Post-doc Research at the Highlander Lab Image I am a Postdoctoral Research Fellow working on the Born2Guide project, where we will develop a Whole-Genome Sequencing (WGS) strategy and framework for routine implementation and downstream genomic selection of guide dogs. Goals: Obtain whole-genome sequences for breeding dogs; Develop sequencing and imputation strategies for the rest of the population; Produce method pipelines for routine genomic data collection and analysis. Background have a PhD from the Centre of Genetic Improvement of Livestock at the University of Guelph. I focused on novel approaches to improve the selection of fertility and reproduction in dairy cattle. I am specifically interested in: Animal breeding Genomics Novel traits Programming language and software: R & RStudio F90 family software Python Hobbies and personal interests Cooking and baking Reading Yoga and pilates Canyoning Kayaking Relevant links GitHub Twitter ORCID LinkedIn This article was published on 2024-09-02
