No lockouts. No handovers. No finding out who owns your ticket this month. One statistical geneticist throughout the project, your data the only thing on the bench.
New paper in Systematic Biology! We show how micro-synteny can help resolve a tricky fish #phylogenetic problem where traditional sequence-based analyses fall short. Genomes archive evolutionary history in more than just their basepairs.

🐝 More than 1 million insect species have been described. Millions more may still be out there.
Now imagine trying to sequence them. 🧬
From tiny amounts of DNA to wildly different genomes, insects present some of biodiversity genomics’ biggest challenges.
Do younger people and older people have the same views on embryo research and other issues?
You can find the answer to this question and many more in the new PET-ESHRE report.

📣What an incredible first day! Participants split into two tracks and dove straight into the definition of strategies to support the application of genomic approaches to the conservation of Lepidoptera 🦋
That's a wrap for our Biotic Control of Bacteria conference in Nottingham. Thank you to the Microbial Genomics (MGen) Editorial Board and everyone who joined us today. Explore our MGen journal, submit your work and join the community: https://microb.io/MGenJournal 🦠
Meet Arif Rather, PhD 👋
Arif is a postdoctoral fellow in the Dongwon Lee Lab and one of the researchers we’re lucky to have on our team! His work focuses on machine learning, computational genomics, and better understanding the biology behind disease.
I am looking forward to attending the plenary in Singapore at the end of the month. @precisionlife.bsky.social has benefited from being able to access genomic data collections. This is strategically important work that enables the transformation of future of healthcare. #genomics
ICYMARE wouldn't be possible without our sponsors so we would like to thank BMKGENE for supporting us this year! BMKGENE is an international company with more than 17 years of experience delivering high-quality multi-omics, sequencing, and bioinformatics services.

24 P. aeruginosa ST111 genomes. 7 countries. 2004–2023.
OprD loss (63%) and blaVIM-2 (29%) don't co-occur. This lineage picks one carbapenem resistance strategy, not both.

It gives me so much joy to see African scientists doing amazing things and making an impact. It was a real privilege to document Delia Doreen Djuicy’s inspiring journey and share her story in Nature Africa. 📷
