    Martin Ackermann
    Division of Biological Sciences, University of California, San Diego, La Jolla, California 92093, USA
    Curr Biol 14:R73-4. 2004
    ..How can cooperation thrive in a selfish world? Recent evolution experiments show how bacteria themselves can generate conditions that make cooperation a winning strategy. At least in the short term...
  3. ncbi On the evolutionary origin of aging
    Martin Ackermann
    Institute of Integrative Biology, ETHZ, 8092 Zurich, Switzerland
    Aging Cell 6:235-44. 2007
    ..Aging might thus be a more fundamental aspect of cellular organisms than assumed so far...
  4. ncbi Experimental evolution of aging in a bacterium
    Martin Ackermann
    Institute of Integrative Biology, ETH Zurich, CH 8092 Zurich, Switzerland
    BMC Evol Biol 7:126. 2007
    ..We tested the generality of this theory by experimental evolution with Caulobacter crescentus, a bacterium whose asymmetric division allows mother and daughter to be distinguished...
  5. ncbi Evolution of niche width and adaptive diversification
    Martin Ackermann
    Division of Biological Sciences, University of California, San Diego, California 92093, USA
    Evolution 58:2599-612. 2004
    ..These results refine the conditions for adaptive diversification due to competition and formulate them in a way that might be more amenable for experimental investigations...

    Martin Ackermann
    Institute of Integrative Biology, ETH Zurich, Switzerland
    Biotechniques 44:564-7. 2008
    ..This indicates that aging is a more fundamental property of organisms than was previously assumed. Bacteria can now be used as very simple model system for investigating why and how organisms age...
