Really happy to see this out in PRX Life! There you can find an eco-evolutionary framework integrating the evolution of viral infectiousness and antigenic features. While the former determines contagion events among hosts, the latter tells us how quickly viruses can escape population immunity 1/4👇

Very cool interactive story, @jstonge.bsky.social!
"[...] real social cascades aren't simply branching processes with fixed rules." A self-reinforcing mechanism is what we propose in a recent piece led by the one and only @lhd.bsky.social.

Our Physical Review Letter looks at how to get power-law distributions of cascade size without tuning or self-organization to criticality by allowing cascades to improve in quality and jump over gaps or dead-ends

It might start as a joke, belief, or rumor, easy to dismiss. But then it twists, builds momentum, and spreads like wildfire. Why do some ideas die out while others go viral?

Our team had an amazing week at @ic2s2.bsky.social in Norrköping Sweden and we will post pictures of our posters and talks soon - the big news is that we're so excited to host #IC2S2 in Burlington in 2026! youtu.be/p412S4GnPkc

There's amazing work on group effects in higher-order networks, but not a lot of connections to social ontology, collective action, and group selection.
Led by @jstonge.bsky.social with expert guidance of @rharp.bsky.social we reviewed and formalized these connections.

Not sure we'll ever understand adaptive systems enough. But what we're sure of is that one basic reason is that you can't even start to describe them properly w/o preserving local dynamical correlations.
A fun and frustrating long way to go.

New work led by the great @giulioburgio.bsky.social.
A detailed math model to track correlations within and across groups in higher-order networks.
We also get to study adaptive hypergraphs, which self-organize as sparse or dense graphs to control a contagion.

Characteristic scales and adaptation in higher-order contagions - Nature Communications
People organize in groups and contagions spread across them, meanwhile groups can evolve as people adaptively move in response to the spread. Here, authors show how keeping key dynamical correlations ...

During a pandemic such as COVID19, we hope (but fail) to accurately estimate the incidence of the disease. In this paper, we propose a new approach to machine-learn models of the real incidence from readily available information (tests and detected cases) dx.doi.org/10.1371/jour...

Some decisions are best made quickly and locally. Governance can work better as a higher-order network, not a pyramid around a central state. How should we design these networks?
We looked at this with law and complexity scholars and found "effective governance" networks.
