New Paper Alert 📋🚨

The main paper of Diana Lobo’s PhD is now available at Genome Research (accepted version). Major accomplishment for ECOGEN team and co-authors 🥳🐺🐶 @CIBIO_InBIO

[Diana Lobo @DianaLobo90]

A few years ago, we started asking if the adaptation of Iberian wolves to anthropogenic landscapes could be associated with ancient introgression from domestic dogs. In our recently accepted paper at @genomeresearch we provide new insights: https://t.co/CiB6wRNXJ2 🐺🧬🐶

[Diana Lobo @DianaLobo90]

After 5 long years of work, I’m thrilled to share that the main paper from my PhD has finally been accepted in @genomeresearch 🎉 Exciting findings on Iberian wolves and dog introgression coming soon, stay tuned! 🐺🐶🔬

📖 #TheDiaryOfAScientist 10/26
Diana Lobo's life connects to wolves in many ways—from her last name ("wolf" in Portuguese) and growing up amid wolf tales, to her eureka moment studying Iberian wolves' genetic links to dogs.

🚨NEW PAPER ALERT 🚨 Very proud of our PhD student @diogofclima5 for his first paper! Check it out in @iScience_CP for a glimpse on the origin of livestock guardian dogs. @CIBIO_InBIO 🐶🧬

[Diogo Lima @diogofclima5]

My first paper is out. Livestock guarding dogs have been used to protect livestock for millennia, though little was known about them.
