The pace of evolution across fitness valleys [PDF]
, 2009 How fast does a population evolve from one fitness peak to another? We study the dynamics of evolving, asexually reproducing populations in which a certain number of mutations jointly confer a fitness advantage.

No association between passive material property and cross-sectional area in human hamstring
Journal of Physical Fitness and Sports Medicine, 2018 The passive material properties of a muscle, as evaluated by shear or Young’s modulus, can vary depending on the muscle cross-sectional area (CSA), since intramuscular compositions such as adipose tissue and connective tissue change with muscle ...

The relative fitness of drug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis: a modelling study of household transmission in Peru. [PDF]
, 2017 The relative fitness of drug-resistant versus susceptible bacteria in an environment dictates resistance prevalence. Estimates for the relative fitness of resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) strains are highly heterogeneous and mostly derived from

The epigenetic clock is correlated with physical and cognitive fitness in the Lothian Birth Cohort 1936 [PDF]
, 2015 Background: The DNA methylation-based 'epigenetic clock' correlates strongly with chronological age, but it is currently unclear what drives individual differences. We examine cross-sectional and longitudinal associations between the epigenetic clock and

Metastable Evolutionary Dynamics: Crossing Fitness Barriers or Escaping via Neutral Paths?
, 1999 We analytically study the dynamics of evolving populations that exhibit metastability on the level of phenotype or fitness. In constant selective environments, such metastable behavior is caused by two qualitatively different mechanisms. One the one hand,
