📣What an incredible second day! Participants split into two tracks and dove straight into the command line running population genomics statistics hands-on.
The terminals were flying! 💻

Our director Prof. Dr. Emre Keskin attended the 10kLepGenomes / Project Psyche spring meeting at the University of Liverpool, where working group sessions focused on the next steps for Lepidoptera genome data analysis. 🧬🦋 @10klepgenomes.bsky.social @projectpsyche.bsky.social
🦋 With more than 160,000 described species, butterflies and moths represent one of the largest branches of life on Earth.
That diversity is why EBP-affiliated initiatives such as Project Psyche are dedicated to sequencing Lepidoptera genomes.

LepEU, the European Lepidopteran Population Genomics Consortium, was launched in 2023 to coordinate continental-scale collections and generate population-level genomic data for butterflies and moths ...
Today we close the @projectpsyche.bsky.social spring meeting at @liverpooluni.bsky.social. Final discussions and the summary session helped define our strategy for the coming months of data analysis 🧬🦋!
