Next week at journal club we will be discussing these two papers on evolvability.

Graves CJ, Ros VID, Stevenson B, Sniegowski PD, Brisson D (2013) Natural Selection Promotes Antigenic Evolvability. PLoS Pathog 9(11): e1003766

Pigliucci, M (2008) Is evolvability evolvable? Nature Reviews Genetics 9, 75-82

Next week we will be discussing epigenetics and phenotypic plasticity.
See you then!
