Response strategies to acute and chronic environmental stress in Arctic-breeding Lapland longspurs highlight key adaptive changes, including activation of the HPA axis, regulation of energy, and reproductive functions.

Arctic birds face extreme weather! Our new study reveals how Lapland longspurs cope with extreme weather conditions using genomic approaches. Extreme weather events trigger stress responses, affecting reproduction & metabolism.

Our fresh new preprint is available on biorXiv! Human-mediated gene flow between Eastern and Western pigs is not restricted in one direction. People utilized foreign genetic material as a complement to their local animals, intentianlly or unintentionally 🐷🐷🐷

I am writing a book to help wet biologists to learn computation. Below are some of the chapters I have in mind. What else do you want to know? what problems and frustrations did you have when you started? I will keep them in mind. #rstats #computation #Bioinformatics RT please

Huge congratulations to the new Dr Kuo! Well done Richard @GenomeRIK on a successful viva defence. Well deserved. Under the great supervision of @DavidBurt8 and @AlanArchibald51
Boat ride to Bass Rock this afternoon, and we spotted puffins and seal!

ecoevocommunity.nature.com/p… My take on our recently accepted paper on @NatureComms led together by Fuwen Wei and Wen Wang's groups on muntjac deers with the largest chromosome number variations among mammals. Some muntjacs only have 6 or 7 chromosomes!
