Excellent work QUILT2 from @zilongli21, @A_Albrechtsen and @robbie_stats! First big thing is on imputing the fetus genome before childbirth! Also, QUILT2 is read-aware and fast, which means more accurate results for long reads particularly, as well as animals and ancient DNA!
On behalf of @zilongli21 , @A_Albrechtsen and myself, I’m pleased to announce the release of QUILT2, a method for lc-WGS imputation using biobank scale reference panels that works on diverse sequencing input data including NIPT data.

Check out our new preprint! We've developed a simulation-framework that allows users to explore under what circumstances one can detect epidemic-driven selection using standard selection scan methods like Fst & iHS. All comments are welcome & appreciated!

New paper from our lab on the evolutionary history of giraffes!🦒Check out the thread below by @LauraDBertola for more and the paper here:
New paper out! 🎉🎉🎉 We take a deep dive into the evolutionary history of giraffes. 🦒 There is a lot of discussion about if this is 1 species (as it is currently on the IUCN Red List) or actually more than 1. This is crucial to guide conservation. 🧵

New paper from our group, led by @renzobalb, @LauraDBertola and @AnnaBruniche, and with multiple collaborators! "African bushpigs exhibit porous species boundaries and appeared in Madagascar concurrently with human arrival" 🐖🧬🌍⛵️
To start the new year off well, we got another paper published! 🎉🎉🎉 We explore the evolutionary history of African bushpigs and their mysterious presence on Madagascar. The study was a team effort, with multiple collaborators, and co-led by @renzobalb, @AnnaBruniche and me. 🧵

Big paper, with 41 authors, led by @LauraDBertola and with important contributions from former popgen members @AnnaBruniche and @KujaJosiah, discussing how we can improve integration of genetics and genomics in biodiversity conservation.
Just before the end of the year, we got another paper out! 🎉🎉🎉 It was a rather long process, capturing the thoughts and experiences from all coauthors, addressing how we can do a better job integrating molecular tools into biodiversity conservation: 🧵

Congrats Dr. Nursyifa! Well done!
A great PhD defense by @casia16, explaining both genomic methods and an in depth case study about Indonesian cattle. Congrats Dr. Nursyifa!

Check out a new paper from our group describing a new fast and accurate PCA method! Congrats to @zilongli21 @Rosemeis91 @A_Albrechtsen!
ever wanted a fast, accurate,low ram #PCA tool to analyze your genetic data, scRNAs data etc. The best PCA method is official on @genomeresearch now 😁
