Last week, I took the Biodiversity Genomics course (@ibiogen-latam.bsky.social, Mendoza, Argentina). It was a super intensive but satisfying opportunity to get a glimpse of a variety of methods for analysing genomics data. Also, it was a great chance to meet talented Latin American researchers.

🚨New genus and species of Sonorini snake from Mexico, Yakacloalt tlalli. This is a rare species only known for a couple of specimens. In this paper we used multiple sources of evidence to support this new taxon. journals.plos.org/plosone/arti...

Very happy that our new paper on the odd, looped optic nerves of chameleons is now out! It turns out having highly mobile eyes require some pretty specialized connections! doi.org/10.1038/s415...

Looking back to a wonderful week of teaching biodiversity genomics in Mendoza, Argentina. The participants from 8 South and Central American countries learned the basics of biodiversity genomics from assessing data quality to performing population and comparative genomics analysis.
