Lab holiday skating party! ⛸⛸⛸

I'm starting my lab at Mississippi State University in August 2023, and we have an open postdoc position! Come pursue interesting questions in phylogenetics, population genetics, and/or machine learning! explore.msujobs.msstate.edu/en-us/job/5054….

Happy to see this new preprint out (with @yadirapga and Richard Wang). In it we propose a new explanation for male mutation bias--faulty males. 1/ ecoevorxiv.org/repository/vie…

After years of work, I am thrilled to annouced that our paper 'Demographic history and genetic structure in pre-Hispanic Central Mexico' is finally out. 🥳🤩🙌🏽 science.org/doi/10.1126/sc… We have : 1/7

Hi #Evol2023! I'm recruiting graduate students to join my lab at Mississippi State University! Interested in population and phylogenetic methods, machine learning, or terrestrial gastropods? Let's talk!

And Wally has begun to bloom!!! Doesn't it look stunning ❤️😍🤩 Come to the Biology building Green House to visit Wally. It'll be open tonight and tomorrow. Read more about Wally here!! biology.indiana.edu/news-events/ne… IU Biology IU Bloomington

New postdoc position available! Evolution of mutation rates! 🚨🚨🚨 Please apply, but also feel free to get in touch with me--or past and present members of the lab--directly. (RTs appreciated) indiana.peopleadmin.com/postings/19856

🚨🚨New postdoc position in the lab! NIH-funded project looking at chromosome evolution and neo-sex chromosomes. Don't hesitate to reach out if interested!

Final version of paper with Yadira Peña-García and Richard Wang is now out! Free version here: sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Save the date! 🚨🚨🚨 The annual Midwest Population Genetics meeting will be held here at Indiana University, Bloomington on August 9-10. Stay tuned for more info #MWPG24

Excited to share our work today in Current Biology Thankful for a great collaboration 😊

Beyond thrilled to be organizing "Behind the science stories" workshop at #TAGC24 Genetics Society of America ! Get ready to peel back the curtains on innovations from Mariana Wolfner Lab Derek Applewhite A. Sánchez Alvarado @SMBurgessLab Needhi Bhalla 💅🏽 labs. #Drosophila #Zebrafish #Planaria #Celegans

Just in time for #SMBE2024 (sorta), a new preprint led by super-postbacc, Daniel Rickert. The only remaining hope for concatenated analyses is neighbor-joining :) arxiv.org/abs/2407.02634

Many folks know this already but wanted to make an official announcement: I am super pleased to share that I will be starting my lab at Mississippi State University Mississippi State in Fall 2025! We will be recruiting grad students and a lab tech to start as soon as August ‘25

Check out our new preprint!

I'm recruiting students / postdocs to join my new lab at the University of Rochester for Fall 2025 onwards! If you're interested in phylogenetic comparative methods, genome evolution, and/or computational biology, please get in touch! More info: mhibbins.github.io

New paper led by Yadira Peña-García! Even though opossums have kids at 0.5 years, they still have typical male-biased mutation (though not quite as high as humans).

Ancient DNA is reshaping human history. 🧬 Assoc. Prof. Emilia Huerta-Sánchez spoke with National Geographic about new discoveries revealing a more complex picture of our ancestors and the other humans they encountered. 🔗 Read more: ow.ly/5Scz50UPvv7

New paper with Sarthak R. Mishra ! Maybe it will bring you some joy given all this (waves arms around). "Estimating recombination using only the allele frequency spectrum" 1/2 biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

New paper led by Richard Wang ! "Unprecedented female female bias in the aye-aye, a highly unusual lemur from Madagascar" 1/ journals.plos.org/plosbiology/...
