Janez Jenko

I will teach the next Armidale Genetics Summer Course on "Theory and Tools for Designing Breeding Programs of Animals and Plants" 5-9th February 2024. See jvanderw.une.edu.au/aabc2024.htm. Book dates if interested. Registration will open soon.

AlphaSimR course edin.ac/3wfGSEj Week 2: Following the simulation of DNA, we inspect the founder population genomes, global simulation parameters (SP), creation of the first population object, and inspection of all the data stored for each such population object.

Preprint alert: “The benefits and perils of import in small cattle breeding programs” led by @janaobsteter, and with @janez_jenko @IvanPocrnic and @GregorGorjanc doi.org/10.1101/2022.1…

AlphaSimR course edin.ac/3wfGSEj Week1: Every field has an extensive vocabulary. To help newcomers, we have assembled an extensive glossary of commonly used terms when working with stochastic simulations of breeding programmes. Let us know if we are missing any key terms!

Preprint alert! New large-scale stochastic simulation of a long-term intense layer breeding programme. Work by @IvanPocrnic in collaboration with @janaobsteter ChrisGaynor AnnaWolc & @GregorGorjanc. @roslininstitute @GenomicsEdi doi.org/10.1101/2023.0…

Our very own SIMplyBee is out!!! SPREAD THE JOY! 🐝🐝🐝 Pre-print: doi.org/10.1101/2022.1… CRAN: cran.r-project.org/web/packages/S… Website: simplybee.info With @GregorGorjanc, @laura_strachan1, @JernejBubnic and @JanezPresern from @HighlanderLab and @KISinstitut 1/3

Exciting opportunity: join us as a core scientist (open-end position) in the @HighlanderLab at @roslininstitute. While our university admin is yet to process the post documentation, we are open to inquires and expressions of interest.

Vacancy: @IvanPocrnic @roslininstitute is seeking a Core Scientist in Quantitative Genetics and Breeding to work on developing innovative crossbreeding methods that can be rapidly implemented to address climate change challenges. Deadline May 9. elxw.fa.em3.oraclecloud.com/hcmUI/Candidat…
