Our paper “The Catalogue of Mechanisms in Analytical Sociology” (with @mjbuedo.bsky.social) has been published in Philosophy of the Social Sciences. We analyse, operationalise, and assess the project of the catalogue of mechanisms. #PhilSci journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/...

How do species interact when there is trait evolution? In our new article (doi.org/10.1016/j.jt...), we analyze a model of two competing species whose quantitative traits evolve under stabilizing selection. #EvoBio

Ecology and Evolution publication now out on the Foundations of Ecological and Evolutionary Change. Victor Luque and I found an equation from which the fundamental equations of ecology and evolution can be derived, formally tying the two together. Our starting point is the interaction between […]

We got published in Ecology&Evolution! We propose an equation from which we derive the fundamental equations of population ecology and evolutionary biology (the Price equation). #evobio #philbio onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...
Foundations of Ecological and Evolutionary Change
We link the fundamental equations of population ecology and evolution with an equation that sums how individual characteristics interact with individual fitness in a population. From this equation, w....

Victor Luque@victorluque.bsky.social · 2y agoIs there an equation that unifies ecological and evolutionary change? In a new preprint Brad Duthie and I show that actually there is. From this equation we derive the two fundamental equations of population ecology and evolution (the Price equation). #evolution #ecology arxiv.org/abs/2409.10766
Join us tomorrow Friday at 10 am (room BLB7) for our talk "Darwin's Dream: Unifying Ecological and Evolutionary Change" #ISHPSSB2025
We've published a Cambridge Elements in Ecological Psychology! 🥳 @segundo-ortin.bsky.social and I have tried to provide a short, but all-encompassing introduction. We hope it's useful both for getting familiar with the field & for teaching. It's free for 14 days! doi.org/10.1017/9781...
My Cambridge Element is out now and free to download until January 2!

The Price equation provides a comprehensive representation of evolutionary processes. However, there is no consensus on the explanatory power of the equation. In this article we aim to clarify its place within modern evolutionary theory: link.springer.com/article/10.1...

🎉 New: The Value of Price We explore the role of the Price equation in evolutionary biology. We argue that, like Galilean kinematics, it is a phenomenological framework that unifies diverse fields by formalizing a shared explanandum. 🖋️ Baravalle, Roffé, Luque & Ginnobili. doi.org/10.1007/s137...

What's the role of the Price equation within evolutionary theory? Is it a tautology? In our new article we argue that its role is analogous to that of Galilean kinematics in classical mechanics. #evolution #Priceequation #philsci #philbio link.springer.com/article/10.1...
