Sethuraman hosted two sessions on the use of model-based population genomics software/pipelines at the Conservation Genomics 2017 Workshop, an annual workshop hosted by Brian Hand and Gordon Luikart and colleagues at the Flathead Lake Biological Station, University of Montana.

Yumary and Hannah presented their summer research (graciously funded by CSUSM's Summer Scholars program, and a GPSM grant from CSUSM's Office of Graduate Studies and Research to Arun Sethuraman) at the Summer Scholars' Showcase on Wednesday, 8/9/2017. They will also present this poster at the 2nd Annual CSU Symposium at UCLA on 8/14/2017 (Monday). Kudos to their hard work all summer, and continued work on this project! Sethuraman and Hey, in collaboration with TUTeach hosted a workshop on genomics and bioinformatics for high school teachers and teachers in training the week of June 26th - 30th, 2017. Teachers and trainees were paired up and introduced to the field of genomic sequence analyses and how they can incorporate bioinformatics (through introductory Python coding) in their classrooms. Watch this space for all the amazing lesson plans that were developed during this week-long session!
We are so proud of our newest graduates, Katie, Melissa, Michael, Shiori, and James! Congratulations on your graduation! Here are a few neat pictures from graduation last weekend. We wish you the best in all your future endeavors. Our new manuscript on the demographic histories of three species of predatory lady beetles across the United States is now out in Insect Science. Special congrats to our lab members, Yumary and Michael on their first publication! Read the paper ahead of print here.
The Sethuraman Lab welcomes two new graduate students, Bryce Summerhays and Melissa Lynch this Fall! Our new manuscript describing the recent evolutionary history of three species of predatory coccinellids used in biological control (Hippodamia convergens, Coccinella septempunctata, Harmonia axyridis) across North American populations has now been accepted to Insect Science! Watch this space for links to the full manuscript in the coming weeks!
Our new manuscript on over-wintering behavior and nesting phenology of Western painted turtles (Chrysemys picta) has now been published in Evolutionary Ecology Research. Thanks to Dr. Tim Mitchell for putting this together after all these years! You can read the paper here.
Melissa was recently selected among a diverse group of 120 applicants to attend the EMBO's Population Genomics workshop in Napoli, Italy. Congrats to Melissa, and we hope that this will be an excellent opportunity for her as she forays into graduate studies in the Sethuraman Lab! More information about the workshop can be accessed here.
