EASTBIO The evolutionary fate of new mutations

  Research Group: Statistical Medicine and Molecular Biology
Every evolutionary change begins with a new mutation. But what happens to a new mutation once it appears? Does it help an organism survive and reproduce, or does it disappear without leaving a trace? How these new mutations affect evolution remains an open question in evolutionary biology. Read more
