This week Loeske will be talking about “Indirect genetic effects clarify how traits can evolve even when fitness does not” (Fisher & McAdam, Evol. Let. 2019). Come along Wednesday to chat about this paper on the role of the social environment in facilitating evolution without adaptation. A less word-y (but more GIF-y) summary of the paper has also been conveniently tweeted for your enjoyment: https://twitter.com/McAdam_lab/status/1090243028693016577
