explored how modularity affects robustness and introduction biases in computer simulations of gene regulatory networks (GRNs).

[Ulises Hernández @Uliseshmc]

We also found that this introduction bias influences the evolutionary outcomes of evolutionary simulations of GRNs. Therefore, our work explores how developmental mechanisms can influence the direction of evolutionary outcomes in biological systems.
