A real highlight was catching up with @haverfordedu alums @lvanaren @BloomJordana presently post-docing @PageLabXY and meet meet up with @UniIbadan alumna @bamghurl in Oxford - credit her for the photo. Plus, I had a blast with one @egg_book co-author. Guess which one! END

If you're an African scientist using @egg_book , #PHM709tweets or molecular training @NCDCgov as a way to build bacterial genomics expertise, esp for #AntimicrobialResistance #surveillance, consider enrolling for this @Africaseq course. Some Faculty are from @GHRUamr @UniIbadan

Copies of the 3rd edition of Genetic Analysis: Genes, Genomes, and Networks in Eukaryotes have finally arrived from Oxford University Press https://t.co/eOGnEu2p3m @haverfordedu

[Iruka Okeke @iruka_okeke]

Really clear explanations in this thread for @egg_book , #PHM709tweets and other students following #SARSCoV2 #Variant evolution.

[Iruka Okeke @iruka_okeke]

What does it mean genetically to be part mammal, part bird part reptile. vignettes from the #platypus genome for @egg_book students that illustrate how genomes are shaped.

[Iruka Okeke @iruka_okeke]

When mosquitoes lost the essential paired gene, it’s paralog gooseberry came to the rescue. @egg_book readers’ll enjoy this.

BREAKING NEWS:
The 2020 #NobelPrize in Chemistry has been awarded to Emmanuelle Charpentier and Jennifer A. Doudna “for the development of a method for genome editing.”

@egg_book readers, did you notice that each chromosome’s volumes are a different color?

[Iruka Okeke @iruka_okeke]

@firefoxx66 thread is really great tree-reading for @egg_book students, particularly those looking for good examples for the ‘Descent with modification’ chapter.

[Iruka Okeke @iruka_okeke]

Useful journal club for @egg_book students. Once you’ve read the #GWAS chapter & the paper, here are a couple of thot questions to keep you going. 1. Why does @BrentRichards19 keep emphasizing ‘needs replication’? 2. What would be possible next steps for finding the spp. gene?

Third edition of my textbook Genetic Analysis out April 23 as ebook, hardcover shipping May 23. Pre-orders open now #mutuations. #CRISPR https://t.co/OPDOGv9XYu

#PHM709tweets @egg_book and other students of molecular phylogenetics may want to digest this thread to fully understand the importance of rooting right as well as a few other things that can lead to erroneous or inadequately supported conclusions

[Iruka Okeke @iruka_okeke]

Any @egg_book readers meandering thr chapters 11 to 13 remote from their professors might find this thread, describing how #SARSCoV2 genome is read, really helpful and learn something about how the virus replicates

[EGGBook @egg_book]

Three years ago today...our textbook launch talk! @iruka_okeke @haverfordedu @HCLibraries

[Iruka Okeke @iruka_okeke]

A good read for @egg_book and #PHM709tweets students following the #nCoV19 #phiec

[Iruka Okeke @iruka_okeke]

Loved this as I like to teach like this too - it really is the best way. If you teach genetics and want some journal club material formatted for undergrad classes, check out @egg_book online resource centre.

awesome gift from @iruka_okeke "Genetics: Genes, Genomes and Evolution"! it was good reading on the plane and will make a great addition to the @SANBI_SA library when I finish reading it!
