At the start of my PhD, I was lamenting that there was no reference genome for the Wood frog. @DKiernanSkelly's classic response was, "Why don't we just do it?"
Six years later, we just published aRanSyl1 with

Join us Fri. at 10:30am to hear what local wood frogs can tell us about climate change:

#MLK2022 programming takes you into the @DKiernanSkelly lab @Yale with PhD candidate Yara Alshwairikh to meet a remarkable amphibian that can freeze solid in winter!
After >1 yr of zoom-only meetings, we had our first in-person @YaleBiosphere Hutchinson postdoc team meeting 🎉!
Lots of progress made, and so much more energy & fun working together in the same room. I ♥️ our team -- @elizabethsibert @natebedelman@JasonVleminckx @sarahtfried
I'm so excited to share our latest in @PNASNews! We take a high-level look at animal genomics including resource quality, taxonomic gaps, and representation. Fun working on this with @paulbfrandsen and @joannalkelley. A thread... 1/11

Our paper describing the chromosome-length mule deer genome assembly is up online @GigaByteJournal. Led by @BYU grad/undergrad students and faculty members and in collaboration with @thednazoo and @natebedelman. Funded by @UtahDWR https://t.co/OyfEb8GSmT
We are very excited to share our study of evolutionary history and introgression in Drosophila that came out today in @CurrentBiology https://t.co/n81Gf9meO5 1/7
Much updated preprint by @carl_veller@natebedelman & @pavitra451 on the effects of recombination and chromosome number on the short and long term purging of introgression https://t.co/N8AaPc2dPj
It is with great sadness we report the passing of the population geneticist leader, OEB Professor and @MCZHarvard curator, Dick Lewontin. He will be missed by the entire community and those beyond Harvard who had the privilege to know him.
Thrilled that our haplotagging Heliconius paper is now published! It combines the parallel evolution of hybrid morphs in two Heliconius species explored by @mel_rosina & @patoafan with a new linked-read technology developed by @frankyc1101 & Marek Kucka.
