We have our first paper from the Buffalo laboratory published at Molecular Biology and Evolution (link here, it is Open Access). The paper describes polymorphic human deletions that are shared with Neandertals or Denisovans. Most of these
We recently published a 16 high-quality genomes of unrelated Turkish individuals. It is not enough, yet, to really decipher what is going on in the complex geography of Anatolia. But, it is, I think, a

Omer recently got a story published in the popular Turkish Science online magazine ‘Açık Bilim‘. It is mostly a popular retelling of this paper. If you read Turkish, enjoy. 🙂

T24’de genetik çeşitlilik üzerine bir söyleşi yaptık Hazal Özvarış ile. Biraz dallanıp budaklansa da, sanıyorum bazı ana temaları isabetli bir şekilde sunabildik. Söyleşiye buradan ulaşabilirsiniz. Bu vesile ile Ekşi Sözlük’te yerimi almış oldum. 🙂

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
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
