BEACON Researchers at Work: Measuring natural selection in flowers
This week’s BEACON Researchers at Work post is by MSU graduate student Raffica La Rosa. Novel traits differ qualitatively from the characters from which they arise, and are generally thought to be adaptive. I study adaptive novel traits by combining … Continue reading
BEACON Researchers at Work: Mock Interviews are Nothing to Mock
This week’s BEACON Researchers at Work blog post is by MSU graduate student Emily Weigel. As a result of my work as a former Future Academic Scholars in Teaching (FAST) Fellow at Michigan State University, I was invited to participate … Continue reading
BEACON Researchers at Work: Gene-phenotype interactions affect speed of adaptation
This week’s BEACON Researchers at Work blog post is by University of Idaho graduate student Tyler Hether. Evolutionary biology has historically approached the genetics of adaptation from two perspectives. From the genetic perspective, focus has been given to population dynamics … Continue reading
BEACON Researchers at Work: Evolution makes software adaptive
This week’s BEACON Researchers at Work post is by MSU graduate student Chad Byers. Perhaps it is because 91% of US-based data center professionals checked “Yes” in a recent survey for whether their company had experienced an unplanned data outage in … Continue reading
BEACON Researchers at Work: Constructing models for gene regulatory networks
This week’s BEACON Researchers at Work blog post is by North Carolina A&T graduate student Mina Moradi Kordmahalleh. The idea of bioinformatics and how an electrical engineer can work on this topic is quite new and interesting to me. In … Continue reading
