We are now affliated iwth the Program in Evolution, Ecology and Behavior (EEB) in University at Buffalo. This may be a good opportunity for graduate students and visiting scientists interested in evolutionary/anthropological genomics to interact with […]

We have a new paper regarding variation of retrotransposed genes among healthy individuals: In primates and other animals reverse transcription of mRNA followed by genomic integration creates retroduplications. Expressed retroduplications are either ‘retrogenes’ coding for

Our efforts to resequence and analyze primate genomes with a focus on genomic structural variation has now been published. Here is the link for the paper and here is the link for the curated datasets. The
This paper describing a nice evolutionary story about interaction between HIV and the host immune system, is mostly the effort of our collaborators in Mount Sinai. You can find the abstract below and here is
Finally, our manuscript entitled “Balancing selection on a Regulatory Region Exhibiting Ancient Variation That Predates Human–Neandertal Divergence” was published in PLoS Genetics. You can find it here… It is Open Access. Also, link to the post
I am giving a talk tomorrow at AAPAs that touches on the impact of genomic structural variation on the phenotypic diversity within and between primate species. For more details: Link
