About

    Evolutionary dynamics is a branch of biology that studies how populations of organisms change over time through the process of evolution. This field explores how genetic variation, natural selection, genetic drift, gene flow, and mutation influence the genetic makeup of populations, leading to changes in traits, adaptations, and the formation of new species. Researchers in evolutionary dynamics use mathematical models, experimental studies, and computational simulations to better understand the mechanisms driving evolutionary change. This field has important implications for understanding the diversity of life on Earth, the origins of complex traits, and the emergence of diseases and antibiotic resistance.
