News and Views

The Science of Hockey.- A few times over the years I submitted this as my "teaching philosophy" when applying for jobs, but evidently, it did not tip the scale in my favour (or maybe, tipped it against me?!)

Evolutionary Medicine.- A short paper on evolutionary medicine. It started as a reply to a critique, a critique that was obviously based on a misunderstanding of the differences between ultimate and proximate hypotheses, but I took the high road (mostly) and opted to try to illuminate instead.

Thoughts from my course.- The best graph ever, and the PowerPoint version. And in contrast, a really good use of modern technology to display data.

Sexually Selected Emotions.- I have had this idea for a while; BBS proved a good venue to put it out there. You might also like the other commentaries, and try to read the target article.

Multiple signals in mate choice.-  A recent paper suggesting that, like many other morphological and behavioural adaptations, sexual signals might initially evolve to actually interfere with the process of female mate choice. The paper is featured in a UN site?! (link).
