If you like genomics, speciation, and primates, this PhD position is for you! Unraveling the genomic architecture of speciation and gene flow in guenons, a diverse group of African monkeys. Funding through DTP. Do reach out with questions! #genomics #genome_assembly evol.mcmaster.ca/brian/evoldi...

This version dependency going on between conda and snakemake is madness. Syntax issue as well between versions; crazy python stuffs. This volatility cannot be the future of Bioinformatics. What does people use to make pipeline nowadays? How have people in maths/physics/chemistry been doing it?

@sderkarabetian.bsky.social et al. developed a metazoan ultraconserved element (UCE) probe set, providing a resource for multiple research groups working on vastly different animal lineages. 🔗 doi.org/10.1093/gbe/evaf193 #genome #evolution #compbio #phylogenetics

I have a hard time reconciling 322 EUR as the price of LMIC countries but sure Copenhagen *sob* It was one month salary still for even Indonesia's senior researchers. Such is the fate of middle-class economy.

"In the Nicomachean Ethics, Aristotle (ca. 350 BC) suggested that politics was the most sovereign and most comprehensive master science, because politics uses the rest of the sciences, and because politics legislates what people are to do and what they are not to do." doi.org/10.1093/jmam...

I have always been a fan of Patrícia's piece in the molecularecologist and I have no idea I will be writing together with her in 4 years after the start of the fangirling. I love my life.

All those questions about inbreeding in conservation that you were afraid to ask. A bunch of early career scientists is here to explain something that even Wright and Fisher couldn't agree on, the (not so) simple question of what is inbreeding. link.springer.com/article/10.1...

Myself and Alastair Wilson wrote an updated version of our 2016 primer to quantitative genetics in the wild: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti.... Happy to share a copy if interested. It is also on research gate

Our Q&A article on inbreeding for conservation is out in BMC Biology! We discuss some important key concepts related to inbreeding in the light of new genomic tools and what it means for conservation when we want to improve species survival. #consgen bmcbiol.biomedcentral.com/articles/10....

🔁Please share - we remind the SMBE community that the Call for Symposia for #SMBE2026 in Copenhagen is open. We invite you to submit a symposium proposal to help shape the scientific content of our annual meeting. 🗓️Deadline: October 15th More info: smbe2026.org/symposia @official-smbe.bsky.social

Hello, Bluesky! We're the IUCN SSC Parasite Specialist Group, a part of the Species Survival Commission! We're just starting to understand the important roles parasites play in their ecosystems, and our goal is to determine the threats wildlife parasites face and to conserve rare and unique species!

Exciting news! The next #PopGroup meeting will take place in Lille 🍟, France, 7–9 January 2026 – just 1 hour by train from London, Brussels, and Paris. This year, PopGroup will also host ALPHY, the annual meeting of Evolutionary Genomics. More info: populationgeneticsgroup.org.uk See you there !

Our new paper on Indonesian cattle #genomics is out on @natcomms.nature.com 🎉 Did you know Indonesian #cattle 🐂 were a mix of two species? 🧵 Great work by Xi, @sagitaninta.bsky.social, Casia, Rasmus & co-authors Read 👉 www.nature.com/articles/s41... #popgen #evolution #agriculture

I am blessed by great mentors in science so far. Not having to get awkward to get recommendation letters is apparently not the average experience for early career researchers 🥲

I will be recruiting two PhDs for my ERC Project HERDPATH - let's discover out how livestock and pathogens evolved together using #aDNA. Projects will be animal or pathogen focused but will be in dialogue. Details at my quaint website below. Deadline 3rd October. kevingdaly.github.io

Is it just me or "genetic purity" sounds fascist?

Do you want to build a symposium 👉🏼👈🏻 #SMBE2026 smbe2026.org/symposia/

Thanks Roberto for the kind commentaries 🥰 I co-lead this study with the bluesky-less Rosie Drinkwater who tirelessly tracked the metadata & the details of the spatial modelling and cannot join the interview because she was on the field. Always a privilege to work with brilliant people 😁

What is happening in Indonesia deserves more attention www.reuters.com/world/asia-p...

Very nice explainer from twitter user normelpeople on what's happening in Indonesia this week and how people are feeling

Just sharing for what happen in my country right now 🇮🇩 #Indonesia #StopPoliceBrutality

What a busy August it’s been for our group! 🌍✈️ From our Summer Course in Copenhagen to #EPIC25 in Aarhus and #ESEB25 in Barcelona. So great to see so many of our researchers sharing their work through talks and posters! An inspiring month full of science, learning, and collaboration! 🙌✨

Surprised SMBE being allowed in such an expensive city LOL but here we are: save the date for #SMBE2026 in Copenhagen on 28 June - 2 July 2026! If you need visa, apply 2 months in advance the latest; as long as I'm still here I can help nudge the committee if you need anything :D smbe2026.org

Please share broadly: I am looking for a postdoctoral fellow to work on a collaborative project on the temporal population genomics of invasive Capeweed (using contemporary and herbarium genomics), with ‪‪@shaky-dingo.bsky.social‬ and colleagues

Shameless promotion from #isba11 - I'll be hiring PhDs to start early 2026 (plus postdocs starting later), using #adna to study livestock and pathogen coevolution, particularly looking at inbreeding and immune gene evolution! Contact me at kevin[at]palaeome.org, full ad to come. Please share!

Something we need to grasp is that Establishment power meant imperialism. Imperialism is a system of thought that sees upper class white men as the pinnacle of humanity, with a sacred duty to control the lives of others. What we now call the far right is an extension and revival of imperialism.

Say all the bad things about X/Twitter all you want, it still has the realest conversations about the Israel-Palestine conflict than this place.

It's not asylum seekers who jack up rents, undermine the NHS, hold down wages and keep people insecure. It's capital. The role of the far right is to shift the blame for decades of economic attacks by the rich and powerful onto powerless people who have only just arrived here.

Ooh, look. When we covered the climate impacts of machine learning (“AI”) on Rare Earth in June we found it really frustrating that none of the tech companies would tell anyone the water and energy costs. Now Google has made at least some of it public. More of this! (and preferably raw data too).

I cannot believe there are this many Indonesians in #ESEB2025 After so long of being almost the only Indonesian in these kinds of conferences, I am just so happy to have found *literally* my people. I hope many more to come from Indonesia studying evolutionary biology around the EU 🥹

Room size for forecasting evolution symposium was not properly forecasted 🥁

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 🇵🇸

a bit unhappy that the talks about being trans & Palestinian in academia were concurrent with other science talks #ESEB2025. How will these inspiring people’s stories percolate / get everyone to reflect if the schedule selects for attendance only by those who are already sympathetic?

#ESEB2027 will be a hub meetings! Not sure if I will can afford still be around EU at that time, but those who can please do join, it has been a fun experience.

Mike Ritchie reminded to publish in your society journals to keep things rolling. Overpriced journals from big publishers did not circle back their money to society! Surprised the EU still need to be reminded, I thought many funding bodies acknowledged review-community platforms. #ESEB2025

Attending #ESEB2025 has been an amazing experience! If you are interested in more ancient DNA and museomics, please consider joining us in Stockholm for the first International Conference on Palaeogenomics (June 23-26 2026)! Follow @palaeogenomics.bsky.social 👉icp2026.palaeogenomics.org

The amount of food waste in #ESEB2025 is APPALLING. I seen a ONE-TIME-BITTEN sandwiches and HALF-EATEN desserts being LEFT. How could you? Apparently people around here weren't raised to respect food?

I bonded with new people with cool works upon the forecasting evolution symposium queue I am starting to think this queue is actually a feature not a bug 👀 #ESEB2025

Johanna Mappes on figuring out what behind the aposematic colors of tiger moth. Apparently predator community affects how the morphs alter in frequency. I like how researchers increasingly acknowledge their shortcomings on their scientific process; it encourages early career researchers! #ESEB2025
