The genome of the Glacier lanternfish is out! Great tool for increased biological understanding of lanternfishes. But it had a secret... loss of all classic MHC function! Preprint: https://t.co/DGLTSS1ffM @olektoerresen @kjetillj @TorkildBakken Ave Tooming-Klunderud Morten Skage

Call for papers 📢 Special Issue on the genomic assessment of adaptive potential in populations facing environmental challenges.

How can genomics inform effective management/conservation and predict responses to environmental change?

Deadline April 1st!

A lot of bioinformatics requires editing sequencing reads to facilitate QC and make them suitable for processing. To help with such tasks, @DelaneyKSull developed splitcode, now published at https://t.co/9bbTPPAgdh 1/

I bet some bioinformatics results have merge errors caused by bad joins on variant positions — @jgschraiber and I were just discussing this. Why? Because VCF is 1-based, BED is 0-based, GTF/GFF is 1-based, BAM is 0-based, SAM is 1-based. Joins on (chrom, position) key are bad.

The difference in @10xGenomics' Cell Ranger's default between version 6 and 7 is discussed in this thread, but it's such a big deal that it's worth its own thread.

tl;dr: in v7 Cell Ranger changed how it produces the gene count matrix leading to a huge difference in results. 1/

Very HAPPY to finally see FIX&CUT out!🤩

👉🏼 Enabling sample fixation followed by tissue dissociation without stressing the cells.
👉🏼 Promoting flexible, collaborative, and multi-center clinical research studies.

📢 Stay tuned. Tweetorial coming up soon!

KAGE2 is out! Enables very fast and accurate genotyping of structural variants using pangenomes: https://t.co/PHJi7K3fJp. I’ve spent the last 6+ months going deep into the SV rabbit hole, and had some surprises I thought it’s worth to also share (1/6)

Everyone needs to know about `easystats` in R

It is so much fun to use and then share with students

Teaching on regression and just used the check_model() function and look at this beautiful figure
