The Ontology for Avida project is developing an integrated vocabulary for the description of the most widely used computational approach for performing experimental evolution on digital organisms.…
Digital coevolution between hosts and parasites resembles the coevolutionary dynamics among bacteria and phages. By following this tutorial you will be able to set up and run coevolutionary experiments in Avida (i.e., the most widely-used software platform for studying evolution in action).…
Digital evolution is a form of evolutionary computation in which self-replicating computer programs—digital organisms—evolve within a user-defined computational environment. Avida is the most widely used software platform for research in digital evolution.…
Our computational biology lab focuses on harnessing evolution by engineering species interactions to help fight human diseases.…
