Happy to see this work from my PhD finally published! I hope this small contribution can inform future studies that benefit the Atahualpa population, and perhaps more studies on local adaptations to diet in other populations as well.

Bonobos, endangered great apes that are among our closest relatives, might be more vulnerable than previously understood, finds a genetics study led by Prof @AidaAndres @UGI_at_UCL @uclbiosciences that reveals three distinct populations #biodiversity ucl.ac.uk/news/2024/oct/…

Today #SMBE2024 started. The organizers really put a lot of effort. They even carved coconuts with the logo. And I saw a smiling crocodile🐊 . Great day !

Two new preprints from my group today---this one was led by @Dandan_Peng with an assist from Obadiah Mulder. Dandan benchmarked a bunch of leading ARG-estimation methods with respect to a specific goal (1/n)

Dandan also did general benchmarking in the vein of @deboraycb's recent work, adding some new methods that have been introduced since their paper (8/8)

I also urge you never to use SciHub, whose purpose is to serve science, and instead continue to willingly embrace the scam that is commercial academic publishing, whose primary purpose is to maximise profit for private companies.

Don't use Sci-Hub — it's a "controversial" website with 84M+ research papers freely available. We should try to make billion-dollar academic publishers richer. Here's an updated thread on integrating Sci-Hub with Zotero to get free papers. Please don't do this😉

Here is a detailed thread about SINGER (thanks @yun_s_song for putting it together!). I will keep improving SINGER and developing new ARG inference/applications methods. Feedbacks/critiques are welcome, and they can be incorporated into our future works!
Yun S. Song@yun_s_song
We are delighted to share our work on a robust, accurate method for sampling genome-wide genealogies (aka ARGs) from the full posterior distribution. This is a product of years of hard work by @YunDeng5, who is jointly advised by @ras_nielsen and me. doi.org/10.1101/2024.0… 1/n
