Join us for a webinar, focusing on licensing within bioinformatics. In this session, we will review licensing for both software and data in bioinformatics research. We will provide guidance on understanding different types of licenses, their implications, and best practices for selecting and applying them appropriately. Whether you're a researcher, bioinformatician, developer, or data steward, this webinar will equip you with the knowledge and tools necessary to navigate the complex landscape of licensing in bioinformatics effectively.
Join us on a journey into the nuances of the fish immune system and their implication for health management in aquaculture.

A Pilot Feasibility Study of Opioid Withdrawal in Patients with Chronic Back Pain
The evolution of commensalism in Passer sparrows
Human activity has altered the evolutionary trajectories and ecological circumstances of nearly every species on Earth. What can this tell us about the processes of adaptation and speciation? Can we take advantage of the human impacts on species as means to study evolution and its intersection with ecology? This is the driving aim of my research group, where we use Passer sparrows as a model system. We are focusing on a number of topics including understanding the evolutionary causes and consequences of human-commensalism, repeated adaptation to environmental changes in introduced populations and convergent adaptation to human environments across all bird species. We do this using a multidisciplinary approach including genomics, phylogenetics and ecological analyses.
