Getting ready to go live for a special @CooperationSci livestream looking at the breakdown of cellular cooperation that can happen when cells mutate & implications are for cancer and aging Revisiting Peto’s Paradox: Q&A with Dr. Alex Cagan youtube.com/live/uirdRc0HYoU… via @YouTube

How do organisms evolve to suppress cellular cheating and enforce multicellular cooperation? We'll be discussing Peto's Pardox and more with @ATJCagan, author of the Nature paper “Somatic mutation rates scale with lifespan across mammals” Oct 5 2:30pm MST! youtube.com/watch?v=uirdRc0H…

Wow. C-sections and antibiotic exposure are associated with attention deficit and other learning disorders says Gloria Dominguez-Bello. Restoring cooperative microbes can help. @CHES_Rutgers @CooperationSci

You have to keep your friends at the right distance says Gloria Dominguez-Bello. Beneficial microbes are rarely within us. They live on our epithelial surfaces like our skin and our gut lining. @CHES_Rutgers @CooperationSci

A bunch of things influence fitness interdependence (and therefore cooperation), like genetic relatedness, positive assortment, environmental uncertainty. @lee_cronk @CHES_Rutgers @CooperationSci

Last, add fitness interdependence in the mix. @lee_cronk builds a universal theory of cooperation @CHES_Rutgers @CooperationSci
The Cooperation Science Network retweeted
Next step in building a universal theory of cooperation: game theory! @lee_cronk @CHES_Rutgers @CooperationSci

If you’re trying to build a universal theory of cooperation: Start with agents that have goals says @lee_cronk @CHES_Rutgers @CooperationSci

Not ambitious or anything. @lee_cronk teeing up a Universal Theory of Cooperation at Lembersky conference. @CHES_Rutgers @CooperationSci

Vampire bats actually compete with each other to share with their hungry ‘friends.’ Jerry Wilkinson flipping the script on the standard cheating story. @CHES_Rutgers @CooperationSci

Love this. Evolutionary origins of food sharing coming from parental investment says Jerry Wilkinson. @lee_cronk and I have suggested similar things underlying the evolution need-based transfers @CHES_Rutgers @CooperationSci

Nice! We found something similar, not specific to bats but a fundamental mathematical result. royalsocietypublishing.org/d…

OG cooperation science from Jerry Wilkinson. Vampire bats share blood with hungry bats. Benefits to the recipient much larger than the costs to donor. @CHES_Rutgers @CooperationSci
