Our new preprint: « The Bayesian Phylogenetic Bootstrap, Application to Short Trees and Branches » biorxiv.org/content/10.110… In this approach, bootstrap MSA sites are given continuous weights rather than being sampled with replacement.

Thrilled & honoured to receive the CNRS silver medal. Many thanks to all fantastic collaborators I had all these years, to @CNRSbiologie @institutpasteur & esp. to section 21 for proposing me now and for daring to tenure me barely a few weeks after finishing my PhD back then.

#TalentsCNRS 🥈 Le CNRS a décerné 25 médailles d’argent en 2024. La médaille d’argent distingue des chercheurs et des chercheuses pour l’originalité, la qualité et l’importance de leurs travaux, reconnus sur le plan national et international. 👏 👉 cnrs.fr/fr/cnrsinfo/le…

Purchase now and uncover the exclusive recipe for sopa seca at github.com/aloctavodia/BA…! Opt out, and you'll still receive the sopa seca recipe, but the absent context may turn it into a culinary enigma. Is it just a recipe or a secret code? packt.link/JrkVW

Very proud & happy to see this out - a giant leap forward in our understanding of morphological model adequacy led by the brilliant @lauramulvey479 !!

Excited to see the first chapter of my PhD submitted!🥳 We show the impact discrete character evolution models on tree inference & present an approach for assessing the adequacy of models using posterior predictive sims. Check our preprint & tutorial 👇🏻biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

How suitable are the current bioinformatics tools used to help understand how viruses evolve, especially with the amount of sequencing data available?🤔 Check out my latest paper where we benchmarked eight tools for detecting recombination in virus sequences!

If any non-UK folk with (or soon to have) a PhD are interested in applying for a Newton International Fellowship to work with me at the University of Bath (UK) on pangenome algorithms for bacteria and/or plasmids, do get in touch! Deadline 13th March! royalsociety.org/grants-schemes…

Last few days to apply for a postdoc position on the evolution and dynamics of microbial genomes !

New postdoc position in our lab for a project led by Marie Touchon (bioinformatics) in coll with @ten_olivier (experiments) on the evolution and dynamics of microbial genomes to understand their diversification by gene flow. Check research.pasteur.fr/en/job/postdoc…



This is some really nice work that demonstrates convergent evolution of virulence in chickens, using ancient genome samples. This :thread gives a nice summary and here is a perspective of the field that I wrote: science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

The culprit is Marek’s Disease Virus – a cancer-causing herpesvirus of chickens that causes mortality in >90% of unvaccinated birds. Highly transmissible and persistent in the environment, the #poultry industry spends 💵$bns controlling this disease. 2/14

It was a pleasure to get together with a group of @molecology editors who regularly handle microbiome papers to write a piece outlining some issues we see and how we can improve practices overall. We also share some exciting future directions: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/me…


This!

What is the value of a PhD? The other day I commented on the financial value, but let's dive a little bit deeper into the value in terms of personal growth and development of career skills. (This is long. Click to expand and read.) x.com/ClausWilke/sta… Does it make sense to…



Great permanent research opportunity in the Computational biology department at @institutpasteur in Paris (which I recently joined) with @gregory_batt . I can attest to a highly stimulating environment and excellent working conditions!

We would like to hire a research scientist on a Inria permanent position to join our team, InBio. We are located at Institut Pasteur and benefit from a truly outstanding work environment. Interested? Contact: gregory.batt@inria.fr research.pasteur.fr/en/team/inbio/
