JOB ALERT: maître de conférence en génomique évolutive / écologie moléculaire est ouvert au sein de l'UMR ECOBIOP (Université de Pau) organisation.univ-pau.fr/_resource/Do...

I am happy to announce the launch of a new Arabidopsis genomics resource! Check out arabidopsislyrata.org Now you can easily look at the natural genetic variation across the entire species range of A. lyrata and A. arenosa.

Up to what degree of interspecific genetic distance is it possible to form viable and fertile hybrids? A strange species of paramecium breaks the record: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

Slim 5 can now simulate genomes with multiple chromosomes like autosomes, sex chromosomes, mitochondria and chloroplast dna academic.oup.com/mbe/article/...

Do you like your learned society and what it does for you and your research community? Then publish in their journal! This paper by @nicolasgaltier.bsky.social & Co shows that it will only do good, and comes with a handy database of academy-friendly journals. 👇

Responsible publication of your research! To help you do this @nicolasgaltier.bsky.social and coauthors have put together a handy database of academia-friendly journals, DAFNEE. You can read about it in their article recently published in @jevbio.bsky.social: doi.org/10.1093/jeb/...

Musicians warm up for the popGroup gala at ‘chaud bouillon’ #popgroup59 #ppg59 #pgg59 (maps.app.goo.gl/mEp8d9dWbJ6k...)

Looking for a post doc on cutting-edge methods in genomics? Contact Hannes Becher #pgg59 #popgrouo59

#popGroup59 is starting now at Lille. Delighted to see the conference come to fruition !

New preprint: we advertise DAFNEE, a database of academia-friendly eco-evo-archaeo journals. 1/6 #AcademicPublishing #ecoevo #archaeology #EthicalPublishing #SocietyJournals #DiamondOpenAccess doi.org/10.32942/X24...

Improving two-step cancer treatment strategies based on evolutionary models, but above all a nice evolutionary rescue model that should be of interest to everyone. #PopGen #CanEcoEvo

Seeking a postdoc position? ​Balancing selection is a fascinating process: malaria resistance, self-incompatibility,etc. Yet, countless examples remain hidden in genomes! ​If this question intrigues you, the project led by Laure Segurel and Violaine Llaurens (Paris + Lyon) is perfect! urlr.me/Huj2De

Looking forward to the next POPGROUP meeting ? Still a few more days for registration. 👇

Only a few days left to register and join us in Lille for this first ever French edition of PopGroup!

I started a new job in Montpellier, France! Happy about new opportunities, sad about the state of things in the US. abetterscientist.wordpress.com/2025/10/26/w...

Does #SexualSelection fuel #Speciation? Our new #meta-analysis of comparative studies finds support for a positive relationship, but the rather moderate global effect suggests it’s not necessarily a dominant force. doi.org/10.1093/evle...

Wonderful day ending with @couplingdmi.bsky.social who spoke about dock mussels and how anthropogenic hybridization altered marine habitats Thanks, now I want to go diving in commercial ports in Brittany to see them

What a nice start and amazing first day of Jacques Monod conference on bridging the micro macroevolution gap #cjm25 plenty of fascinating talks and posters Didn't react quickly enough to illustrate all of them, just catch a few

Just took my breakfast at the #cjm25 speciation conference and around me in a 50m2 breakfast room were seated Nick Barton, Craig Moritz, Amaury Lambert, Maud tenaillon, Ludovic Orlando, Stuart Baird, John Welch, Daniel Matute etc... This density of 🤯🤯🤯 !

What a nice start to the Jacques Monod conference #cjm25 on speciation in Roscoff, Britany. What an inspiring lineup of talks and scientists. Even the weather is remarkably welcoming, for now, at least. 🤩

Arrived at Roscoff in Brittany for the conference Jacques Monod on #speciation. What a view ! Do we have a hashtag? #cjm25? First plenary lecture was tonight on our (in)hability to predict diversification rates from microevolutionary processes.

Very happy to announce that the next POPGROUP meeting will take place in Lille on 7-9 January ! Follow ‪@popgroup2026.bsky.social for all updates. 📢 Please share widely ! 📢‬

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 !

Come and join our team! A 2-year postdoc position is available in our "Genome Evolution" department at Univ Paris Saclay. We want to play with phylogenetic models accounting for horizontal transfers of transposable elements. Application& details on the official portal: emploi.cnrs.fr/Offres/CDD/U...

If you’ve heard about our study on ants producing two different species but are still confused about how it works (and don’t have time to read the paper), this 10-minute video made by @bengthomas.bsky.social is very informative: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z-O4... Paper: www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Hybridization and introgression are major evolutionary processes. Since the 1940s, the prevailing view has been that they shape plants far more than animals. In our new study (www.science.org/doi/10.1126/... ), we find the opposite: animals exchange genes more, and for longer, than plants

SINGER, our ARG inference method, is finally published and freely available online: doi.org/10.1038/s415... It was a long journey – 16 months from initial submission to acceptance. Is it just me, or has peer review gotten more arduous lately? 4+ rounds of review isn't so unusual these days...

You may have missed this #ant poster at #ESEB2025, but be sure not to miss the article just published in #openacess in @nature.com: www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Genome architecture and speciation in plants and animals. I learned a lot writing this with @dortizba.bsky.social, Silu Wang and Loren Rieseberg! doi.org/10.22541/au....

The consequences of polyploidy are... well, complicated. A deep dive into polyploidy in a massively successful tribe of grasses. A masterpiece led by Michelle Stitzer, representing the work of a lot of folks on the PanAnd project over last 7 years. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

[please share widely!] We have two PhD positions available at the Swedish Museum of Natural History: [Position 1] Birds, hybridization, genomes, island biology, biogeography, sexual selection 🦚, w/ me, Knud Jønsson, Martin Iredstedt and @stelkens.bsky.social et al recruit.visma.com/spa/public/a...

Hello BlueSky! Who wants to be my friend? Cheers, Camille Roux @couplingdmi.bsky.social
