I'm at #PAG30 in San Diego! Speaking about limb reduction in #reptiles in #Genomics of Non-Classical Model Animals. 10:55am Sun. Jan. 15 in Pacific E. Thanks to Marc Tollis 4 organizing & invitation! Looking forward to seeing friends and meeting new people! DM if you would like to meet up! #MuseumGenomics

Have you ever wanted to test for accelerated substitution rates while accounting for #phylogenetic discordance? #PhyloAcc-GT can do that! Great to work with Han Yan, Zhirui Hu, Scott Edwards, @timsackton, and Jun Liu!

Our new software is out!

"Here, we present a new software package (CAGEE) for inferring patterns of increases and decreases in gene expression across a phylogenetic tree, as well as the rate at which these changes occur. In contrast to previous methods that treat each gene independently, CAGEE can calculate genome-wide rates of gene expression, along with ancestral states for each gene."
