Abstract

Paul Joyce's work touched on a variety of topics in population genetics-from mathematical models of idealized systems to working closely with biologists on experimental evolution and landscape genetics. I will focus on his earlier mathematical/statistical work that centered on the infinite alleles model.

Keywords: GEM; Infinite alleles model; Neutral; Poisson–Dirichlet; Selection.
