How can we combine genomics, ecology, technology and other data streams to improve tiger conservation? 🐯
After a great workshop at @NCBS_Bangalore in April, the discussion continues at @tudelft (my hometown!).
There is an open symposium on 18 June - all are welcome!

Identifying close relatives in wild animal populations is fundamental across many research fields. Genetic estimates of relatedness have expanded rapidly in recent decades, drawing on a range of gene....
Few palaeogenetic studies have been conducted in southern Africa, potentially due to the expectation of very poor biomolecular preservation and the la…
Paleogenomic analysis of cave lions spanning >100 kya shows that extinct cave lions
formed a long-diverged evolutionary lineage from modern lions, with distinct demographic
histories and lineage-speci...
Near Oceanic populations harbor substantial cultural, phenotypic, and genetic diversity yet are drastically underrepresented in human genomics. We generated 177 high-coverage Near Oceanian whole genom...

With accelerating biodiversity loss, tracking both inter- and intraspecific diversity is critical, as within-species variation underpins population viability and adaptive potential. We developed a ne...
Abstract. Understanding how reproductive isolation (RI) evolves remains a central goal of speciation research. Quantifying RI is challenging, and researche
The Leadership for Conservation in Africa (LCA) works to influence, accelerate and bring about the protection of rain forests and selected eco-systems in Sub-Saharan Africa by taking hands with variou...
