A really fantastic example of how metagenomics can guide public health practice. Definitely introducing my students to minION sequencing with this paper! Metagenomic sequencing at the epicenter of the Nigeria 2018 Lassa fever outbreak | Science https://t.co/zFTDSkejc5

@bekss96 @karencang HI Bekah, interesting to see this, @KiraPearson12 and I have been kicking this idea around for quite awhile! Maybe it's time.

[Loren Launen @LorenLaunen]

@karencang @TheTattooedProf @thatpsychprof @actualham @suwhitte I also use the OpenStax Microbiology textbook for the last couple of years and think it'is quite good.

@gobman Once I went to school with my sweater on inside (ok more than once but..). To a meeting with my lab group. In a moment where I left the room apparently they all discussed who was going to tell me it was inside out, and somehow came up with a plan for letting me know - thankfully!

[Loren Launen @LorenLaunen]

@willt_kscbio @haley_zanga @karencang And this is why you are such a fabulous student. Creative, capable, with initiative and exceptional team skills. A life long learner who is a joy to work with.
