In a minimalistic, generic model of competitive communities in which evolution is constrained by life-history trade-offs, stable biodiversity emerges with species adapted to different functional niches.

The evolution of clonal multicellular life cycles, whose growth is constrained by competition, may lead to coexistence or multistability between several life cycles while evolutionarily stable strategies can be inferred from the analysis of a model with unconstrained growth.

Rapidly diversifying biotic interactions decouple the dynamics of nearly identical strains.

A variant of SELEX introduced here to induce abiotic evolution in a molecular system enables to observe and study speciation, the nature of fitness, and the interplay between use of resources and interactions between individuals.

Diverse histories of viral exposure, for example in individuals of different age, makes viral evolution less predictable with features of adaptive and neutral evolution.

An eco-evolutionary model shows that heterozygote advantage can maintain over 100 major histocompatibility complex alleles, providing a potent explanation for extraordinary immune gene diversity and challenges previous models that predicted limited allele coexistence.

The introduction of infectious pathogens to a simulated animal population leads to rapid evolutionary transitions in how individuals move in a social context, with distinct movement morphs evolved that make trade-offs between sociality and infection risk.

Integration of evolutionary dynamics framed through a mathematical model improved outcomes in abiraterone monotherapy for the treatment of metastatic castrate-resistant prostate cancer.

Quorum sensing enables heterogeneous production of autoinducers in microbial populations, suggesting an alternative mechanism to stochastic gene expression in bistable gene-regulatory circuits to control phenotypic heterogeneity.

A mathematical model for a popular biological diversity mechanism, cyclic dominance, is more likely to emerge by assembly than by evolutionary diversification, which rationalizes why few empirically studies find it.
