Hello - how nice to be off twitter! I'm a PhD student at the University of St Andrews studying evolutionary theory (my research profile: tinyurl.com/kztwyman). Would love to connect with anyone working in evolution, theory, social behaviour etc.!

New paper: "R.A. Fisher on J.A. Cobb's The Problem of the Sex-Ratio" (OpenAccess) hdl.handle.net/10023/28453 "Fisher's principle" of the sex ratio was first given by Cobb in 1914. Here I show that Fisher was aware of Cobb's paper.
