Dear colleagues,

I am a postdoc researcher and the producer of the podcast for the Genetics
Society journal Heredity - each month I speak to the authors of a new
Heredity paper and we discuss their work at a roughly undergraduate level.

As many of you will be involved in teaching evolution, I wanted to
highlight the podcast as a teaching / supporting resource for courses
such as population genetics, molecular ecology and conservation genetics.

For example, a recent episode featured pop-gen heavy-hitter Robin
Waples giving a beautifully clear explanation of the concept
of effective population size and its importance to evolutionary
questions. https://shorturl.at/btwDT

If appropriate, please recommend the podcast to your students. It’s
available on the Heredity website (https://www.nature.com/hdy/podcast)
and all the usual podcast places - Apple podcasts, Spotify, etc.

Any questions or queries, you can contact me at
hereditypodcast.gen@gmail.com

Very best wishes,
Mike Pointer
