Great effort! So eager to see #Erebia taking off
๐จ New ERGA-BGE study alert! ๐จ @BioGenEurope The reference genome of Erebia palarica, a montane butterfly endemic to North-West Iberia ๐ฆ, is now available. Explore its insights for biodiversity ๐โจ โก๏ธ Read the full preprint: #genomes for #biodiversity

Looking forward to get the #holocentric community together @UniNeuchatel Thanks to @snsf_ch we can also offer some travel awards! ๐
So excited to be organizing this with @KayLucek! Come to our lovely swiss city and share with all your network, we're gonna have a great time! ๐งฌ๐ฆ๐ฑ๐ชฑ

Well done! Let's explore the role of 3D genomic changes during speciation in #holocentrics and beyond
Happy to share our press release (in French) from @UniNeuchatel! We propose a new 3D genomics view to help understand species diversification ๐งฌ๐ฑ๐ฆ with @crazy_chipkali @scueridae @KayLucek -> The press release: -> The paper:

So exciting! What a great outcome of a group effort! Now we need to get the empirical side sorted ๐
๐จ ๐งต We (@CamilleCornet17 , @scueridae , @KayLucek & I) are delighted to share our perspectives on how the 3D genome structure could be both a cause & a consequence of speciation, just out in @TrendsGenetics !!Keeping reading ๐๐พ 1/4
