Our new paper is out in PNAS!
We analyzed 125 high-coverage whole genomes from five Sudanese ethnolinguistic groups, to understand the evolutionary and demographic history of the region.

Hello world! 👋
Som el Departament de Medicina i Ciències de la Vida de la @upf.edu. Vivim al @prbb.org i ens presentem de la millor manera possible: donant la veu al nostre personal i deixant clar que entre tots, 'we make science happen'! 💫
T'animes a seguir-nos? 🙋🏻♀️🙋🏾
Benvinguts @melisupf.bsky.social! 🦋
Tota la #PRBBCommunity, d'una manera o altra, posa el seu granet de sorra per contribuir a fer la millor ciència i així ens ho demostreu en aquest vídeo! 🥰👇
Excited to share our new preprint🙌
It's the first human WGS study in Sudan. We uncover one of the strongest selection signals to date, pointing to post-admixture adaptation to malaria in Copts. Huge thanks to all co-authors. @aidaandres.bsky.social @jgarcia-cal.bsky.social @ebosch1972.bsky.social

#WithoutNSF I wouldn’t be a scientist. I studied thanks to an NSF fellowship. NSF funded my PhD and postdoc, and funds the work of my students today. W/O NSF our team couldn’t do the ancient DNA studies that teach us about our ancestors and their legacies. #SaveNSF www.nievescolonlab.org

We find an overlap of signatures of selection and genomic regions showing local ancestry deviation, which may indicate selection events facilitated by admixture. For example, the selection signals in the LCT locus and the MHC region both showed Steppe ancestry enrichment. 🏇
24.04.2025 15:38 — 👍 3 🔁 2 💬 1 📌 0With the information of local ancestry, we inferred regions with an excess of any main ancestral components that shaped European populations: West Hunter Gatherers, Early European farmers, and Steppe ancestry. 👣

Using 704 whole genome sequences, we discovered novel candidates for positive selection putatively associated with immunity (UBL7, SMYD1, VAC14) and diet (FDFT1)🥩. Interestingly, SMYD1 is related to the presence of antigen AnWj, a receptor of Haemophilus influenzae.🦠
24.04.2025 15:38 — 👍 3 🔁 2 💬 1 📌 0We aimed to detect specific signals of adaptation in the Spanish population and infer which role past admixtures, such as the Neolithic Revolution, play in this process.🧑🌾
