Special thanks to the symposium organisers @Phylogenetrips @GaboriauT @KosiolG for the opportunity and for organising such an incredible session

[Ioanna Kotari @JaneKay27]

Incredible experience to present my work at #eseb2025 on the importance of incorporating population genetics forces in the inference of positive diversifying selection 🦍🐭

So grateful to @oeaw for this 2-year fellowship to be able to conclude my PhD studies! A huge thank you to my advisor @RBorges23 for all his guidance throughout my project and the application process, and thank you to @PopGenVienna for hosting me 🙏🏼

[PopGenViennaPhD @PopGenViennaPhD]

Major congrats to our PhD student Ioanna Kotari
@JaneKay27 in the @RBorges23 group who won a prestigious 2-year DOC fellowship from the @oeaw
(Austrian Academy of Sciences) with her project "PoMo-cod: Integrating Demography and Selection in Codon evolution." More on the project:

[Ioanna Kotari @JaneKay27]

In the same way the 64 puzzle pieces create different animal shapes, the 64 codons appear in different patterns in each species. Despite these differences, they have evolved with biases acting on the four nucleotides (four shared colours, one for each nucleotide A, C, G, and T).

[Rui Borges @RBorges23]

Really nice talk by @GaltierNicolas explaining how his new method APHID leverages phylogenetic conflict to distinguish and quantify ILS and gene flow during species divergence:

@RBorges23 @KosiolG @PopGenViennaPhD You can find our software #DECUB here, along with a nice tutorial:

[Ioanna Kotari @JaneKay27]

Super excited my first chapter is out now in @MolBioEvol! Thanks to reviewers and editor, we validated our genome-wide inferences with #DECUB in light of gene-specific heterogeneities on mutation biases and codon usage. 1/4

Exciting opportunity to join our lab in beautiful #Vienna! 🎓 Fully funded #PhDposition available, focusing on developing phylogenetic tools incorporating gene flow. More details 👇🏼👇🏼

[Rui Borges @RBorges23]

Looking for a #PhDposition in #EvolutionaryBiology? Then consider applying to this position: https://t.co/aCJdlEoPqr The project aims to develop phylogenetic methods to help us assess the prevalence and impact of gene flow during species divergence from phylogenomic data.
