Elated to release our new @NatureBiotech paper, "Performance assessment of DNA sequencing platforms in the ABRF Next-Generation Sequencing Study" led by @jfoox & @MyABRF, @stighe99 @sedlazeck, Don Baldwin, @Genomics_Guy, @genomicslab & @US_FDA's SEQC2! rdcu.be/cxs38.

This is superb - Megadepth! What other algorithms are like 1980s heavy metal bands?!? Like

Our new paper with @OdedRechavi came out today in @CellCellPress! "Illuminating Genetic Mysteries of the Dead Sea Scrolls" cell.com/cell/fulltext/…. 7 years in the making with tireless work from Oded to get it right; sets a precedent for genetically-driven artifact reconstruction.

@NYCuratrix @DrShaena @RGGSatAMNH @sebastian_kvist @SnorriSigur @DrScanley @pedro_peloso @SpencerGalen @KellySpeer @bernardo_santos I'm bad at Twitter and just saw this. Can this still happen sometime? I've got my McAleer's virtual background all ready to go

Our new @biorxivpreprint is up! "Host, Viral, and Environmental Transcriptome Profiles of SARS-CoV-2." COVID-19 patients (n=338) examined w/ qRT-PCR, RT-LAMP, & total RNA-seq, host responses (e.g. ACE2) & new diagnostic methods. biorxiv.org/content/10.110… Some highlights: /1

This is especially interesting after just a few years ago discovering (in a different species) eight large, circular, largely non-coding mitochondrial chromosomes: academic.oup.com/mbe/article/34… maybe just the tip of the iceberg for myxozoan mitochondrial evolution?

Amazing new work from the Huchon lab showing evolutionary loss of mitochondria in a myxozoan species -- in other words, an animal that doesn't need oxygen to survive. Featured in the NYT! nyti.ms/2Ptl9TO

“We find that long telomeric stretches can be accurately captured with long-read sequencing.” Learn how @LankyCyril @jfoox @mason_lab & co were able to discover novel & known non-canonical motifs w/ new edgeCase framework & @GenomeInABottle seq data. ow.ly/BKQz50yCOJQ

@mitenjain showing the fast Shasta pipeline for fast human genome assembly, with N50 results in the 20-30Mb, a low error rate (~1%), and reasonable cost ($70) for an @awscloud assembly and MarginPolish and Helen polishing to remove homopolymers #ABRF2020

A 2.44 Mb human read- the longest sequenced DNA molecule to date! @circulomics Kevin Liu shows updates to the @mattloose, @pathogenomenick, and @Scalene long-read protocol, w/ more >1Mb reads (whales) & even “pods of whales” on @nanopore, also helped by a nuclease flush #ABRF2020

Sharing slides from my #ABRF2020 talk on detecting base modifications in @nanopore data – with a special shout out to all the fish-based software names! Thanks to @mitenjain @stoibs11 and the many awesome members of the ONT informatics community dropbox.com/s/uqnohf3auz31…

Always a pleasure to have Scott Tighe take us on a global journey of extreme environments #AGBT20

Good days for long reads and epigenetics!
