Our study on the genomic impact of whaling and isolation is out today! Thanks a lot to @SergioNigenda for welcoming me into the world of whales 🐳 It's been a fun journey of discoveries. Check out the 🧵below for more details 🎉🎉.
I am glad to share our paper published today in @NatureComms assessing the impact of whaling and isolation on the genetic diversity of fin whale populations. We did a genomic and simulation analysis of 50 fin whale genomes.

From applying ecological theories in evolution studies to using genetic methods for ecological questions, from species to communities, from microbes to plants and animals, really the sky is our limit!.

For the Symposium No.1 “Combining Ecology and Evolutionary Knowledge for Conservation”. It’s exciting to learn about all the ongoing work and discussions of eco-evolutionary conservation:.

Had a blast at #ESA2023. Thanks a lot to our amazing speakers Dr. Amy Angert @rangelimits Dr. Michael Buchalski and Dr. Andrew Gonzalez @bio_diverse, co-organizers @leg2015 @MExpositoAlonso, student volunteer Katherine, and every participant finding the mysterious room 258.
Hey #ESA2023 be sure to head over to room 258 in 30 minutes to catch our session led by @MeixiLin and hear her talk about how we can use biodiversity theory and genomics to better understand the genetic extinction vortex!

Very excited and honored to share that I am now a @SmithFellow. I will be working with a dream team of mentors @MExpositoAlonso and field mentors at @Revive_Restore and #UNBiodiversityLab to develop macro-ecological models of global genetic diversity!.
We are thrilled to announce the 2023 Class of @SmithFellows! Congratulations to Kendall Calhoun, Amber Datta, Caroline Kisielinski, Meixi Lin, and Vaughn Shirey!

I am still very sad but I will always be grateful having Bob as my mentor. He welcomed me into the world of conservation genomics and would always encourage you to ask the bigger and more exciting questions. He will be missed.
I am deeply sorry to tell you that my UCLA colleague Bob Wayne passed away yesterday after an extended battle with cancer. Bob was a pioneer at using genomic methods to study demography and selection in populations of conservation concern. 1/5.

The current effective size is around 50 and demographic trajectories revealed genetic footprints of a sustained small population. Overall it's a fascinating example on establishment success from limited founders in nature!.

The first project I helped out on is now out! Led by Shan Zhang and Meng Yao, we analyzed the genetic structure of a small oriental fire-bellied toad population, descendants from a single translocation of ~200 individuals 100 years ago.
