Wanna learn how to explore your genomic data to know how related your samples and populations are to each other? Come and join us and @jolijnerven.bsky.social on our next #AaRCademy workshop! April 16h at 14:00 CET!

Proud to see this paper from @akopyan.bsky.social's PhD published in Science, with co-first author @fishyomics.bsky.social

Silversides adapt across a steep temperature gradient through multiple chromosomal inversions that maintain continuous trait variation rather than simple ecotype switches

Please join me and my colleagues at the Department of Biology, #LundUniversity in #Sweden! We have an open position as Associate Senior Lecturer in Molecular Microbiology. Open for all who defended their PhD within the last 7 years.

Deadline to apply: April 28 2026.

Genomic erosion in the assessment of species' extinction risk and recovery potential Abstract. Many species are undergoing rapid population declines and environmental deterioration, leading to genomic erosion. Here we define genomic erosion

What is biodiversity? What is genomics? How do they work together to support species monitoring & conservation? 🌍🧬

The #Connections series explores these questions: biodiversitygenomics.eu/category/con...

@unbiodiversity.bsky.social @biogeneurope.bsky.social @iboleurope.bsky.social

And it does not end there ... as we will continue our efforts through the #Biodiversity #Genomics #Europe PLUS (BGE+) project biodiversitygenomics.eu/2026/02/16/b...

Thanks, Sibelle!

Finally published! We first uploaded this preprint in 2022 but dropped it after frustrating reviews.
It was well received and cited, motivating us to revisit it.
We added new content, including simulations and a proof-of-concept genomic green status assessment.
