Does population size shape protein coevolution?
I explored this in my talk today at the MPI for Evolutionary Biology.
Our work in mammals suggests the answer is yes - genetic drift is a major determinant of compensatory mutations.

Very happy for the chance to share a snapshot of my Master’s project at the MPI for Evolutionary Biology, in Julien Dutheil’s group. I’ve been tracing how the effective population size drives intra-protein compensatory mutations - tiny edits that help life stay in balance. @mpi-evolbio.bsky.social
