#genomic

My day job is all about #genes, so I applaud the #genomic revolution in #paleontology and #evolutionary #biology. But #evolution really is more than a shift in #allele frequencies over time. It's also change in the #phenotypes those alleles produce, and their #interaction with the world around them. 🧪🖥🧬🦖

So I'm equally excited about the #quantitative revolution in describing and cataloguing #traits which until recently could only be analyzed #qualitatively. There's a whole new window opening into the history of life.

#Ontario, Canada peeps or anyone have insight into why there was a sudden stop of uploading Ontario COVID #genomic sequence data to #GISAID? Last sequences dated Feb. 12, 2025 and nothing since. There was still 57-83 sequences a day being uploaded before that.

Now only a small # of sequences coming from NB & Quebec and periodically a few from AB, BC, and NS for all of Canada. You can see the big drop in Canada sequences when ON stopped submitting so very difficult to track what is going on.🧵1/
