Here's a great university profile of an even better graduate student, Jeon, JongYoon Check it out here: ag.purdue.edu/news/departmen…

Jong Yoon Jeon deciphers the ancient, evolutionary history found in genomes. The PhD candidate in Purdue Forestry & Natural Resources explores the front line of the field of conservation genetics. purdue.ag/jong-yoon-jeon

We are so proud of the work Jong Yoon Jeon is doing in Dr. J. Andrew DeWoody's lab on genomic diversity. Check out his newest paper from Evolutionary Applications here: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/ev…

Our latest paper is now out on "Thematic Layers of Genomic Susceptibility for Conservation Monitoring" in Molecular Ecology | Molecular Genetics Journal | Wiley Online Library onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/me… Jeon, JongYoon Andrew Mularo Erangi Heenkenda Check it out!

How do genomic diversity metrics relate to Red List/threatened species designation? This study suggests that population genomic data and additional criteria should be considered when identifying species at risk with @k_koreana and J. Andrew DeWoody doi.org/10.1111/eva.70…

The Conservation Genetics course below will be a hybrid course! There will be an in-person component in May, but the hybrid part may open up opportunities for folks who currently have no funding for travel! 👇👇👇 African nationals can participate free of charge! 👆👆👆

Happy New Year to the world. We are beginning our slow trip to Europe for a Fulbright experience. 🤞

Important point: "Simply put, an aversion to death in the Global North should not limit the capacity of wildlife managers in the Global South to utilize death in their management practices." Zoos must embrace animal death for education and conservation pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn…

Yet another well-deserved honor for Dr. Zollner, a terrific colleague who always has the best interests of students and the department in mind.

Congratulations to all these Awardees but especially to MS student Julia Buchanan-Schwanke for all her hard work! facebook.com/share/p/14hMTU…

Congrats to Drs. Mathur, Tomeček, Tarango-Arámbula & Perez; our genetic load paper recently won the Outstanding Scientific Publication Award from the Texas Chapter of The Wildlife Society (its 2nd best paper award) :) SSE Samarth Mathur academic.oup.com/evolut/article…

#Congratulations🎉 Abhinav Tyagi from Uma Ramakrishnan's lab is awarded the 2025 Smith Fellowship for pursuing Post-doctoral research in applied conservation science Purdue University

This year winner's research explores how genetic diversity (GD) could help improve IUCN Red List rankings🧬🌎 This is relevant because conservation assessments often rely on census size & demographic trends, but these are hard to estimate for many species doi.org/10.1111/eva.70…

Congratulations to Jong Yoon but also to the rest of this great team! Jeon, JongYoon Erangi Heenkenda Anna Brüniche-Olsen Andrew Mularo Gina Lamka Janna Willoughby Purdue Forestry & Natural Resources Purdue Institute for a Sustainable Future Purdue Agriculture Evolutionary Applications

Congratulations to Natalie!

Congrats to Jeon, JongYoon for receiving a Mentors Travel Grant from Purdue's Honors College

A postdoc in my lab is available ASAP to develop and employ epigenetic clocks for demographic studies. Prospective applicants should review this out-of-date webpage (purdue.edu/fnr/sites/dewo…), then contact me via email (attach a current CV) to see if a video chat is warranted.
