Remember the famous UKB migration paper? We found that internal migration also shapes population structure in Estonia. Key patterns replicate within families. Paper link in the last tweet.

Our new Nature Genetics paper on human segmental duplications (SDs) provides a pangenome perspective of SDs, new potential protein-coding genes, and greater complexity in human variation with implications for disease and evolution. rdcu.be/d5AD9

Finding relevant papers for literature review takes a lot of time. So, MIT researchers built Undermind, an AI-powered search engine. It can generate well-researched overviews on any topic and is 10-50 times better than Google Scholar. Here's how to use it:

🚨Our latest preprint on ancient Italy is out with a new Republican sample!🚨 Is the Roman Empire ancestry shift towards the Near East really an Imperial thing? ⏲️We show that it probably began from the Republican period 200 years before the Empire. 1/n tinyurl.com/yk4vresz
