Hybridization and introgression are major evolutionary processes. Since the 1940s, the prevailing view has been that they shape plants far more than animals. In our new study (www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...
), we find the opposite: animals exchange genes more, and for longer, than plants

Really excited to see this work, led by Mike Grundler, published! It's a new method for inferring the geographic locations of shared genetic ancestors. In the paper, we and use it to infer the geographic history of human genetic ancestry

A geographic history of human genetic ancestry
Describing the distribution of genetic variation across individuals is a fundamental goal of population genetics. We present a method that capitalizes on the rich genealogical information encoded in g...

Do you think marine evolution #MarEvol is cool? Maybe you were at the 2018 Marine Evolution meeting in Strömstad, Sweden? And surely you'd like us to do it again and organise MarEvol2? Why not in the South of France? Then fill in this questionnaire and spread the word:

In 2010 (SMBE Lyon) I gave a talk about the impact of GC-biased gene conversion (gBGC) on functional sequence evolution. I argued that, because gBGC promotes G and C alleles irrespective of their fitness effect, it should generate some genetic load. 1/5
