Excited to share that I’m starting a research group at MPI for Biology Tübingen — and we’re recruiting PhD students! We are offering two fully funded PhD positions on sex determination and development in Hymenoptera 🐜🐝. Please share with prospective students who might be interested.

Application details see: www.phd.tuebingen.mpg.de/3849/Apply-t...

Does population size shape protein coevolution? I explored this in my talk today at the MPI for Evolutionary Biology. Our work in mammals suggests the answer is yes - genetic drift is a major determinant of compensatory mutations. #evolution #genomics #proteinevolution @mpi-evolbio.bsky.social

Thanks to Sofia and May Sheday for the courageous and inspiring talks! The scientific world cannot remain silent @eseb2025.bsky.social #ESEB2025 #inclusivity 🏳️‍🌈 #transrights 🏳️‍⚧️ #freepalestine 🇵🇸

Good morning #ESEB2025, check out my poster P03.008 and discuss about how fishy is fish DNA, demography analysis, massive inversions, ultra-long ONT sequencing for de novo assemblies, structural variation genotyping…. and everything!

Please come and see Jinyang’s purr-fectly interesting talk at the #ESEB2025 the coming Thursday 3:45 PM (Meeting Room 116) on Polarizing SNPs without outgroup. (I won’t be there, busy.) -Sent from Naja’s pawphone

New study from the Lab! Jinyang Liang assesses the possibility of inferring ancestral alleles (aka allele polarization) without outgroup sequence, using the ancestral recombination graph (ARG) alone. Here are some of our findings. (1/5)
