AT THE CONVERGENCE OF EVOLUTION AND GENETICS
About evolgen
We talk about molecular population and evolutionary GENETICS and GENOMICS. You know, the caliper measurement of a gene's evolvability in moles.
Eschewing obfuscation ever since Morgan.

Genomics:
Evidence that Men Think With Their Junk
Us dudes are always accused of thinking with our dicks. Perhaps it's because the genes expressed in our brains are similar to those expressed in our 'nads: Among the 17 tissues, the highest similarity in gene expression patterns was between...Posted on April 8, 2008 3:00 PM • 3 Comments
This is the Future of Eukaryotic Genome Sequencing
As I have mentioned before, de novo sequencing of whole eukaryotic genomes may be a thing of the past (or, at least, these whole genome projects won't be getting very much more common). Instead, I proposed that people would use...Posted on March 31, 2008 2:00 PM • 1 Comments

Are Transcription Factors Enriched in Every Dataset?
Is it just me or does every analysis that looks for over-represented gene ontology (GO) terms turn up transcription factors? It doesn't matter if the study is looking for genes under positive selection or something else. It just seems like...Posted on November 13, 2007 6:00 PM • 8 Comments
