I think Bluesky is a great platform and I’m here to stay. However, a bookmark function would make the experience SO much better and much more functional for research/ information gathering, especially for reporters. Pretty please @support.bsky.team @bsky.app ?

New study by @tribblelab.bsky.social @jimarcor.bsky.social @marcialescudero.bsky.social Michael May, Rosana Zenil-Ferguson and myself just out: Introduces a novel HiSSE chromosome model and demonstrates the importance of chrom. evol. in #sedge diversity. nph.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

Instead of listing my publications, as the year draws to an end, I want to shine the spotlight on the commonplace assumption that productivity must always increase. Good research is disruptive and thinking time is central to high quality scholarship and necessary for disruptive research.

My and Derek Setter's work on gene flow is now published in the latest issue of Genetics. We show that it is possible to detect past gene flow between two populations by summarising the asymmetry in pop-specific external branch lengths. 1/2 tinyurl.com/5ff8ch9e

macOS folk: This is your periodic reminder 🎗️ to: ```bash $ brew update && brew upgrade && brew cleanup ``` I just got back 10.7 GB & patched a slew of CVEs.

A little bomb. They're not saying hybridization didn't happen, they're arguing that it hasn't been conclusively shown, as the same patterns can be produced in other ways without Neanderthal admixture. An interesting read. Thoughts? www.nature.com/articles/s41...

New paper with @snaildit.bsky.social❗ You can use paralogs to reduce long-branch attraction! This will be especially helpful when there are no extant taxa that can be sampled to break up these branches. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

If you're interested in trying out LLMs in #rstats but don't know where to begin, I've added a few two vignettes to elmer: elmer.tidyverse.org/articles/elm... and elmer.tidyverse.org/articles/pro...

Sara Reardon's story on the genetics of coat color in cats was a delight to read (and not just because my sweet calico, Mona Lisa, got to make her Science debut). Now I'm just waiting for scientists to make a discovery about tabbies, so Mo's brother Vinny can get his moment in the spotlight!

NEW Publication!😄 Here, we show how #PhyKIT — a broadly applicable toolkit for #phylogenomics — can be used to construct phylogenomic data matrices (& quantify biases therein), detect anomalies in predicted orthology, calculate gene-gene coevolution, & more! 🔗: tinyurl.com/yc5ja4xz
