Enrichment of hard sweeps on the X chromosome of Drosophila melanogaster
Recently Mariana Harris and Nandita Garud posted a preprint on hard and soft sweeps on the X versus autosome of D. melanogaster! Here is the abstract! The characteristic properties […]
Microbiome source tracking using single nucleotide variants
Recently Leah Briscoe, Eran, Halperin, and Nandita Garud posted a preprint to bioRxiv on source tracking in the microbiome with single nucleotide variants. In short, remember when this happened? We […]
Community diversity is associated with intra-species genetic diversity and gene loss in the human gut microbiome
We are thrilled to share our latest preprint, Community diversity is associated with intra-species genetic diversity and gene loss in the human gut microbiome. This was a fun collaboration with […]
Evaluating supervised and unsupervised background noise correction in human gut microbiome data
We are thrilled to share that our paper on Evaluating supervised and unsupervised background noise correction in human gut microbiome data is finally out in PLoS Comp Bio! In this paper, […]
Microbial Evolution: An overlooked biomarker of host diet
Nandita recently had the pleasure of writing a persective on a recent paper by Dapa et al. on the evolutionary dynamics of gut microbiota in response to diet. Dapa et al’s […]
Welcome Michael Wasney!
We are thrilled to welcome Michael Wasney to our group for his rotation this quarter! Michael is a recent graduate from the University of Chicago and is a first year […]
Nandita speaks at the ISB symposium
This October, Nandita spoke at the ISB virtual microbiome symposium featuring talks from the field on evolution in commensal gut bacteria on short and long time scales. A link to […]
Ecological stability emerges at the level of strains in the human gut microbiome
We are very excited to share our latest manuscript entitled Ecological stability emerges at the level of strains in the human gut microbiome. To date, there has been an intensive […]
Rapid evolution and strain turnover in the infant gut microbiome
We are pleased to share our latest manuscript on Rapid evolution and strain turnover in the infant gut microbiome. In this paper, we quantify differences in the tempo and mode […]
