- Wrapping up our annual joint lab meeting with a visit to the Grant Museum of Zoology at UCL was such a highlight! Always inspiring to reconnect with longtime colleagues, new team members, and collaborators💫
- We have had a great time at the Workshop on Computational Genomics at Beijing Normal University! Thank you to all organisers, course assistants, and the fantastic and hard-working participants for making this event possible! 下次见, 谢谢 🌹(1/2)
- And some more pictures from the workshop! (2/2) Thanks to lab members @sabifo4.bsky.social , Tomas Flouri, and Yuttapong Thawornwattana!

- Reposted by Ziheng Yang LabJi, Kapli, Flouri & @zihengyang.bsky.social assess the impact of genotyping errors in phylogenomic data on Bayesian inference of species trees, suggesting that it is better to sequence a few samples at high depths over many samples at low depths. 🔗 doi.org/10.1093/molbev/msaf184 #evobio #molbio
- Reposted by Ziheng Yang LabIn the first Plenary speech of #SMBE2025, Ziheng Yang (@zihengyang.bsky.social) taught us quite a few improbable things on gene flow. We wish you a delicious breakfast for tomorrow, while mulling over these lessons... 😉
- Reposted by Ziheng Yang LabUsing simulations and empirical data, Thawornwattana, Flouri, @wtf-r-species.bsky.social & @zihengyang.bsky.social et al. evaluate the performance of the MSC-M model for inferring gene flow. 🔗 doi.org/10.1093/molbev/msaf121 #evobio #molbio #geneflow

- What a busy (but sunny) May in Crete!🔆 Ziheng & @sabifo4.bsky.social enjoyed teaching and meeting the participants at the Computational Molecular Evolution course! Ziheng then joined the satellite workshop on Biodiversity Genomics 🌍🧬 Thanks to everyone who made these fantastic meetings possible!!
- And... Some more pictures from the social activities! There was even time to enjoy the beach during lunch breaks and group singing at an evening karaoke session! 🎤🏖️
- Congratulations Dr Jiayi Ji!! 🥳Thanks to examiners @hernanaburbano.bsky.social and Simon Martin, now time to enjoy the long weekend! 🎉

- The 2nd day of the SystAssn-SRUK/CERU Bayesian Phylogenetics Workshop was focused on the Multispecies Coalescent Theory and the usage of BPP, led by our lab members Tomas Flouri and Yuttapong Thawornwattana! 💻🧬
- The SystAssn-SRUK/CERU Bayesian Phylogenetics Workshop started yesterday! During the 1st day, our lab members Tomas Flouri, @anaserrasilva.bsky.social, and @sabifo4.bsky.social had fun sharing their knowledge on Bayesian statistics, phylogeny inference & timetree inference with the participants💻🧬
- Our Workshop on Genomics at Sun Yat-sen University Institute of Advanced Studies Hong Kong has come to an end! We are grateful to all organisers and very pleased to have meet such fantastic and hard-working participants! 下次见, 谢谢 🌹(1/2)
- And some more pictures! Thanks to lab members @sabifo4.bsky.social , Tomas, and Yuttapong too! (2/2)
- Our lab members @sabifo4.bsky.social, @anaserrasilva.bsky.social, Tomas Flouri, and Yuttapong Thawornwattana are teaching a two-day workshop on Bayesian Phylogenetics Workshop 💻🧬 Pre-register your interest to join this event before March 14th, do not miss the deadline! More details below 🔽
