Check out our new preprint! We compare sequence versus synteny approaches for resolving a challenging #phylogenetic problem. In this case, synteny is far more informative! Also includes the first chromosome-level #genome for the enigmatic #fish family Gyrinocheilidae. doi.org/10.1101/2025...

First day on the job as a NOAA Fisheries Research Biologist, stationed at the National Systematics Lab in the Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History. I'll be developing and streamlining bioinformatics workflows, as well as leading and supporting research on systematics, evolution, and more!
