Joshua Plotkin uses mathematics and computation to study questions in evolutionary biology and ecology, primarily concerning how populations adapt. His interests include the evolution of robustness and adaptability, the evolutionary ecology of viral populations, the nature of genetic drift, the dynamics of protein translation, and the evolution of social norms. His research has used a Joshua Plotkin. Professor of Biology, Computer and Information Science, and Mathematics. Office Location: 219 Carolyn Lynch Laboratories. The Graduate Group in Applied Mathematics and Computational Science of the University of Pennsylvania offers a full graduate program in mathematics, conferring the degrees of Master of Arts (M.A.), and Joshua B. Plotkin, Professor of Biology, is the Walter H. and Leonore C. Annenberg Professor in the Natural Sciences. He also holds secondary appointments in the School of Arts and Sciences Department of Mathematics and the School of Engineering and Applied Science Department of Computing and Information Science.
