Dan Garrigan just signed on to lead this Fall’s EEB Journal Club and intends to focus discussion recent population genomics literature.  The list of topics is still in development, but now might be a good time for students intending to enroll in JC to get familiar with some of Dan’s most recent contributions:

Garrigan, D., R. Lewontin and J. Wakeley (2010) Measuring the Sensitivity of Single-Locus “Neutrality Tests” Using a Direct Perturbation Approach. Molecular Biology and Evolution [doi link]
