Interesting new rool from Franz Baumdicker and colleagues. This is the last time phylogenetic effects interfere with your co-occurrence calculations.

Check out our new method to infer gene co-occurrences and avoidances in bacterial pangenomes biorxiv.org/content/10.110… github.com/fbaumdicker/go… with Franz Baumdicker

We are looking for a PhD student in virus bioinformatics co-supervised by me and Astrid Bryon Wageningen U&R wur.nl/en/vacancy/phd…

🧬 Excited to share our latest preprint: we introduce MANIAC, a new tool to rapidly estimate genetic relationship between viral genomes! 🧪🔬 biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Does anyone have any tips for teaching large group practicals using the web versions of BLAST, CLUSTAL, HHPred? Last week with 200+ students everything was failing - CLUSTAL showing no output, BLAST taking 45+ mins, HHpred locked for too many queries.

SAVE THE DATE: 4-6 Nov 2024 An affordable EMBO lecture course for PhDs and Postdocs wishing to learn from and network with leading experts in Evolutionary and Comparative Genomics. Where? In stunning Nafplion! Please RT!

Some news on my side 🎉 I will join Wageningen U&R as an assistant professor in September. My research remains at the intersection of bioinformatics and cheminformatics and I will focus on applications contributing to pharmacology and sustainability in (bio)chemical synthesis and ag.

Two weeks left to apply for a PhD position in insect virome and microbiome analyses with ⁦Anne Kupczok⁩ and me ⁦Wageningen U&R⁩ wur.nl/en/vacancy/phd…

We’re hiring! PhD on rhizosphere phages and response to future atmosphere with metagenomics and isotopes… this project has it all 😉including awesome collaborators Anne Kupczok Linglingshi. And a great uni in beautiful Tü! #phdjobs #soil #phage uni-tuebingen.de/en/266340

Registration for our EMBO course in gorgeous Nafplion, Greece is open! With an excellent lineup of speakers and really affordable fees, this is a great deal for PhDs and postdocs. Please help spread the word! #EMBOEvoCompGenomics

Job offer📢 I am recruiting a Master's-level bioscientist (computational/experimental) to work on the evolution of antimicrobial peptides in animals. Also looking for newly-minted PhDs and early career postdocs to apply for various postdoctoral fellowships. Please share!

New paper alert wt Anne Kupczok : we found thousands of species-specific genes in the human gut microbiome (some with evid. of selection) and they mostly seem to be "grown locally" in bacteria, rather than transferred from phages. genome.cshlp.org/content/early/…

PhD position at Wageningen University supervised by me and @hiljedoekes. You will combine bioinformatics and modelling to untangle the drivers of phage diversity across space and time wur.nl/en/vacancy/phd… #PhDposition #phage #bioinformatics #modelling
