Online now: On the multiscale dynamics of punctuated evolution dlvr.it/T7fQ1Y

Ah….Pattern and Process: Punctuated patterns across disparate domains, with different underlying causalities. Fantastic to be a part of this paper by a great team headed up by Sergi Valverde🌍(under a blue sky) ! Thank you Sergi!

How does complexity arise in (macro)evolution? Is it a continuous or a stepwise process? What about hierarchies? Check this new Trends in Ecology & Evolution review led by Sergi Valverde🌍(under a blue sky) on the eldredge and Gould's Theory of Punctuated Equilibrium across scales. cell.com/trends/ecology…

Claudia Sheinbaum is Mexico’s 1st female President Climate scientist, feminist, leftist & pro-Palestinian Jew She has a PHD & shared a Nobel prize Her Republican US neighbours will not attend her inauguration - who cares? Congratulations Mexico Congratulations President Claudia

#Anthropocene may be an event, but it transforms the entire planet. Many species will face #extinction, and survivors will have to evolve rapidly. Our latest Trends in Ecology & Evolution shows how #PunctuatedEvolution will emerge from species to societies in our era dlvr.it/T7fQ1Y

I am really happy to receive the 'Outstanding Thesis' award by CSIC! My time at the Complex Systems Lab Complex Systems Lab (at Institute of Evolutionary Biology (IBE)) was truly amazing. Many thanks to my supervisors Ricard Solé, JosepSardanyes, & Nuria Condee-Pueyo! Thesis: hdl.handle.net/10803/673774

Can a virus help uncover Turing patterns in nature? In a new paper, researchers show how the tulip breaking virus triggers the expression of a pigment that can display a broad range of (observable) stripe patterns @philipcball Salva Duran-Nebreda Stuart Newman biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

1. Neuralink's grand vision of augmenting normal humans has a serious problem: we probably have "merged" with computers as much as we can. Humans are surprisingly limited in terms of input/output to ~10 bits per second *regardless* of medium (even pure thought, etc).

A study reveals that viral evolution can undergo rapid bursts without external factors, with duplication events- and not just mutations-playing crucial roles in facilitating these innovations. #VirusEvolution #PunctuatedEvolution #Genomics academic.oup.com/ve/article/doi…

Mathematical reasoning could lead to new insights into the universal characteristics of living systems. For 3.8 billion years, evolution has followed a branching tree pattern, from simple bacteria to complex life forms. But what if the structure of these evolutionary trees

We found a way to implant bacteria 🦠 in fungi 🍄and used it to induce artificial endosymbiosis. Read all about it in our newest research paper nature . nature.com/articles/s4158…

Happy to see our newest iteration on the complex and fascinating world of the hierarchical punctuated evolution published in "Palaeontology" 😃 cc: Niles Eldredge , João Thank you Sergi Valverde🌍(under a blue sky) for excellently organizing all our work!

Why doesn’t evolution follow a path of constant adaptation? Over the past 50 years, punctuated equilibrium has expanded leading to a unified framework for punctuated evolution across scales—from genes to ecosystems & our planet. Our new collaboration at doi.org/10.1111/pala.1…

Recent article investigates how combining existing elements can drive explosive growth in population, GDP, & innovation, confirming our past findings on how recombination leads to hyperbolic patenting dynamics.🔗(1) arxiv.org/abs/2411.03394… (2) doi.org/10.1371/journa… #singularity

Cool new article on the punctuational nature of metastasising cancer process! doi.org/10.1098/rspb.2… This study strengthens our conjectured universality of the punctuational change, so called 'punctuated evolution'. cell.com/trends/ecology… doi.org/10.1111/pala.1…
