Lab day off - escaping a WWII bunker in the Swiss Alps🏔 and fondue 🧀🫕

The Dept of Computational Biology, Uni Lausanne is deeply saddened by the sudden and tragic death of our colleague Alma Dal Co Alma Dal Co. Our department lost an exceptional scientist, an inspiring teacher, a caring mentor, and above all a generous and cheerful colleague. In memoriam: unil.ch/dbc/home/menui…

The outpouring of grief and support from the local and wider community is a testament to how deeply Alma touched us all. We hope to transmit those personal messages to her family and we started compiling an electronic memory book available here: kudoboard.com/boards/P0C6wD6…

Just finished our first sampling of 2023 on Lizard Island LIRRF

This year's field work started in Australia! Clownfish sampling by Lucy Fitzgerald matt and Sara Heim on Lizard Island LIRRF concluded!

😲🤓😲🤓🙃 Our paper Genes and sites under adaptation at the phylogenetic scale also exhibit adaptation at the population-genetic scale is now out in #PNAS 🙃🤓😲🤓😲 doi.org/10.1073/pnas.2… (🧵of the paper summary at x.com/Phylogenetrips…)

A new pre-print from SalaminLab: biorxiv.org/content/10.110… We show that many beneficial mutations in mammalian protein-coding genes are not the result of adaptation to a changing environment but rather back-mutations restoring ancestral states. Check out explanatory🧵by T. Latrille

So excited to share our recent work! 🎉 Just released 2 innovative tools in Nature Genetics: nature.com/articles/s4158… nature.com/articles/s4158… Huge applause to my great team of brilliant researchers who made this possible! Stay tuned for deeper insights.

This month's Highlight takes a deep dive into the evolution of clownfish. Featuring an article by Nicolas Salamin and Salamin's Lab at Dept of Computational Biology, Uni Lausanne #science #evolution #biology #genome buff.ly/44IaHwx
