Two whale groups (fin whales) separated by seas—but not by genes, study finds phys.org/news/2026-04...
@rsbiello.bsky.social et al. present the first whole-genome analysis of Mediterranean fin whales, showing that although these form a distinct genetic cluster, they are not fully isolated from North Atlantic populations.

Happy to see this one out!
Not only for the science, but because it was the first project we led as a group.
This paper helped us establish a collaborative culture and good relationships, shaping how we want to work together in the future.
I feel lucky to work with this bunch!

A paper in Genome Biology and Evolution discovers that the endangered Mediterranean fin whale is not completely isolated from Atlantic groups. Both Atlantic and Mediterranean populations have declined...
Abstract. Climate and land use change have increased human–wildlife interactions, potentially reducing wild species density and prompting behavioral adapta
@xuejingwang.bsky.social Wang et al. analyzed the genomes of three Mauritius bird species that experienced extreme population bottlenecks, showing that evolutionary context is essential for interpreting genomic risk.
