It's today! Dec 11th Finding endogenous viral elements in genomic data 🧑‍💻 by Sebastian @S_Lequime Time: 2pm EST🇺🇸 / 8pm CET 🇪🇺 / 4am JST 🇯🇵 Join Join @RdRp_Summit RNA Virus Journal Club: oregonstate.zoom.us/j/91641019185?… #rdrpsummit onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/17…

Forcing people back to the office backfires. Data on >3M tech & finance workers: After return-to-office mandates, firms lose stars and struggle to attract new talent. The most likely to quit are senior, skilled, & female employees. Flexibility is a feature of a great workplace.

I don't know if there is anyone who doesn't know what Logan project is, but if you don't: treat yourself with this thread 🧵 and most importantly updated preprint! Brilliant and exciting work by @RayanChikhi et al 🔥🤩

@DuckSwabber Yeah, exactly, just why. It's not even "systematic" change as IAV etc can still work 🙈

Well, thats the end of IAV, IBV, ICV and IDV... the influenzas have all new abbreviations now. Thanks ICTV microbiologyresearch.org/content/journa…

Guess who is invited as the keynote speaker for the session on "Data Mining & Metadata Analysis"??? It is Rayan Chikhi!!! He will introduce us to Logan. You can read the preprint here: tinyurl.com/vx4cykr7 Registrations are still open for #RdRpSummit2025!

EXCITING NEWS🥳! @ISME_microbes is now sponsoring 3 travels grants worth EUR 500 each to support early career researchers presenting at the #RdRpSummit2025. Abstract submissions & registrations are still open!✍️ More info at RdRp.io

The second RdRp Summit will take place at Instituto de Higiene e Medicina Tropical (IHMT NOVA) in Lisbon Portugal on 11th & 12th May 2025! Abstract and registration details coming this week! #RdRpSummit2025 #ViBioM2025

Sharing this feels vulnerable but meaningful. 💛 In this piece for @Nature, I reflect on having 3 children during my PhD - why I’d do it all over again, but also why academia shouldn’t make it this hard for parents to thrive.🍼🎓@Momademia 🔗nature.com/articles/d4158…

🚨PLZ-RT👇Job Post: Assistant Prof. 🧬#MolecularGenetics🦠University of Toronto 🇨🇦 Gain the freedom to build your dream research program! MoGen is a supportive community to make it so #Genetics #Genomics #Virology #Microbiology #Yeast #Eukaryote 🔗: uoft.me/MoGenHire

I'm opening the doors to my very own microbial genomics research lab at @BCMFromtheLabs in Houston, TX. I'm looking for talented biologists to join me on this journey through sequence space. Featuring: - Wastewater and human virome - Phages, all of them - Microbial epigenomes

If you like this kind of work we have a funded PhD place in the lab starting in Oct 2025 to explore antiviral innate immune responses across species. See here for details of how to apply or ask me for more info: bbsrcdtp.lifesci.cam.ac.uk/available-targ…

@XinHou149764 Congratulations! Glad to see it fully published! 👏🏼

😎🗣️So exited to share my Cell paper - using AI model to unveal hidden RNA virosphere across global!! Today's Nobel Prize in Chemistry was awarded to protein design and AlphaFold, highlighting the importance of this pathbreaking research!! See more here: cell.com/cell/fulltext/…

We're in the midst of a Computational revolution in biology, comparable to the Molecular revolution of the 70s. Baker, @demishassabis , and Jumper receiving the Nobel Prize not only recognizes their achievement, it's a coming of age for #bioinformatics. 🥳🎉

@LeoTZ03 @Zuricho_zbzt Also check an amazing "Biomatter" start-up

If you're looking for labs working on Protein Design, we've put together a list based on our best knowledge. The initial list came from @Zuricho_zbzt, and with a bit of help from me, we've now got it up on GitHub. Feel free to suggest any labs we might have missed! github.com/Zuricho/Protei…

If you work with metagenomes (or metatranscriptomes), would like to explore what viruses/phages are in your datasets, but don't know where to start, we have (an) MVP for you now \o/ Really happy to see this one published, and also welcoming feedback/suggestion of improvement!

Thanks to everyone in @FirthLab especially Andrew Firth, also @Ingridole for helpful chats! I had fun working on this one! @CamPathology @campathpostdocs @EVirusBioinfC #bioinformatics #rnavirus

I have a new preprint! Uncovering hundreds of exogenous and endogenous RNA viral RdRp sequences amongst uncharacterised sequences in public protein databases biorxiv.org/content/10.110… 🧵1/6
