I want to inaugurate my science Mastodon with this recent preprint with Lindi Wahl and Ryan Gutenkunst. We show that mutation rate modifiers are more likely to fix when they are also coupled with mutation bias modifiers that reverse the mutation bias of the original wild type modifier. In the rare case where all mutation types have the same mutation rate then this magnifying effect does not occur. https://doi.org/10.1101/2022.09.27.509708

Dear followers. I'm moving to Mastodon, I won't interact via Twitter anymore. But happy to keep tooting at @CastellanoED. I've enjoyed tremendously learning from you, feeling you and loling with you. See you at the end of the tunnel.
