Excited to see my latest work with @judithmank out now in @EvolLetters! Sex-biased gene expression at single-cell resolution: Cause and consequence of sexual dimorphism doi.org/10.1093/evlett…

🚨 Deadline for abstract submission for #Biology25 is in 10 days! Join us in Lausanne for the latest edition of Biology, the largest conference in ecology and evolution in Switzerland! Register at biology25.ch

We are delighted to host the Biology25 conference @UNIL on 13-14 February, 2025. We are also bringing four engaging Satellite Events on February 12th. 📢Registration and abstract submission are now open! Spread the word! #Biology25 Details on biology25.ch

Please RT 😊 We are looking for PhD candidates! @hgdarras @KellerValsecchi, @ketting_rene and I invite applicants for a PhD position to study sex determination in ants @imbmainz @uni_mainz funded through the @genevo_rtg . Deadline 15th July! 👉🏼 genevo-rtg.de/application/pr…

Two new jobs available in my group to work on AI approaches for quantifying animal colouration: Research associate: jobs.ac.uk/job/DFW385/res… Research technician: jobs.ac.uk/job/DFY181/res… Closing date for both 08 March '24 Please share widely!🙏 @EEB_Sheffield @ScienceShef

📣 Come work with us! 🎉 #PDRA position in my group @EEB_Sheffield on the #evolution and #genomics of sexual signals in stalk-eyes flies! Exciting questions and methods, awesome study system, and a friendly group and department.

Just out @NatureEcoEvo - @CorralLopezA 's tour de force! Functional convergence of genomic and transcriptomic genetic architecture underlying sociability. Heritability, GWAS and neuro-transcriptomics of collective behaviour nature.com/articles/s4155… w Niclas Kolm & many others.

Deep learning reveals the role of copy number variation in the genetic architecture of a highly polymorphic sexual trait. @_Axeman_ did it all - selection experiment, pedigrees, neural nets, GWAS - for the architecture of color and pattern in guppies biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Come catch my poster this afternoon at the San Paolo Cloisters (No 854) to chat about meiotic drive, flies and scRNA-seq. #SMBE2023

For those headed to #evolution2023, you can catch up on what we've been doing! - @Square_Hare's talk about the Signature of Early Y Chromosome Divergence on the Guppy Sex Chromosome is on Saturday at 11:15 in Pecos 230... 1/5

How does variation in Y degeneration affect Fast-X Evolution? Very happy to see the version of record of @IDarolti 's awesome paper at @molecology! With @Square_Hare @david_metzger and @EvoEcoAquatics onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/me…

Sex-biased genes are thought to be key to the evolution of sexual dimorphism, but what if they are a consequence of it? Read more in a recent paper @EvolLetters by @idarolti and @judithmank! doi.org/10.1093/evlett…

What is the cause of sex-biased gene expression? @IDarolti used single cell RNASeq to determine the role of regulatory versus developmental differences in sex-biased genes and their evolution rates. Now out at @Evolutionletters! academic.oup.com/evlett/advance…

Sex-biased genes are often assumed to result from regulatory change. Using scRNA-seq we show that developmental sex differences in cellular composition can also generate patterns of sex-biased expression and influence estimates of coding sequence evolution.

Interested in the #evolution and #genomics of exaggerated sexual ornaments? @ACCE_DTP #PhD to work with me, @Jon_Slate, @scottishwormboy & @andrew_pom More info here: findaphd.com/phds/project/a… Deadline: 8th May 📢Please RT!📢 @EEB_Sheffield #stalkeyedflies #singlecellRNAseq

I'm so pleased to share the latest work from @Y_Lin_Evo! She found extensive variation in germline de novo mutation rate in guppies, with interesting implications about the genetic basis of rapid adaptation. biorxiv.org/content/10.110… with @IDarolti @_Axeman_ and Jake Morris!

So pleased to see @Square_Hare 's first first-author paper from her PhD out @GenomeBiolEvol ! Evolutionary History of the Poecilia picta sex chromosomes. academic.oup.com/gbe/advance-ar… with @IDarolti @david_metzger @Y_Lin_Evo @EvoEcoAquatics

Sex-biased genes are often assumed to be the cause of sexual dimorphism, but what if they are just a result of it? The latest by @IDarolti - Sex-biased gene expression at single cell resolution: Causes and consequences of sexual dimorphism biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Excited to share this preprint of my latest work with @judithmank on sex-biased gene expression at single-cell resolution. Sex differences in cell type abundance can bias inferences of differential gene expression and patterns of selection! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
