so proud of my former phd supervisor and former colleague (coincidentally now current colleagues again kinda!) who together with their colleagues published these cool results in JAMA oncology! 👏 @scilifelab.se doi.org/10.1001/jamaoncol.2025.4480

🦴🧬🦴🧬🦴 Abstract submission is now open for the 1st International Conference on Palaeogenomics! June 23–26 2026, in Stockholm. Join researchers from across the field for 4 days and >100 talks (+ poster sessions)! Submit abstracts here 👉 icp2026.palaeogenomics.org/abstracts/ Deadline: Nov 30th

not with me on it, but if you are curious about workflows for non model organisms that can help in quantifying high impact variants and hopefully genetic load, find the poster P03.060 today - the one with the boaring pig in the bottom 🫡 #ESEB2025 (sorry for the shitty contrast in header :( )

The @cpgsthlm.bsky.social gang at #eseb2025 in Barcelona 🇪🇸 Big museomics day with bears, bison & bumblebees 🐻🐮🐝🧬

#ESEB2025 museomics: lastly, please help @alexgilardet.bsky.social help George ask Love to invest in automatic robots to help in the lab 💪 or follow the new methods and validations developed by Alex that he is explaining today in his talk! (sorry for the rainbow effect) @cpgsthlm.bsky.social

#ESEB2025 museumics: followed up by our own bumblebee guy Michael Mitschke, talking about insect decline in cuties like bombus pascorum ik Sweden 🐝 @cpgsthlm.bsky.social

#ESEB2025 great talks in the museomics session, including @amandalindahl.bsky.social giving a great talk on her first (!!) conference 👏 🐻

interested in deleteuorius mutations and genetic load quantification in non model organisms? visit me on Thursday 💪 🧬 🐗 poster P03.060 #ESEB2025

first day of @eseb2025.bsky.social in Barcelona is off to a great start ! first with a deep time mammoth talk with @knmoreland.bsky.social , then a little chat with @ergabiodiv.bsky.social , followed by some ecology and then some duplications on the schedule.

I am starting a computational lab at LIOS, Riga, Latvia, and going to recruit a few people. Please DM if you are interested in a postdoc or PhD position in my Metabolic Research Group within the TARGETWISE project. I can highly recommend Riga, it is a beautiful city with very good living conditions.

that feeling when your prediction model accuracy including 10 fold cross validation turns out surprisingly well but you dont trust it and are afraid it is overfitted...

Postdoctoral Position in Wildlife Palaeogenomics! Come join us in beautiful Stockholm! su.varbi.com/en/what:job/...

That feeling when you are in a focus group meeting discussing eDNA to measure and monitor biodiversity and pros and cons, and Amanda's review exploring exactly that pops up in your feed 💪🎉 congrats @amandalindahl.bsky.social for your first publication! #biodiversity #PhD

Preprint alert: FlyCADD! 🧬 Excited to share FlyCADD: impact prediction tool scoring the functional impact of any single nucleotide variant across the entire Drosophila melanogaster genome, to distinguish causal from neutral SNPs www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

pre-print alert! my Dutch colleague @juliabeets.bsky.social just put her first PhD chapter out as preprint ! she has reworked the Kircher et al 2014 CADD for drosophila 💪 bit.ly/FlyCADD

Congrats to Samantha López Clinton for the successful half-time PhD seminar 🎉

Congrats to our students @alexgilardet.bsky.social and Chenyu Jin for their successful Licentiate defense and half-time PhD seminar! 🎉

happy birthday @cpgsthlm.bsky.social 🥳🎉🥳

I attended last year, and highly recommend it - even as a postdoc having a long(er) background in popgen! After not having been active in popgen during my PhD, this course was the perfect mix of freshening up old knowledge and getting the latest state-of-the-art solutions and updates.

happy to have just shared my latest results at the @scilifelab.se #evolution conference in Linköping 💪💪

yay my PhD little brother's latest article is out 🥳 @schmytzi great work from @AJStatGenet and colleagues #phdlife #AcademicChatter x.com/_adameur/statu…

how to channel you inner confidence

please buy more microwaves for the lunch room 🥹🥹 🥪 instagram.com/reel/CyGvgLuo5…

throwback to when I hail Mary:ed a student project almost forgetting changing all tambourines and macarenas back to cottontop tamarins and macaques... #biology #AcademicTwitter x.com/PHDcomics/stat…

it's that time of the year again ! Ewan McGregor is ready to lose his horn in a game of pool, my hair is purple and I'm on my way to the Swedish brass band championships! yas 🎺 🥳 #brassband #brassedoff

also, first day over and my MSc pop gen knowledge is slowly coming back together with my favorite quote regarding allele frequencies and alike "if nothing happens, nothing happens" #popgen #genetics #AcademicTwitter

back at biomedical center at @uppsalauni , not to visit my PhD dept @IgpUu but to catch up in the latest population genomics practices. excited for this course with @scilifelab #DDLS #popgen

when you're performing Jenkins the armed man but there is no organ so you have to be organ on cornet but you are a human who actually needs to breathe but the part is in 45 bpm #brassband

from @CpgSthlm science retreat with research presentations and dark project to band practice with Swedens only female-only #brassband proud to be project principal ! 🎺 🥳

my feeling today when I built and tested a self-written Docker image, ran a summary report script and wrote the first draft of a manuscript, all simultaneously on three separate monitors today. prolly won't be as productive in a looong time again..lol #postdoc #AcademicTwitter

Also, according to Google scholar my first ever published article just hit 50 citations 😭🥺 it is a strange feeling, and it makes me feel better when I feel academically useless. #phdlife #postdoc @PhDVoice #AcademicTwitter

spent my last vacation days walking a total of 167km during the @4daagsenijmegen in and around Nijmegen with a superb group through @Forsvarsmakten, Sweden. what an experience ! I'm so glad I did it even if my feet look like a complete disaster.. 🦶🦶 🚶🏃

waiting on my first of 4 trains home from Stockholm to Arnhem after two weeks of vacation, catchup, meeting international colleagues and attending a phenomenal #SMBEsmallpops . in a peculiar way, I'm refreshed, and I even look forward to debugging my code 💪

great mammoth talk by @CpgSthlm 's own Dr. @MariDehasque at the #SMBE satellite meeting for genetics in small populations. Great talks both plenary and during breaks so far! 🧬 🦣

part two of today: Mathias' article with @AJStatGenet , @scilifelab , @Cancerfonden published in @Cancer_Cell . "Adiposity and sex-specific cancer risk" #AcademicChatter #AcademicTwitter @PhDVoice @PostdocVoice cell.com/cancer-cell/fu…

“Our findings suggest that the use of OCs [oral contraceptives], particularly during the first 2 years, increases the risk of depression. Additionally, OC use during adolescence might increase the risk of depression later in life.” #phdlife @PhDVoice @AcademicChatter

So happy to share todays first (stay tuned!) published article from @AJStatGenet, my former PhD lab. This time by @Lofarovale. "Polygenic risk scores and risk stratification in deep vein thrombosis” #AcademicChatter #AcademicTwitter #phdlife bit.ly/dvtpolygen

happy to be briefly back in Sweden at @IgpUu attending Jonas' defense covering somatic loss of Y. PhD student in @LarsForsberg s group and discussing his work with faculty opponent @andganna So happy for him 🤗🧬💪 Really nice work!

as a new person in the Dutch community and going back to evolutionary biology for the first time in 5 years, the @NLSEB_evolution meeting together with the PhD / PostDoc day, was the perfect introduction to all the science and faces I'll be meeting the following years 🤗🌷🙌 x.com/NLSEB_evolutio…

i vant believe I defended my thesis a year ago already @AJStatGenet @IgpUu and that it was more than half a year ago I became a postdoc?? @CpgSthlm #wur_abg almost feels like yesterday.. #AcademicTwitter #AcademicChatter #phdchat #PhDone x.com/JuliaHoglundBi…

if you are part of the Dutch society of evolutionary biology, @NLSEB_evolution, come visit my talk at #NLSEB2023 16th of may! see you at session II: Modeling & Evolution ! 🐖 🧬 🦣 @WURanimal #wur_abg
