My 1st dissertation chapter was published recently on hybridization of manakins and genomic and phenotypic introgression overtime in Panama: doi.org/10.1093/evol...
Ben Vernasco and I also published a paper on variation in telomeres and heterozygosity across the hybrid zone: doi.org/10.1111/mec....
Our paper on the genome assembly and annotation of the Antarctic bald notothen (Trematomus borchgrevinki) is now available in G3!
This paper was lead by @niraj-rayamajhi.bsky.social, in collaboration with Bushra Fazal Minhas, Chris Cheng, and @jcatchen.bsky.social.

Snow geese fill the sky at sunset in Washington's Skagit Valley.
I am delighted to announce that the Department of Biology at the University of Washington is advertising for a tenure-track assistant professor position on the quantitative understanding of collective behavior.
I will be chairing the search; details are here: apply.interfolio.com/130336
Congratulations to Dr. Pearl Rivers, who did a great job of defending her dissertation research today!
Chromosome genome scan showing private alleles from two species in a hybrid population

I have been having a lot of fun revising private allele analysis in #Stacks from #RADseq data. What are private alleles? Given SNPs in a set of populations, a private allele is found only in a specific population. 1/n
