Our new paper identifies ecological parameters that influence evolution of immune memory in wild insect populations

Finally, we reveal the ecological parameters that may drive evolution of immune priming (somewhat similar to what we see in human vaccination) in wild populations of flour beetles. Arun Prakash did an enormous study using 10 different wild-collected populations! hip hip hooray..
