Love science. Senior Editor @Nature, previously @NatureComms. If it's not science, I'll probably be in the gym or the kitchen (also science). All views my own.
Come meet the editors of Nature (Michelle Trenkmann), Nature Genetics (Tiago Faial), Nature Communications
(Margot Brandt) and Nature Reviews Genetics (Linda Koch) on Thursday from 12:00-1:15PM (Room 601 in the Convention Center)! #ASHG24#ASHG2024
Interested in a career as an editor? we are hiring! Associate or Senior Editor, Nature Communications (Biochemistry, Molecular Biology or Genetics) g.co/kgs/6rqnTu
Today we publish 1st @HumanPangenome Reference Consortium primary research paper @Nature. Highlights: Near #T2T complete & error-free diploid human genome; phasing haplotypes in assembly graph is best; 50% of total genetic variation is in the centromeres

Most recent work from the lab just out @Nature. By combining ancient DNA work, population genomics, and in vitro infections we show that the Black Death shaped the evolution of immune genes. Kuddos to co-first authors @TaurVil and Jennifer Klunk. nature.com/articles/s41586-0…
We have some awesome genomics papers online @nature - a first step towards a more representative human reference genome, an ancient DNA study on the social organization of a Neanderthal community and an ancient DNA study on the evolution of immune genes during the Black Death
The analysis of ancient DNA from individuals who lived before, during and after the Black Death pandemic gives clues to how exposure to pathogens may have shaped the make-up of immune genes
