Excited to share our latest work on the impacts of using metagenomics vs viromics on viral community ecology and other applications. This work was led by PhD student @j_kosmopoulos. Please share and we are happy for any feedback. microbiomejournal.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.11…

Providing utilities with reassurance that under the same conditions, drinking water quality will be consistent throughout varying stages of drinking water treatment and distribution. #phdpublished @watermicrobe @fanus_venter @Solize28 @Dot_GLA @EnvSciTech doi.org/10.1021/acsest…

Academic writing is wild bc you’ll read four articles just to write one sentence. Anyway, here’s a thread of resources I’ve been using to speed through this review I’m working on:

Our recent paper, "A Statistical Perspective on the Challenges in Molecular Microbial Biology," is available in arXiv: arxiv.org/abs/2103.04198 (to appear in JABES) A reproducible research appendix of the paper is available at pratheepaj.github.io/diffTop/. @SherlockpHolmes

@quendi Works OK for me except R or R studio. I had to re-install xcode-select for several R packages.

Mac lovers out there in my network... Big Sur yet, or wait longer?

Excited to release metabolisHMM: a phylogenomics tool for profiling MAGs/genomes with curated and custom HMMs w/ @mcmahonlab & @AnantharamanLab Preprint: bit.ly/2s9ttjc Wiki/Demo: bit.ly/36YN30c

@Solize28 @watermicrobe Thanks! 😜

@watermicrobe @Dot_GLA Congrats Dr. @Dot_GLA 🎉🎉

The use of 'mean coverage' data is common in #metagenomics, but contigs w/ identical mean coverages may have distinct stories to tell. A blog post from Emily Fogarty & @TenderIsTheByte on how to visualize coverage data for those who wish to see more: merenlab.org/2019/11/25/vis…

Our latest preprint describing VIBRANT, our new approach to identifying and characterizing viruses and proviruses is out! Get genomes, annotations, metabolic genes and more! Fantastic work by @KrisKieft with @ZhichaoZhou_CHN @AnantharamanLab (1/3) biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

🖋 For the LaTeX aficionados… 📝 "Modifying R Markdown's LaTeX styles" by @travisgerke buff.ly/2QuwXX7 #rmarkdown

looking forward to try it!
