About Michael White

Welcome to Adaptive Complexity, where I write about genomics, systems biology, evolution, and the connection between science and literature, government, and society.

I'm a biochemist

From "An epistatic ratchet constrains the direction of glucocorticoid receptor evolution", Jamie T. Bridgham, Eric A. Ortlund&Joseph W. Thornton.

Barak decided to send it to the whole lab. I had to acknowledge you, but couldn't resist a dig.
