We find that Denisovan ancestry in Eurasia spread through gene flow from early East Asians, but that the Jomon, very early inhabitants of Japan, had much less Denisovan ancestry than other early East Asians providing evidence for n ancient East Asian lineage with little to no Denisovan ancestry

When testing a computational data analysis method: simulated data are good for checking whether the method is doing what you think it should be doing, real data for checking whether what you think it should be doing is any good.

Dragon Man was a Denisovan! DNA and proteins both confirm it, giving this mysterious human lineage a face at long last. Hereโs my story. [Gift link] nyti.ms/44nQq1i

Illustration comparing the improvement process in software writing to rock climbing.
๐งต Bioinformatics faces a critical challenge: despite its importance, software quality often falls short due to the lack of proper development practices.
In our latest paper, we advocate for improving software quality in bioinformatics through teamwork.
