Benjamin Demaille is joining the lab to work on dimension reduction, imputation, visualization of paleogenomic data. This will be a follow-up and extension of Séverine Liegeois master work.

I'm helping organizing the

Institut Pascal Research Program "Ecosystem dynamics : state, data and models" 

17 June – 12 July 2019

coordinators: Stéphane Dupas, Camille Coron, Arnaud Becheler and Adelaïde Olivier

It consists in 3 weeks of Research (seminars and working groups) and 1 of Summer School. Contact us if you are interested and want to know more.

Congratulations to Séverine Liegeois who just got the prize for best poster at the Paris-Saclay Junior Conference on Data Science and Engineering 2018 for her work on Dimension Reduction Adapted to Paleogenomics !
This work is done in collaboration Olivier François, TIMC-IMAG

I'm happy to say that Théophile Sanchez presented his work on End-to-End Deep Learning Approach for Demographic History Inference in
- a talk at MCEB conference,  Mathematical and Computational Evolutionary Biology, Montpellier, France, June 2018
- a talk at Paris-Saclay Junior Conference on Data Science and Engineering, Orsay, France, Sept. 2017 HAL reference 
- a poster at Human Evolution: Fossils, Ancient and Modern Genomes conference, Cambridge, UK, Nov. 2017
This work is done in collaboration with Guillaume Charpiat, LRI

Agnès Barnabé joined the lab for a Master 1 internship, mentored by Jean Cury and myself. She is developing a pipeline for the Demographic inference of bacterial populations using the software BEAST and testing it on Jean's simulated genomic datasets.

Séverine Liegeois is currently doing a M2 internship on the visualization of modern and ancient DNA data through PCA or related techniques.

Jean Cury started a postdoc in January. He will work on the inference of demography and selection for bacterial populations using machine learning and deep learning techniques. This project is a collaboration with Philippe Glaser (Insitut Pasteur), Guillaume Achaz (MNHN) and Eduardo Rocha (Institut Pasteur) and is funded by DIM-1Health.
