Fantastic work, congrats to the Baums team and in particular Trinity. Our past HFSP grant Adaptasex continues to yield spectacular results
Timmy, the humpback whale stranded in Germany for 6 weeks, was released on Saturday after a chaotic rescue operation that shocked marine biologists. It's unclear where Timmy is now; he may already be dead.
Here's my story about the case:

Our work on chromatin evolution in brown algae is now published in @natecoevo.nature.com! We show that developmentally complex brown algae evolved without epigenetic silencing pathways long thought universal, underscoring why non-model lineages are important to study. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) has greatly expanded researchers' ability to study structural variants (SVs), that is, the variation in the presence, number, orientation or position of a DNA sequence. ....

🧬 New preprint on coral somatic evolution!
We compare the robust coral Orbicella faveolata with the complex coral Acropora palmata. 80x whole genome sequencing shows that O. faveolata has high fixation of somatic variants in older interior polyps consistent with a segregated germline.
