For a project, we needed a tool that will batch download phylogeographic DNA samples (like mtDNA and nucDNA) for lots of species, which have just been sitting on NCBI since the PCR and Sanger-sequencing era (ca. 2003-2015) and can still be hella useful, so I wrote one. It aligns the sequences, too 👍

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.

This recently-accepted study highlights the critical need to incorporate genomic erosion—the loss of genetic diversity, accumulation of harmful mutations, maladaptation, and introgression—into conservation assessments.

New paper with @birdpicsandscience.bsky.social out TODAY!!

We found that choosing "highly informative loci" (aka high fst loci) may bias results in common population genetic analyses

‘Highly‐Informative’ Genetic Markers Can Bias Conclusions: Examples and General Solutions
High-grading bias is the overestimation power in a subset of loci caused by model overfitting. Using both empirical and simulated datasets, we show that high-grading bias can cause severe overestimat...

Acacia paradoxa has a broad SE Australian distribution, occurs across starkly different habitats, and has remarkably variable morphology. Here is a photo snapshot of some of the diversity captured during my honours field work.

Sending out the DNA from these gorgeous Czech Short-eared Owl feathers today! I haven't done whole genome resequencing on non-invasive materials like feathers before, so I'm curious to see what we get #ornithology #populationgenomics

➡️ Nice experience sharing some results about the alien plant Cotula coronopifolia in Europe at #ESEB2025
🌱🧬

➡️ We found an unusual genetic structure shaped by selfing, introduction history and waterbirds 🦆

➡️ Great discussions and valuable feedback to shape our next steps ✅

If we analyzed these data correctly (that's a big if that we are trying to confirm) then they are so fucking interesting. #populationgenomics
