They show how transposable elements (TEs) may drive haplotype diversity, enabling rapid adaptations.
More evidence for genome diversity’s role in bivalve resilience

🐚 We loved connecting with so many ambitious young pros from the #shellfish sector at #ASSG! 🎉 Huge welcome to those who joined our growing YAS shoal 🦪 Excited to support your journey and build the future of #aquaculture together. Check out our new members at the YAS social ⬇️
YAS had a fantastic time at the #ASSG conference in Oban! Our reps @BivalveRapunzel, @AmbreChap, and @RhiannaRees explored the latest in #shellfish, networked with industry leaders, and enjoyed a great seafood social.🦪
Blog coming soon!

Had a brilliant time at @roslininstitute's shellfish biotechnology workshop. It was great to see everyone, to meet some fantastic people and to get a huge inspirational boost!
Thanks a million @beatnim@TimReganLab and Nick Wade for another great event :)
Final days to apply for the research assistent position in my group to work on host-microbe interactions in IBD.
Closing deadline - 7th june

Excited to share our recent work on annelid comparative genomics, led by @Tom_Lewin. Using @darwintreelife data, we assembled a dataset of 23 genomes and discovered lineage-specific chromosome scrambling. 1/3
