not with me on it, but if you are curious about workflows for non model organisms that can help in quantifying high impact variants and hopefully genetic load, find the poster P03.060 today - the one with the boaring pig in the bottom ๐Ÿซก

first day of @eseb2025.bsky.social in Barcelona is off to a great start !

first with a deep time mammoth talk with @knmoreland.bsky.social , then a little chat with @ergabiodiv.bsky.social ,

followed by some ecology and then some duplications on the schedule.

I am starting a computational lab at LIOS, Riga, Latvia, and going to recruit a few people. Please DM if you are interested in a postdoc or PhD position in my Metabolic Research Group within the TARGETWISE project. I can highly recommend Riga, it is a beautiful city with very good living conditions.

I attended last year, and highly recommend it - even as a postdoc having a long(er) background in popgen!

After not having been active in popgen during my PhD, this course was the perfect mix of freshening up old knowledge and getting the latest state-of-the-art solutions and updates.
