    Workshop Overview:
    The Workshop on Phylogenomics consists of a series of lectures, demonstrations and computer laboratories that cover various aspects of phylogenomic analysis. Faculty are chosen exclusively for their effectiveness in teaching theory and practice. The course is designed for established investigators, postdoctoral scholars, and advanced graduate students. The Workshop is designed to provide lectures and extensive hands-on laboratories on modern tools and techniques used for the analysis of phylogenomic data. Lecturers and laboratories will be given by a team of internationally recognized scholars. By the end of the Workshop, participants will be familiar: Lectures and computer laboratories total ~90 hours of scheduled instruction.

    Topics to be covered include:
    - The design and implementation of a full phylogenomic analysis
    - Method selection for phylogenetic inference
    - Estimation of divergence times
    - Detection of selection on genomic scales
    - Manipulate and construct large data matrices
    - The value of using transcriptomic or genomic data for phylogenomic analysis
    - The use of phylogenomics for species tree estimation
    - Detection of horizontal gene transfer

    Co-directors: Toni Gabaldon, Jordi Paps Montserrat, Guy Leonard, and Scott A. Handley

    From Collection to Sequencing: Why Sample Preparation and Preservation Define Sequencing Data
    by SEQadmin2


    Data variability is still an issue in sequencing technologies despite the advances in reproducibility and accuracy of these platforms. But the problem does not originate in the sequencing itself, but in the previous steps, before the sample reaches the sequencer.


    The first step is collection, followed by preservation and sample preparation for analysis. Most scientists overlook those steps, but not being careful might just be skewing the experiment’s results.

    Single-Cell Sequencing at an Inflection Point: Early Impacts of New Platforms and Emerging Trends
    by SEQadmin2


    With the launch of new single-cell sequencing platforms in 2026, the field stands at an exciting inflection point. This article surveys the most impactful advances in the field and discusses how they’re reshaping research in cancer, immunology, and beyond.


    Introduction

    Single-cell sequencing technologies have undergone remarkable advances over the past decade, transitioning from low-throughput experimental approaches to highly scalable platforms capable of...

    Environmental Genomics in the Age of NGS: From Microbes to Conservation Strategies
    by SEQadmin2

    Studying ecosystems means dealing with complex, multi-species communities that are hard to observe at scale. This complexity, however, hides many important questions to be answered, from how biogeochemical cycles work and how climate change can affect species distribution to how conservation strategies can work best.


    Genomics, particularly since the expansion of NGS, has transformed ecosystem ecology. By sequencing environmental DNA, we can now assess biodiversity without direct...
