This is great! However, it doesn't really surprise me: frequency-dependent and density-dependent fitnesses are not special cases of natural selection; actually constant selection is the special case! Search "Mallet The Struggle" www.uvm.edu/~ngotelli/Bi...

This looks great! However, not surprised! Frequency- and density-dependent selection are not "special cases" of evolution by natural selection: they are the norm! It is constant fitness differences that provide the special case of natural selection. mallet.oeb.harvard.edu/publications...

I’m excited to share a new paper about HIV escape from broadly neutralizing antibody monotherapies! In it, we describe the most highly recurrent adaptation I have ever seen. A close collaboration with Lillian Cohn (FHCC) led jointly by Elena Romero and Abby Clyde. www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...
