🧵1/5 🧬 New paper from our group! We present the first whole-genome data for the giant forest hog, #Hylochoerus #meinertzhageni (GFH), filling a major gap in our understanding of African #suid #evolution 🐗🧬 📖 Read the full paper in iScience: doi.org/10.1016/j.is... #Genomics #Conservation

Final PhD-paper is now published in Bioinformatics. If you plan to genotype structural variants, then make sure to read our paper first. You will get fewer errors in your genotype calls and better genotype quality: academic.oup.com/bioinformati...

🧵1/5 Thought long-read sequencing had “solved” structural variant genotyping? We did. Turns out many SVs still have high genotype error rates with current tools. Our new method SVUPP uses long-read pre-phasing to reduce errors and improve genotype quality doi.org/10.1093/bioi...

We sequenced and analyzed the world's rarest large mammal, the #saola 🦄. That turned into a cool paper substantially increasing what we know about this elusive animal, its evolutionary history, population structure, and long-term decline. Check it out here 👇 www.cell.com/cell/fulltex...

Genomes of critically endangered saola are shaped by population structure and purging
The generation of whole-genome sequencing data from 26 saolas provides insights into the phylogenetic placement, population structure, historical decline, and genetic diversity in one of the world’s m...

Really fascinating bit of work on #genetics of #Greenland - it really demonstrates why it's important to include people from diverse origins in genetic databases, but more importantly, it's also about HOW to include indigenous people in research + data sovreignty. : www.nature.com/articles/s41...

We illustrate that including data from Greenlandic Inuit can greatly reduce inequity in genomic-based healthcare in Greenland and other indigenous Arctic populations.

What started as a small side-project ended up being the main project of my PhD and is now published in @nature.com 🙏

The Greenlandic population offers significant potential for precision medicine. The largest analysis of its kind is now in @Nature. A big thank you to all participants in the health surveys throughout the last 25 years 🙏 www.nature.com/articles/s41... 🧵1/6
