Congrats @Georgette_F for this best student paper honorable mention 🎉 from @MolBioEvol. As part of her Bachelor work in our group, it was great to work with you! @evohologen @Globe_UCPH #SMBE2024
The honorable mention for the MBE Best Student Paper award this year goes to @Georgette_F for her article, Genetic Load and Adaptive Potential of a Recovered Avian Species that Narrowly Avoided Extinction buff.ly/485dYaP @OfficialSMBE #science #evolution #smbe2024

Georgette is currently finishing her Master’s degree in Human Genetics at McGill University, supervised by @SFGravel, where she is studying the effect of population structure on demographic inference using linkage disequilibrium statistics. Congratulations, Georgette!

The article stemmed from Georgette's bachelor's research project for the National Autonomous University of Mexico and a collaboration with the Gilbert Group at the University of Copenhagen, where she worked under the supervision of @HernMoral buff.ly/485dYaP
I am beyond honored! Thanks to @MolBioEvol for the mention and to @HernMoral for the support over the past years! This recognition goes to him too, he's the mastermind behind this project. It was a pleasure working with him at the now Evolutionary and Conservation Genomics Group!

Happy to share that our research on the genomic impact of Seychelles Paradise Flycatcher's near-extinction is now published in MBE!🧬@OfficialSMBE
This project was part of my undergraduate at @lcgunam, guided by the incredible @HernMoral at @Globe_UCPH

#Preprint 🚨Led by @Georgette_F from her bachelor🤯thesis at @lcgunam. Generated 130+ years old and modern genomes of the Seych paradise flycatcher. Used pop gen, demo rec and fwd simulations to study gen load and adaptive potential over time. Brief 🧵 1/7 shorturl.at/pyV49

🎓Once again huge thanks to @HernMoral who mentored me through the process and whose dedication to this project was out of this world and to all of the incredible people involved in the project. 7/7
We are grateful to the @NHM_London and @ZoologyMuseum for providing historical samples. Also to @NatureSey for the collection of modern samples. @MSCActions,@GrundforskFond,@DefraGovUK and @dgeci for funding.
