This web page will guide you through the genome assembly and read mapping activities we have planned for you today!
Gregg Thomas: A bioinformatics scientist in the FAS Informatics group at Harvard University and recent postdoc in Jeff Good's lab lab at the University of Montana. Gregg uses and develops computational methods to study molecular evolution and phylogenetics to determine what forces drive divergence and adaptation between species.
Ellie Armstrong: A recent PhD at Stanford University co-advised by Dmitri Petrov and Liz Hadley. Ellie works on conservation genetics of big cats, and published the genome assembly of the lion and will soon be starting a postdoc at Washington State University with Joanna Kelley.
