CNVkit v0.9.10 is out!
github.com/etal/cnvkit/re…
New plotting features, better GISTIC support, and many bug fixes and infrastructure improvements. Much thanks to contributors over the past ~2 years.

If you could read the DNA of half a million people, would you do it and why? Would it work? What would you learn?
To answer this and several related questions, let me walk you through the work my @RegeneronDNA colleagues just published in Nature. 1/24

If you're interested in trying @nf_core in the context of reproducible peer review I am looking for a participant for a short survey and a test of robustness on disputed m6a paper. $250 recompense. Please DM me for details.

@rlim_Hsapiens @biocrusoe Not personally, but I understand it's basically an extension of Parquet and will work in the same scenarios, plus a few more.

@jermdemo Thanks! This is what I was thinking of, nicely integrated with workflows.

@etalevich github.com/gogetdata and frictionlessdata.io implement this type of data as code in a more language-agnostic fashion

@dpryan79 Thanks. This would be for derived or accruing datasets that downstream pipelines then depend on, e.g. I've validated a pipeline with RefGene from <date>, and want to pin all its dependencies in code. The data itself doesn't even need to be copied, necessarily.

@etalevich Conda has versions of the Bioconductor experimental dataset packages, so technically yes. However I think you're better off with something like a zenodo DOI for datasets, unless they really require association with non-dataset objects. The thing is most datasets aren't updated.

You can now link reviews from the preprint on biorxiv.
Another step towards a journal-free open science utopia with preprint and post publication peer review. :D

Smartly spotted by @PracheeAC -a new @biorxivpreprint feature from our tech wizards Ted and Michael. Links to a list of peer reviewed preprints can be found on each subject category specific page. Featuring reviews from @eLife, @ReviewCommons, and @EMBOPress

I'm hiring for the Data Core at @KariusInc!
jobs.lever.co/kariusdx/7b209…
We mine biological datasets to power a cfDNA test for infectious diseases. We discover new things every day.
HQ is in the Bay Area; remote is also fine.

Incredibly cool and important work/job that I’ll share with my maths/science friends. 🙏🏼

The Karius test works for clinical diagnosis of infectious diseases: kariusdx.com/products/kariu…
What's next? We'll go beyond n-of-1, improve the assay itself and its clinical validity, use the assay to make discoveries, and much more.

TODAY @ 3PM ET: Join @mlipsitch and other experts for The Science of Herd Immunity.
They will explain the science of and misconceptions around herd immunity and discuss new research frontiers in immunology, infectious disease dynamics, and human behavior. stanford.io/3cYX2IZ
English

I'm now at @KariusInc !
We have a lifesaving noninvasive test for infectious diseases, and from another perspective, a metagenomic cfDNA assay that works as a powerful new molecular microscope for understanding human physiology.

We did it again! Now you can deploy your Nextflow pipelines to DNAnexus cloud platform! 🎉🎉
Evan Floden@EvanFloden
We are very excited to offer Nextflow users a new execution platform for their pipelines! This partnership gives users the scale of Nextflow in the secure @dnanexus cloud environment. Read more: seqera.io/blog/dnanexus-…
