A great day for bioscience and research on Lake Tanganyika. Congratulations Leona Milec with your fantastic PhD thesis! Many thanks to @JentoftSissel @molluscular and @CleantechUH for the splendid opposition. #fish #fisheries #genomics #tanganyika #norduniversitet #uhasselt

Nå er det altså så lite torsk i Oslofjorden at det er vanskelig å finne ut hvor mye miljøgifter den inneholder. nrk.no/stor-oslo/fors…

Snails 🐚 are slow, but they can evolve fast! Our new paper shows how one ecotype evolved into another on a tiny island 🏝️ within 30 years - and that we could predict changes at the phenotypic, but also at the genetic 🧬 level. 1/3 #Evolution #Genomics science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…
Today's FBA's lunch seminar about the genomic puzzles of the Atlantic cod continuum and cryptic ecotypes <°))))><... Thanks for the talk and visit, @JentoftSissel! @Norduniversitet
Dessverre vil forbud mot både yrkesfiske og fritidsfiske være et av tiltakene som må på plass for å hjelpe livet i #Oslofjorden. De miljøfaglige rådene fra landets ledende eksperter om nullfiskeområder må lyttes til i denne saken, @NFdep @kldep. amta.no/vil-stanse-all…
What does effective population size tell us about loss of allelic variation? By Allendorf et al. doi.org/10.1111/eva.13…
Alternativet om nullfiske i Indre Oslofjord, samt Færder nasjonalpark og Ytre Hvaler nasjonalpark er det som vil være i tråd med hva forskerne sier vi må gjøre for å hjelpe livet i #Oslofjorden. Nå trengs politisk handling i tråd med rådene @NFdep. nrk.no/stor-oslo/stat…
I have a fully funded postdoc position open in my lab. The postdoc will get to work on a whole genome sequence based population genetics project focused on several Greenlandic land mammals. For details see tinyurl.com/2zae8zym. Application deadline is September 27. Please RT.
Forsker @JentoftSissel peker på det @Naturvern kaller perverse subsidier: Om staten støtter fiskeriene gjennom billig drivstoff, oppmuntrer man altså de store, drivstoffslukende trålerne fremfor mer bærekraftig kystfiskeri. Statsfinansiert naturødeleggelse nrk.no/stor-oslo/stat…
👀 “findings suggest that parallel phenotypic evolution is associated with an unpredictable genomic response, with distinct components of the polygenic architecture shifting across each environmental gradient to produce redundant adaptive patterns.”
We are advertizing a #PhD position in our lab to study evolutionary genetics of adaptive immunity in humans and/or fish. We use computational and molecular approaches. Topic open, to be matched with student's interest/skills. Come join us! #MHC #HLA #TCR uni-hamburg.de/en/stellenange…
A 2 -yr postdoc position is available in the group of Daniel Ruzzante at Dalhousie Univ. pending a successful funding application. Experience in pop genetics w successful publ. record and proficiency in bioinformatics and analysis of lcWGS a MUST. Visit ruzzante.ca/no-title/
Back in 2020, Mike Singer, Camille Parmesan, and I showed that (population level) generalism emerges from eco-evolutionary dynamics of range expansion: rdcu.be/b4ff4, doi.org/10.1111/gcb.15…. Now further evidence that range expansion -> generalism, not vice versa:
Generalism in species interactions is more the consequence than the cause of ecological success rdcu.be/dO2Tr
Had the pleasure of presenting some of the work we've done with @nansenlegacy at #FSBI2024 conference the past week 🐟. Amazing conference, with so many great talks! Also got to see Bilbao, a beautiful city.
#FSBI2024 has been an absolut blast!! ✨ 👥 We've met, got to know each other, strengthened ties and, above all, we've shared our #science. It has been a great pleasure to have you all with us. We couldn't be happier. 😍 See you next year in Belfast! youtu.be/1pKEYd60-qc
Have had some wonderful days here in Bilbao at #FSBI2024 🙌🙌 A week full of talks spanning eDNA, population genomics on multiple fish species, long term forcasting to seafood traceability 🐟🐟🐟 @TheFSBI
Honored for being invited!! Have been some lovely fishy days 🐟🐟🐟 here in Bilbao! @TheFSBI #FSBI2024
We now have our second key note speaker of the day, Sissel Jentoft, who tells us about genomic architecture, sub populations and ecotypes of codfishes #FSBI2024
Two papers in @Nature present a new genome editing technique that enables the insertion, inversion and deletion of long DNA sequences at user-specified genome positions. The approach may provide an easier method of genome editing. go.nature.com/3RGkI8M go.nature.com/3RHBvIs
