This is the most consciousness-expanding project I've had the pleasure to contribute to: 🧬 We assembled all 27 million sequencing datasets / 44 petabases, and can search it in hours 🤯 🌎🧬 Next goal: SRA-scale BLAST search in sub 60 seconds
Rayan Chikhi@RayanChikhi

Today we’re excited to freely share an early-version of, perhaps, the world’s most expansive genetics dataset: Logan. #bioinformatics #petabase #genetics #genomics #openscience biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

@jbsteinberg If Academia is your job, you're ganna have a bad time. If Academia is a continuation of your learning beyond the known, it's the best profession.

Tenured academia is really not "just a job." - can't be fired. - get a 5-month summer break. - complete flexibility on schedule/wfh - study what interests you -get paid more than enough to live comfortably. It's completely rational to work insanely hard to get this!

What's your best advice for students/postdocs who want to go on to the academic job market in 1-2 years? (crowdsourcing this for a talk I’m giving next week!)

@jbhuang0604 Trust your own instincts, and do what you think is the most important use of your time. Institutions serve scientists, not the other way around.

MetaGraph: A Landmark paper in Petabase-scale Genomics is _finally_ out! 🚀🚀 Congrats Andre + Co. making the world's sequencing data🧬 available in a major achievement for the field. 🚀🚀
Andre Kahles (@[email protected])@akkah21

After years of research and continuous refinement, we’re thrilled to share that our paper on the MetaGraph framework — enabling Petabase-scale search across sequencing data — has been published today in Nature (nature.com/articles/s4158…).

One year after our initial preprint, we're excited to post a major update to Logan. At its heart, Logan is the assembly of 27 million samples (50 Pbp) using a 6-day cloud-compute peaking at 2.2M vCPUs. This compresses the SRA 140x compared to raw FASTQs. github.com/IndexThePlanet…

After three exciting years @PrescientDesign @genentech, last Friday was my last day. It has been an amazing journey, with an incredible team, and I know there is much more to come from this stellar group of researchers. I am immensely grateful to my team, our collaborators, and to @stephenrra & @GligorijevicV for their mentorship and support over the years. Onto the next adventure!

🤯 One of the coolest stories I've ever come across showcasing virus-host-superhost interactions. This is a major paradigm in virus pathology that is woefully under-explored. 🍄 #virology #microbiology #fungi

🚨 Fungi + viruses + mammalian lungs? Buckle up! Our new paper in @natmicrobiol.nature.com uncovers the story of a deadly fungus and its gnarly viral hitchhiker — and how this duo may change how we diagnose & treat fungal disease 🍄🫁🚨 doi.org/10.1038/s41564… ⬇️
