Unifying statistical #genetics & #phylogenetics. Joshua G. Schraiber Doc Edge & Matt Pennell show that the distinct ways of mapping phenotypes while controlling for ancestry in these two fields are actually special cases of the same general approach #PLOSBiology plos.io/4eZvKiv

Today, it happened. Conservatives and liberals for the first time since World War II built a majority with the Far Right on a vote in the German Parliament. Just after the commemoration of the Holocaust. Today is a dark day for German democracy.

Ich weise ausdrücklich zurück, was US-Vizepräsident Vance bei der Münchner Sicherheitskonferenz gesagt hat. Aus den Erfahrungen des Nationalsozialismus haben die demokratischen Parteien in Deutschland einen gemeinsamen Konsens: Das ist die Brandmauer gegen extrem rechte Parteien.
