NEW Publication: The promise and pitfalls of synteny in phylogenomics in PLOS Biology!!😄
Synteny—conserved genetic collinearity—is a (re)emerging marker for reconstructing the tree of life. Here, we outline the promise and potential pitfalls of synteny for phylogenetic inference

Do you believe in hopeful monsters? Our recent study within our European Research Council (ERC) project SEA2LAND takes a deep dive into the origins of clitellate annelids by a punctual genomic catastrophe via chromosome shattering and rebirth biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

New paper in Nature Communications. This is the last from an awesome collaboration with Ian Ehrenreich's lab at USC when I was at Stanford. link.springer.com/article/10.103…

We're hiring new faculty at EMBL-EBI - under the great Julio Saez-Rodriguez - we focus on vision and potential and you certainly don't have to be the finished article as a Postdoc (we even hire from last year of PhD) - so - into AI, methods with biological data - apply!

We’re hiring a new student helper. This is a crucial position that supports lab infrastructure, including glassware, autoclaving, lab maintenance tasks, etc. Looking for someone reliable and detail-oriented! UW students please apply! (Login required) app.joinhandshake.com/emp/jobs/89827…

Proud of Rebecca Tarnopol’s Alumna Lecture for the tri-department Genetic Dissection of Cells and Organisms T32 Training Grant’s retreat UC Botanical Garden. We had a wonderful day of trainee talks/posters and a *spectacular* Keynote Lecture on genetics of adaptation by Stanford Prof. Gavin Sherlock.

thrilled to share Rachel Ungar's and my paper on our genetics + ethics course! still shocked, awed, and incredibly grateful that our little idea grew into a full-fledged course and accompanying paper cell.com/cell-genomics/…

Excited to announce our new review: Beyond the Human Genome Project: The Age of Complete Human Genome Sequences and Pangenome References. w/ Benedict Paten Rajiv McCoy Karen Miga Eimear Kenny et al. annualreviews.org/content/journa…

Our review paper on 'Genome assembly in the telomere-to-telomere era' published online in Nature Reviews Genetics. It amazes me how much assembly has progressed in the past four years – often ~100X improvement in contiguity and base accuracy and with haplotypes and hard regions resolved!

Looking for a comprehensive overview of different mutagenesis techniques for evolutionary engineering of microbes, including CRISPR-Cas, oligonucleotides, recombinases, and polymerases? Anna and Julian's new paper in Trends in Microbiology is here for ya: cell.com/trends/microbi…
