Robust and scalable inference of population history from hundreds of unphased whole genomes

J Terhorst, JA Kamm, YS Song - Nature genetics, 2017 - nature.com
It has recently been demonstrated that inference methods based on genealogical processes
with recombination can uncover past population history in unprecedented detail. However, …

Socially responsible investments: Institutional aspects, performance, and investor behavior

L Renneboog, J Ter Horst, C Zhang - Journal of banking & finance, 2008 - Elsevier
This paper provides a critical review of the literature on socially responsible investments (SRI).
Particular to SRI is that both financial goals and social objectives are pursued. Over the …

Whole-genome sequencing reveals a complex African population demographic history and signatures of local adaptation

…, J Terhorst, MH Beltrame, A Ranciaro, J Hirbo… - Cell, 2023 - cell.com
We conduct high coverage (>30×) whole-genome sequencing of 180 individuals from 12
indigenous African populations. We identify millions of unreported variants, many predicted to …

Measuring induction times and crystal nucleation rates

C Brandel, JH ter Horst - Faraday discussions, 2015 - pubs.rsc.org
… where N(t) = JVt J is the average number of nuclei formed in the timeframe t J with the
rate J and within a volume V. The probability P*(t) that one or more nuclei are formed is then: …

Efficiently inferring the demographic history of many populations with allele count data

J Kamm, J Terhorst, R Durbin… - Journal of the American …, 2020 - Taylor & Francis
