@MatthewZipple @globus oh no! haha I've also been there. and at some point I expect I'll have to upload these data to the SRA... 🙃

shoutout to @globus for making it possible to transfer 6 TB of data across institutions without it being a whole thing. highly recommend!

I wrote about the amazing experience I had as a @VariantBio Standley Fellow this summer! This in-depth, hands-on opportunity at a biotech start-up was easily one of the most formative experiences I've had during my PhD, both technically and professionally.

@mafnoor this is super interesting and useful! and I'm excited to see those data getting used.

Congrats @kkorunes!!! Thanks for a perfect Friday morning read 😁

Another great study spearheaded by the amazing @kkorunes -- lots more nuance on the D. pseudoobscura/ D. persimilis inversion/ speciation story than we previously imagined! onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/ev…

@mafnoor Thank you, Mohamed!! So happy to have this one out-- though it's bittersweet that this marks my last dissertation chapter being published :)

@plantbotsci AAH I'm so excited for you but also in so much denial about you having left Durham

I guess it’s time to more permanently change my date & time settings on my laptop to PST! More updates soon!

@guerruhroh @JoannaRifkin @brown_birds @ksamuk basically, similar to what others have mentioned, we recommend filtering invariant and variant sites separately in bcftools and combining the two resulting files. (also, thanks for the pixy mention!)
English
@guerruhroh @JoannaRifkin @brown_birds @ksamuk we shy away from filtering within pixy since we think the dedicated tools like bcftools are better equipped to do it properly, but we try to provide some example commands and recommendations for doing so: pixy.readthedocs.io/en/1.0.0.beta1…

New review! led by postdoc Marina Voinson with Charlie Nunn. ecoevorxiv.org/zk2dq/
Of ~30 primate malaria parasites only a handful regularly infect humans; which have potential to spread and how can we intervene? We consider from an ecological and evolutionary perspective.

My lab at Johns Hopkins is recruiting a postdoc. We use computational and statistical methods to study human evolutionary and reproductive genomics. Questions and informal inquiries are welcome. 🧬 rajivmccoy.files.wordpress.com/2021/04/2021_p…

To my North Carolina friends: it only takes a few minutes to voice your opposition to the atrocious anti-trans bills being considered in our state. we should all be outraged that SB514, SB515, and HB 358 have even been introduced

.@kkorunes and I are pleased to announce version 1.0.0 of our software pixy, which computes missing data aware pi, dxy (and FST), from 'invariant sites' VCFs. Check it out here: github.com/ksamuk/pixy
New features!
- 3x faster📈
- Multicore🔢
- Lower memory req.🤏
- BED files🛏️
