Centre for Tropical Bioinformatics and Molecular Biology - developing solutions to solve issues in the tropics using molecular data and bioinformatics

[Ira Cooke @iracooke]

Our paper on the popgen of Kimberley corals is out today in @MolBioEvol. Deep WGS and amazing tools from human genomics let us track their evolution since the last ice-age and identify genes for survival in a tough inshore environment.
