On Monday, I will remotely talk at #AALAS about the evolution of exudivory in marmosets and why it matters for husbandry of captive marmosets. Really excited to share some marmoset evolution biology that can help biomedical and industrial applications and improve marmoset wellbeing.

This week at #SIP I talked about my work on characterization of the marmoset MHC I and II regions from the marmoset T2T genome and wild marmosets. We are building up to a marmoset MHC pangenome that will include wild common and black tufted marmosets. The annotations are in prep for publication.
