A nice work, I think.

From experience, using whatshap to build small blocks then phasing with those as priors usually seems to work well. + sanity check with phase-insensitive methods like SMC++

Wondering whether there is work about the role of polymorphic, possibly long indels in explaining Lewontin's paradox? Wouldn't one expect reduction in Ne proportional to the frequency of the deletion? Possibly in combination with interference process?

My first first author manuscript has posted! I’m very excited to share SWIF-TE with yall. It is a fast, memory efficient tool to identify novel TE insertions from short-read data. 🧬 #TEworldwide #transposons

A couple of things:
I have a new website: yannbourgeois.github.io
The url www.methodspopgen.com now redirects to a dedicated methods section on the new website. As a complement, note that we have developed Physalia workshops that may be useful to newcomers in the field: github.com/PhysaliaIntr...

I just concluded two weeks of very productive work with my Argentinian colleagues at CEPAVE in La Plata. Thanks to them all! Great to see that people remain highly motivated to do science, despite the government de-funding, and expecting interesting results! Project with @cbgpmontpellier.bsky.social
