Sunday I run the @royalparkshalf.bsky.social half marathon in a gorgeous sunny London and raised 359£ for the @goshcharity.bsky.social ! The GOSH children hospital is an incredibly precious reality I discovered and collaborated with the past year that want to end children illnesses. Go Team GOSH!

Having run races in different cities, I believe that the support you get in London is simply unbeatable! This gave me the extra push to establish my PB at 2:04 ✨ a shout out to my colleague @murraybeno.bsky.social who raised almost 1k for @mind.org.uk : you’re a star!!!

Our seminars have relaunched, starting with a great talk from @mattiassherman.bsky.social: Joint dog and wolf genealogies reveal the evolution of the canine genome. He described how mutation-rate variation, gene conversion, selection, & inter-species gene flow have jointly shaped the dog genome 🐕🧬
