So pleased to share that our paper (led by Paige Haffener and in collaboration with @drriyamia.bsky.social) on genomic variation in Oman is now published in AJHG! www.cell.com/ajhg/fulltex... 1/n

We've launched a department Trainee Emergency Fund, to help support EVERYONE BELONGING IN SCIENCE by meeting urgent financial needs of students and postdocs. Every gift will be matched, up to $1,000, by Nels Elde. Click to see a message from Aaron Quinlan and to donate! www.givecampus.com/s/w46xg1

I am hiring a staff bioinformatician for my new lab at the University of Utah! Please consider applying if you are on the hunt: employment.utah.edu/salt-lake-ci...

Come be our colleague! The University of Rochester is hiring a TT Assistant Professor in evolutionary genetics and genomics: apply.interfolio.com/173431.

Congrats to the lab! We were parasites of parasite data, and recovered DNA sequences from Hepatocystis (a close relative of human malaria parasites) from 37 wild non-human primates originally sequenced to look at the host genome, whose blood happened to be sampled while infected. shorturl.at/KluV8

Postdocs: Human Genetics at Utah will be hosting our annual Rising Stars in Genetics and Genomics Symposium in Sept. Apply here: shorturl.at/wBMg2 There will be sessions on developmental, evolutionary and disease genetics. A chance be invited to SLC to network here and with peers! Please share.

Quantgen GRC (16-21 Feb 2025) updates: we are now 75% subscribed! Deadline: 19 Jan 2025 BUT: We will pick talks from submitted abstracts 16 Dec and aim to send decisions before Xmas. So submit your abstracts now (even if not perfect - editable after submission)! www.grc.org/quantitative...

Recently learned about preLights -- and happy to support Alejandra (postdoc in the lab) as a contributor to highlight and generate discussion around preprints in evolutionary biology! t.co/oaiz287N4a
