@GabzMB @KingsCollegeLon @KingsForensics Congratulations Ella! Dr. Mason-Buck has a great ring to it 🥳🍾🥂

[Becky Smith @BeckyGenomics]

If we can assign accurate taxonomy to MAGs, they could drastically improve the accuracy of taxonomic classification!

Thanks for all of the support, so lucky to have these supervisors @_Faecal_Matters @BioMickWatson @Microbes4ever

[Becky Smith @BeckyGenomics]

Parameters for high-quality MAGs, something to aspire to! Great talk @kirk3gaard #GenomesMicrobiome22

[Rob Edwards @linsalrob]

Very clear from @alexmsalmeida talk #GenomesMicrobiome22 that you need to use MAG databases for #bioinformatics analysis of your #metagenomics data.

But where do you get the data from?

[Becky Smith @BeckyGenomics]

@Amandatron89 @imogenrena Ahh that’s amazing congrats Imogen!

[Becky Smith @BeckyGenomics]

@FSargison Congratulations Fi!! 🎉🥳🍾

Been about five years since I first read this, on the English language's *completely universal but totally invisible* adjective hierarchy, and I can honestly say I've thought about it most days since.

[Mike Cox @MikeyJ]

Postdocs of the UK (and the world). What thing did you not know as a PhD student, but would have been good to know in advance about being a postdoc?

Sometimes these things skew negative; good, bad and neutral things too please! I will add subsequently too.
