We (with @yanwong.bsky.social) are advertising a 3 year postdoc position for a project on ARG inference and methods! Based at Oxford stats. Closing date noon 7 April, full details at my.corehr.com/pls/uoxrecru...

In a new GBE Review, @david-peede.bsky.social et al. overview the SMC model and extensions, discuss examples of discoveries made with the help of SMC-based inference, and comment on the assumptions, benefits, and drawbacks of various methods. 🔗 doi.org/10.1093/gbe/... #genome #evolution #compbio

📢 Come and work with us! We have two postdoctoral Florence Nightingale Bicentenary Fellowships available in the Department of Statistics, starting in September 2026. Applications close at 12 noon on Monday 12 January 2026. ➡️ Find out more at: tinyurl.com/yc5jxdrm

Excited to share a preprint of my PhD project looking at interactions between SNPs and polygenic scores in the UK Biobank! A thread... 🧵 www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1...

The Johri Lab has an open postdoc position. Please send me an email, if interested. Start date is flexible. Please do share! Thank you in advance.

We're excited to be recruiting an NIH funded postdoc to work in the Coop lab at UC Davis. We're specifically interested in candidates who are want to work at the intersection of human genetics, GWAS, and population genetics modeling. Please RT

I’ll be attending #ASHG25! I’m currently hiring for (i) a Senior Research Scientist or (ii) a Postdoc position in my lab. If you’re interested, please reach out to arrange a time to meet and discuss.

Excited to preprint our latest work (w/ Drew DeHaas, Zhibai Jia, Leo Speidel) on using ARGs for demographic inference. w/ applications using data from 1000 Genomes Project. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Delighted that our paper about the distribution of genomic spans of clades/edges in genealogies (ARGs), and using this for detecting inversions and other SVs (and other phenomena that cause local disruption of recombination) is out in MBE academic.oup.com/mbe/article/... (1/n)

Our paper about how ancestral recombination graphs can be used to detect "phantom" genetic interaction signals (that arise due to the genealogy, rather than "real" epistasis) is out in Genetics! Nice thread here by @linoafferreira.bsky.social academic.oup.com/genetics/adv...

📣 We are recruiting! Please share!! Are you a bioinformatician / computational scientist who wants to apply your skills to understanding regulatory biology and improving rare disease diagnosis and treatment? 🧠 💻 🧬 🩺 We have two roles available 👇 🧵 1/4

Staff scientist position (computational): I am looking for a computational scientist to join my genomics lab at Stanford. They should have an outstanding skillset in ML/statistical methods for genomic applications, postdoc experience and a strong publication record. #sciencejobs

Excited to share our preprint "A putative ecocline in Klebsiella pneumoniae" and super-interested to get your feedback. Really want to use the hive mind to get to the bottom of this phenomenon ASAP. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

My bluesky debut! One week to the submission deadline for SMBE 2025, Beijing 20-24 July smbe2025.scimeeting.cn @anaignatieva.bsky.social and I are organising a symposium on popgen through time: using ARGs, aDNA, or otherwise to understand the evolutionary processes that shape genomes through time.

New preprint (with @linoafferreira.bsky.social) where we explore the idea of using genealogies (in the form of ancestral recombination graphs, ARGs) to tell apart real GxG interaction signals between nearby variants from false positives www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Very excited (and a bit nervous) to announce that I will be hiring two Postdocs for my new group(!) in Copenhagen to study the Neanderthal and Denisovan DNA which survives in present-day humans. Retweet will be much appreciated :) Link for application: candidate.hr-manager.net/ApplicationI...
