Exciting news for the AGC—our first paper is now published in BMC Genomics! Check it out here: link.springer.com/article/10.118…

The Canadian research funding agencies are currently re-evaluating their policy on #OpenAccess publishing. I wrote this policy memo on this topic, which was just published in @SciPolJournal! Check it out here: buff.ly/40ms8TT

Don't forget that the deadlines for Abstracts for Oral Presentations, Travel Grants, and The Conservation Hero nominations are today for our 2025 annual meeting . We will also be posting the registration and links to lodging later today. We can't wait to see everyone there!

Another point that's very disturbing is when, like me, you're doing variant calling for diagnostic purposes and you don't have access to the source code of variant calling tools. When an error occurs, it's impossible to find the origin of the error if you use closed source tools.

Interested in metabarcoding? Then you should check out this preprint newly recommended on PCI Genomics! Preprint on @biorxivpreprint by Christian Barnabé, Guilhem Sempéré and others: buff.ly/40fOeHu See the great recommendation by @NNpollet here: buff.ly/4eMhZ7j

✅️ La #FDS2024 commence demain à @IdeevL et au village des sciences de @ensparissaclay ! Reservée aux scolaires le 4/10. Public, venez nombreux découvrir nos ateliers, laboratoires, conférences ➡️ Samedi 5 et dimanche 6 octobre ideev.universite-paris-saclay.fr/news/2024/09/l… @UnivParisSaclay

"Chain retraction: how to stop bad science propagating through the literature" @gcabanac in @Nature about @PubPeer and Problematic Paper Screener. It is worth reading! nature.com/articles/d4158…

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Dr. Joseph Gall, a pioneering figure in modern cell biology, at the age of 96. Dr. Gall, often called the “Father of Modern Cell Biology.” carnegiescience.edu/news/joseph-ga… #science #biology #cellbiology #xenopus #frogs

LukProt is a new eukaryotic genomics resources, aimed at investigating animal origins by author @glycolukasz: buff.ly/4fALc5O Just recommended in PCI Genomics: by @fonamental: buff.ly/3AlwMGx Thanks to the recommender and reviewers for evaluating this preprint!

I'm so excited to get to introduce the AGC today at our first ever symposium at the World Congress of Herpetology #WCH10.

Work by @rita_rebollo and colleagues on quantifying transposable element expression in fruit flies was just recommended by @NNpollet in PCI Genomics! The preprint: buff.ly/4dyyHpH The recommendation: buff.ly/3SChC64 See below for more details.

@rita_rebollo @NNpollet In their newly recommended preprint, @rita_rebollo et al. show that transposable element expression in fruit flies can be more accurately captured with @nanopore long-read sequencing: buff.ly/4dyyHpH

@rita_rebollo @NNpollet Transposable elements are difficult to study in eukaryotic genomes due to their highly repetitive nature, which is particularly a challenge for short-read sequencing data.
