What can you find on these sites?

  • GitHub: A

    s a computational biologist, GitHub is the most important account I hold! If you want to learn more about the software and tools that I have developed or I am working on, please have a look at my repositories!

  • X/Twitter, Bluesky, and Mastodon: I use these sites to catch up with news in my research field. I usually post about personal or other colleague's research updates or repost news about workshops, courses, conferences, or job/grad/postgrad positions being advertised.

  • Google Scholar: If you want to learn more about the research articles I have contributed to, please have a look at my Google Scholar!

Bayesian Sequential-Subtree (BSS) approach

Method to infer a species-level evolutionary timeline with phylogenomic data.

MORPH-BM approach

Method to infer a timetree with morphological continuous data while accounting for population noise and trait correlation.

MolClockDat

Tutorial and semi-automated pipeline for timetree inference with MCMCtree.

fasta-phylip-partitions

Tool that converts FASTA alignments into PHYLIP format while partitioning the alignment according to a codon-position scheme if enabled by the user.

VSpipe
