Our first forum starts soon! Check it out... + shoutout to our committee @CartneyAnn @timmybash001 @PalmadaMarc @Dr_Stoat @Felipe_SilvaE @samfrowe @drjuefish @jasonwilliamsNY @IgiehonOzede @cc7740, John, Jianguo, Taukondjo, Nicolette, Bouabid, + Olivia
During #BG2021 we have 2 Fora on Justice, Equity Diversity and Inclusion organised by our @EBPgenome JEDI Committee. How this committee came to be? What genomics for all means? Check this small piece by @SadyePaez & I Genomics for all sangerinstitute.blog/2021/09… via @sangerinstitute

Now out in Systematic Biology (academic.oup.com/sysbio/arti…), for those of you who might like to (e.g.) estimate dN/dS using dinosaur amino acid sequence data (there are other applications too). xitter.cf/EBIgoldman/status/1183…
Who knew you could estimate dN, dS and predict ancestral protein structures from amino acid sequences alone? Well done @cc7740 @uperron3 @DearbhaileCasey @zihengyang for this piece of work: xitter.cf/biorxiv_evobio/status/…

I thought it might kill me; the longest paper I've ever written is published - Large scale variation in the rate of germ-line de novo mutation, base composition, divergence and diversity - journals.plos.org/plosgeneti… with almost all data and scripts available at 10.5061/dryad.935vc.
