Just now catching my breath after a fantastic #SMBE2025 a few weeks back. I’m deeply grateful to the local organizers and to @OfficialSMBE for the Graduate Student Excellence Award and for the chance to share my work. It was an honor to present among such brilliant researchers.

I'm honored to receive the Graduate Student Excellence Award and excited to present my research in Beijing this summer!
👋 For the next two weeks, we will highlight our GSEA recipients - we start with Hannah Verdonk, PhD student @TempleUniv
Hannah works on improving bioinformatic tools to account for weak selection on synonymous codon usage. 💻

I'm so grateful to be speaking alongside so many other talented graduate students! Looking forward to sharing ideas and connecting at SMBE - hope to see you there!
We have met them already, but when in Beijing, make sure not to miss this amazing set of talks by the winners of the Graduate Student Excellence Award, presented at a dedicated symposium at the start of #SMBE2025. 🙌

Excited to share our new paper in Science Advances! We investigated the evolution of endothermy in ray-finned fishes by integrating phylogenomics, ecomorphology, fossil occurrence, and comparative genomics across 205 marine vertebrates.

1/ Genome-wide (and other) positive selection screens in genomes may be severely biased by alignment and other errors. biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/… we (@averyselberg, @NathanClark111, @ChikinaLab, @nekrut, @stvnwvr, @aglucaci, @timsackton) propose a simple fix.

Watch @hannahverdonk's talk entitled "MSS: A codon model with Multiple classes of Synonymous Substitutions" at #Evol2024. She highlights the impact of using independent pairs of synonymous substitution rates on diverse datasets. youtu.be/X1ZQIXi9vAY?si=z6QJ…

Watch @aglucaci's presentation on "Quantifying natural selection in coding sequences" given last week at the @metasub 2024 conference in Tokyo! He features application and technical description of the BUSTED and aBSREL methods. youtube.com/live/jcA_lwcGb40…

Excited to share our latest paper on optimizing genetic distance thresholds for inferring HIV-1 transmission networks. Our heuristic scoring approach adapts to diverse epidemics with an aim of improving identification of clusters & aiding public health interventions.

The @hyphy_software wasm module has been incorporated into biowasm. Really excited about the potential here.

You can now run @hyphy_software entirely in your browser thanks to @emscripten, @observablehq and biowasm (@RobAboukhalil). Simple example in observablehq.com/@spond/hyph…
