#BREADR
🧬 Estimating genetic relatedness from low-coverage data just got easier.
Meet BREADR, an #RStats package for Bayesian kinship estimation using mismatch rates.
Ideal for population genetics & ancient DNA work

Long after we first had the idea, BREADR has just been published in the Journal of Open Source Software (@joss-openjournals.bsky.social).

A huge thanks to Jono Tuke, Divy Popli and Wolfgang Haak for the support.

Well, I had a blast! Thanks to ACAD for hosting me. And cheers to @dnatimetravel.bsky.social for the help and the morning tea.

I'm giving a workshop this week on using our (low-coverage) genetic kinship estimator, BREADR, and was thinking about format. Out of interest, do you prefer:

1. An entry-level explanation of the theory.
2. Interactive demo with example data.
3. Help working on your data.
4. All of the above?

Sign up for my new app BREADR, I will buy all of the bread and then for $20 a month I will send you two loaves of bread a week.
