new blog post on the replay project

[Erick Matsen]

Hello everyone--

Over the past 5+ years I have had the honor of working on a project with Will DeWitt, the Victora lab, and many others, to "replay" affinity maturation evolution from a fixed starting point. Here is a new blog post about the project and the adventure we had with it:

I hope this is interesting to both evolutionary biology and immunology audiences.

Thanks,

Erick
