Moderate Environmental Variation Promotes the Evolution of Robust Solutions

CoRR, 2017
Previous evolutionary studies demonstrated how evaluating evolving agents in variable environmental conditions enable them to develop solutions that are robust to environmental variation. We demonstrate how the robustness of the agents can be further improved by exposing them also to environmental variations throughout generations.

The role of genetic variation in DGKK on moderate and severe hypospadias

Birth Defects Research, 2019
AbstractBackgroundRecent genome‐wide association studies of hypospadias have implicated the role of genetic variants in or near the diacylglycerol kinase kappa (DGKK) gene. However, these variants are largely identified among samples of mild and moderate hypospadias cases.

Large Copy-Number Variations Are Enriched in Cases With Moderate to Extreme Obesity [PDF]

Diabetes, 2010
OBJECTIVE Obesity is an increasingly common disorder that predisposes to several medical conditions, including type 2 diabetes. We investigated whether large and rare copy-number variations (CNVs) differentiate moderate to extreme obesity from never-overweight control subjects.
