Are you frequently conducting PCA/MDS analyses on genotype data (including ancient DNA)? You can now open Pandora's box by assessing their stability via bootstrapping with our new Pandora tool: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Always a pleasure to work on new tools with Gergely J Szöllősi Tom Williams and Benoit Morel

Poster submission deadline for the legend2024 Machine Learning for Evolutionary Genomics Data workshop legend2024.sciencesconf.org on the magnificent island of Crete is on April 1st - the program is also on-line now at legend2024.sciencesconf.org/data/pages/leg…

Our #phylogenomics study on the evolutionary relationships of birds based on whole genome analysis of 363 species using many of our software tools is now available as a preview article in nature.com/articles/s4158… press release: h-its.org/2024/04/01/avi…

Our Machine Learning for Evolutionary Genomics Data conference in Crete will be streamed via: us02web.zoom.us/j/88366345422?… Check the program at: legend2024.sciencesconf.org/data/pages/leg… - keep in mind that times are EET!

PhD and PostDoc positions in Nikos Nikos Vakirlis's lab, he's a great person, so you should seriously consider applying

Our review article about phylogenetic (gene tree-species tree) reconciliation is out. We make the case that reconciliation methods provide a natural framework for modelling/studying microbial evolution, summarise some previous work... academic.oup.com/ismej/advance-…

...and provide some pointers for trying out the methods. Many thanks to co-authors Gergely J Szöllősi Phil Hugenholtz Anja Spang (she/her) Laura Eme Paul Sheridan Adrian Davin Alexis Stamatakis Ben WoOdcroft Cecile Gubry-Rangin Lenard Szantho Rochelle Soo Noah Wahl
