The pandemic has caused some major chaos between friends, so how can we repair this? I, as well as other experts in the field, talked to Juli about how we can start to repair these friendships in the new year.
What's the best way to reignite friendships this year? Experts advise us to, "start small," and extend ourselves "self-compassion." washingtonpost.com/health/ti… via @washingtonpost #friendship

Interesting article on cheating in viruses. Sometimes it is easy to forget that cooperation (and consequently cheating) can be found at all scales of biology and evolution.

In many cultures, sex-biased dispersal is one the most important factor structuring patterns of kinship, relatedness and cooperation. This paper is a great example that integrates different approaches such as phylogeny and ethnographic data to study dispersal norms!
