I am happy to announce that @mikkelschierup, @SkovLaurits, @benmpeter and I are publishing our research today in @NatureComms. nature.com/articles/s4146… Spoiler alert: We found that there has been changes in generation intervals among populations. Wanna know more? 🧵👇 1/14

Happy New Year! Our GPN-MSA paper is finally published, under a slightly different title from the preprint. Please check it out and share it with your colleagues. doi.org/10.1038/s41587… 1/4

I 100% recommend Laurits offer! After working with him in many projects, I’m sure he will be an awesome supervisor with plenty of cool projects!

Researchers from @AarhusUni_int & @Harvard introduce TRAILS — a hidden Markov model that accurately infers time-resolved population genetics parameters for ancestral branches using a multi-species alignment of three species and an outgroup. See the study: plos.io/3wUeniH

@kalle_leppala Just… wrong

Oh my fucking god

@elizostrow Newton's Prism Experiments. I think that physics are in general very elegant. In biology things look more slimy and alive (I’m a biologist 😅)

What do you think was the most elegant experiment you’ve ever seen? (I have my own suggestion, but curious to know what others think.)

In light of global climate change I have a proposition for my fellow North Americans— siesta

I am very proud to announce that our paper “Characterizing the evolution and phenotypic impact of ampliconic Y chromosome regions” in Icelandic men has been published in Nature communications! @Naturecomms rdcu.be/dgckg @mikkelschierup @SkovLaurits @MoiCollMacia

@acaradeperro @vialliure Gràcies a Déu! Em pensava que era l’únic sonat que estava fart de la “bossitis” de RAC1!

The wonders of population genetics allow us to reveal the echoes of the tumultuous times our ancestors survived, forever imprinted in our genome. In this thread, I'll share my experience replicating one of my all-time favourite papers by @lh3lh3 and @richard_durbin

Congratulations to Noor with her phd! Incredibly well defended! And with extremely good food afterwards, thanks to her family!

Are you an evolutionary/population geneticist in Denmark? The 2nd EPIC conference will take place on 21-22 August 2023 in Copenhagen. Come along for two days of great talks and networking! #EPICdk23 Hosts: @BIO_UCPH @Globe_UCPH @PopGenDK Register now at: popgen.dk/epic/

@jgschraiber @vsbuffalo They also don’t explain the distribution of archaic ancestry in human pops: it worked for Neanderthals, but I’m certain that pop structure can’t explain Denisova component. I think, they want to raise the point that archaic admix might be inflated by pop struc. That’s it.

Just took a look at this paper (h/t @vsbuffalo), and it's interesting. Very thorough, all things considered. Surprised it doesn't cite Durand et al (2011) discussion of an ancient structure model. Fig 2 surprisingly compelling, particularly panels A and F biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

@apragsdale The outcome

I have a good friend in CPH who could sneak in the train and get the bag for me. Thanks for nothing @omDSB…

I called costumer service and asked if they could contact to the staff in the train. They told me this was IMPOSSIBLE and the only solution was to send a EMAL (thank God it was not a post card) and told them my situation, and MAYBE on Monday they would answer…

#DSB @omDSB I forgot a bag pack on a train this morning and I would like to contact the train staff to keep it safe. Customer service told me to write an email, but by the time this email will be read, the bag will be stolen. Twitter, help me please 🙏🏼

Well, it wasn’t office chairs. Say hello to the brand new GenomeDK mugs! Come by our office to get your own GenomeDK-branded coffee consumption vessel!

@GenomeDK_AU It’s going to be a disappointment if they are chairs 😅

@MoiCollMacia I know that you're hinting at our extreme productivity levels here - don't flatter us!

Is it a popcorn machine? New chairs? A quantum computer from the future? Or a 1:50 model of the entire cluster? What do you think? The big reveal is tomorrow.
