So it turns out my #EvolutionaryMedicine class lectures today and Wednesday are on vaccination and vaccine design.
Thanks Nobel for giving me a nice new angle to introduce the topic this morning.

An undergrad in my #EvolutionaryMedicine class contacted me after this weeks' disease phylodynamics class, asking about what careers exist at the intersection of phylogenetics and epidemiology & what entry level jobs exist for undergrads. I told her the little I know... any suggestions?

Myopia is a classic example of a disorder caused by mismatch with modern environments. The genes that make it more likely are not defects, they are genetic quirks that cause harm only in modern environments.
