Thanks Sergi!

Exciting paper from Sergi showing similarity in the scientific progress and the technological evolution! 🧪 #EvoBio

Here there is a direct link to our paper: "Structural Changes in Gene Ontology Reveal Modular and Complex Representations of Biological Function" doi.org/10.1093/molb...

I'm very grateful to Rosa Fernandez for inviting me to the 2024 LifeHub conference in La Cristalera, which inspired this article. @molbioevol.bsky.social 🔗 Read the full paper here: academic.oup.com/mbe/article/... #Genomics #Ontology #CulturalEvolution

Can the structure of knowledge evolve like life itself? In our new MBE paper, we show that the Gene Ontology evolves through mechanisms shared with cultural and technological systems—reuse, modularity, and curator-driven restructuring. Here’s what we found: 🧵

Again, face to face with chaos. Now in a simple non-autonomous model with cooperation and habitat loss. Working hard in the manuscript !

Marcos Rodríguez, Irene Cantallops, Pilar Domingo-Calap @pilardomingoc.bsky.social & Josep Sardanyés @josepsardanyes.bsky.social from I2SysBio published a paper about quantifying dynamics of #Klebsiella and its #phages, focused on phage-resistant mutants 🦠🧪 #microsky @csic.es @ucciuv.bsky.social

Our first collaboration with @josepsardanyes.bsky.social, first of many more! Great job Marcos and Irene.

How can biological systems anticipate future events? In our new paper with @jordiplam.bsky.social, we show how a simple genetic circuit can predict future trends through a simple (and perhaps widespread) mechanism @drmichaellevin.bsky.social @koseskalab.bsky.social www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Another day, another funky gene regulatory network behaviour! In our latest paper, we show how the mushroom bifurcation can encode an ultra-long biochemical timer. Even more interestingly, extrinsic noise can be used to improve timing precision! 🤯 @mathsmaret.bsky.social @josepsardanyes.bsky.social

My first paper in systems biology is in PRE! We investigate how local nearby bifurcations lead to synergies in critical slowing down, specifically the case of mushroom bifurcations in gene regulatory networks! journals.aps.org/pre/abstract... @perez-carrasco.bsky.social @josepsardanyes.bsky.social

First research article showing a nonlinear increase in transient times when local bifurcations get close. #Nonlinearity #Transients 👻 + 👻 != 👻👻 journals.aps.org/pre/abstract...

Research on cultural and technological evolution is thriving at our Institute of Evolutionary Biology, which makes me very happy. It is an exciting time for multidisciplinary approaches to biological evolution! #CultEvo

Math students attending my seminar on nonlinear dynamics in Oviedo, Spain. Very exciting to introduce bifurcation and chaos theory to them

Ready to give a seminar about nonlinear dynamics and complexity at the math students from the Science Faculty of Oviedo University

Nearby local bifurcations interact sinergistically lengthening transients and enhancing critical showing down www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Are the major evolutionary transitions describable as phase transitions, as in statistical physics? A great example of this is the transition to eukaryotic cells, as shown by this excellent paper by Jordi Bascompte and co-workers europepmc.org/api/fulltext...

I am very surprised with some Editors, some of them of very reputated journals. I am not sure whether they know what an Editor of a scientific journal is expected to do...

I'll be posting some quotes from my book in this thread. The book is overpriced due to a knee-jerk reaction to the pandemic in 2022. But you can get 30% off using code P325 at press.princeton.edu/books/paperb...

I just passed 500 followers, and would like to thank every one of you! I didn't come here from Twitter, so I started this thing more or less from scratch last year (with a false start at Cohost). It's great to see that there is still so much interest around my favourite classic computer! :)

Punctuated evolution (PE) explains how stable systems undergo rapid changes, similar to the instability of Twitter, which drives the Blue Sky migration. In our "Evolutionary Anthropology" article, we argue that PE is about biocultural evolution as much as fossils. doi.org/10.1002/evan...

In this article we provide a wide review on regime shifts and tipping points, and implications in ecosystems management. We also introduce the so-called Late Warning Signals, with @blaividiella.bsky.social www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...
