Munch Research Group

We model and analyze patterns of genetic diversity across populations of humans and other primates — with a special focus on sex chromosome evolution.

Exploring how intragenomic conflicts in spermatogenesis shape the genetic basis of autism spectrum disorders.

Investigating how meiotic drive fuels reproductive barriers between diverging populations of primates.

Developing graph-based phase-type distributions for computing population genetic quantities.

Applications and libraries for computation, analysis and visualization. All MIT licensed and available as conda packages.

Trust, transparency, sharing and collaboration. We share our progress and ideas openly.
