    Michael Dannemann and I wrote a mini-review about the latest results on archaic admixture and adaptation in humans. It's a preprint, so comments welcome!

    Please RT! Love studying inference problems in phylogenetics and macroevolutionary modeling? I'm recruiting PhD/postdoc researchers to join me at in Summer/Fall 2019. Email/DM me if interested. Find more details here:

    A Neandertal/Denisovan F1. The most absurd possible interpretation of the data turned out to be correct. This was a super fun project, with lead Viviane Slon, , Svante, and many others. I'm glad it's out!

    This comes a bit late but I've rarely seen as clear and engaging of a talk in theoretical biology as the one on model narratives by yesterday at . Masterful combo of science + communication.

    Cool stuff by on hybridizing genomes in swordtail fish. Different hybrid populations have different hybrid ancestries and may harbour bimodal ancestry distributions due to assortative maring.

    We wrote a paper and posted it to bioRxiv: then, while in review, a new data source came out, completely contradicting our results. So, together with a crew of additional collaborators, we wrote a totally different paper instead:
