Despite frequent inbreeding, banded #mongooses show #MHC diversity on par with species of least conservation concern.

NewπŸ“„Schubert et al. 2025 #BMCEcolEvol provide first full MHC characterization in a wild social #carnivore @bmc.springernature.com

Hi, new here and just wanted to introduce myself. I'm an evolutionary biologist, interested in MHC, disease ecology, sexual selection, and immune gene evolution🧬. I work on wildlife, mostly small mammals πŸ€. I'm excited to be part of the science community here!
