I'm looking to hire a postdoc to work on the RepAdapt + MacroMar projects, analysing genomic data from >130 species of plants, animals, and fungi (VCFs are processed, ready to go). Lots of potential for creativity and collaboration!

ARGformer is out in Bioinformatics!
Just as PCA reduces dimensionality from genotypes, ARGformer can do this now for ARGs...yielding a representation that comes directly from inferred genealogical topologies & at a haplotype level across each individual genome.
Recombination helps evolution—but it can also cause mutations. New theory shows that even small increases in mutation near crossovers can oppose the evolution of higher recombination rates. By @sarperotto.bsky.social and Bret Payseur academic.oup.com/evlett/advan...
A first attempt at deep learning, ABC, and moments to estimate parameters about the pop dynamics of transposons. I will soon post a post-doc offer to work on TEs in palms, and I hope these resources may be helpful. Feel free to comment. I need feedback.
