My first📦R package, labradoR, is now out!
🐕 labradoR simplifies handling and post-processing outputs from the Retriever software, designed for population structure, inbreeding, and kinship analysis.
Check it out here:
github.com/bonifazi/labradoR
#rstats #R #DataScience
New paper out: doi.org/10.1093/g3journal/jk…
A method to predict variance of GEBV in any future generation + a new way to consider this variance in selection.
Together with Jan ten Napel and @mariocalus.

WHOOP WHOOP!🥳the first paper of my PhD just got published. It's an extension of the usefulness criterion by considering variances not only of offspring but also offspring of offspring doi.org/10.1186/s12711-024-0… @tpook92 @YWientjes @mariocalus @Breed4Food #wur_abg

For teaching purposes, I have created two R Shiny apps to replace Excel Tools: 1) Estimating breeding values using BLUP, 2) Single trait selection index. I really enjoyed making these apps. Let me know what you think! #wur_abg

#Animals🐑| Sick animals behave differently from healthy ones. But how can you monitor animals’ behaviour during infectious disease trials without having to keep watch over them around the clock? @HarmenDoekes and his colleagues have found a solution!👉bit.ly/3ZkB9KA

After spending a lot of my PhD trying out different genomic prediction models, I ended up making an R package to make multi-trait, multi-model ensembles. They often outperform the best single base model! Feedback welcome.
