About Andrew Roger

Andrew Roger, With an exceptional h-index of 76 and a recent h-index of 43 (since 2020), a distinguished researcher at Dalhousie University, specializes in the field of molecular evolution, early eukaryote evolution, protist genomics, bioinformatics, protein evolution.

His recent articles reflect a diverse array of research interests and contributions to the field:

Meteora sporadica, a protist with incredible cell architecture, is related to Hemimastigophora

GTRpmix: A linked general-time reversible model for profile mixture models

Characterisation of Skoliomonas gen. nov., a haloalkaliphilic anaerobe related to barthelonids (Metamonada).

Expanded phylogeny of extremely halophilic archaea shows multiple independent adaptations to hypersaline environments

A unique symbiosome in an anaerobic single-celled eukaryote

Comparative analysis of mitochondrion-related organelles in anaerobic amoebozoans

Draft genomes of Blastocystis subtypes from human samples of Colombia

Is Over-parameterization a Problem for Profile Mixture Models?
