These are juvenile small-spotted catshark (Scyliorhinus canicula) hatched in August this year. So cool!

Direct native RNA (no cDNA!) sequencing from @nanopore is revolutionising RNA sequencing. It already achieves 19.4 Q accuracy and can detect modifications like m6a, m5c, pseudouridine and inosine. Watch my colleague Bronya Boydon explain how it works.

This is worth a new thread. Not quite 24 hours. 50 Gb of data with an N50 of 115kb from a single load on a flow cell. This compares with 33.4 Gb in the same time from a standard flow cell with the same library and 2 loads. These beta flow cells need to stop being beta @nanopore

[Matt Loose @mattloose]

Phone screenshots are the worst. But can you tell which flow cell is the improved buffer? One needs flushing, the other is still going strong. I hope @nanopore can get these out of beta asap!

Over 5 minuten begint de première van De Wilde Noordzee. Lokatie: Caprera openluchttheater in Bloemendaal.
Volgende week te zien in heel het land.

Preprint on "BWT construction and search at the terabase scale". We can compress 100 human genomes to 11GB in 21 hours, find SMEMs with it, do affine-gap alignment and retrieve similar local haplotypes. 7.3Tb commonly sequenced bacterial genomes ⇒ 30GB https://t.co/DiRwZNHVVa

Sequencing DNA on our shiny new @nanopore MinION Mk1D. Hooked up to a workstation with a RTX4080 GPU, live basecalling at SUP accuracy is easy. Can't wait to connect it to an @Apple Ipad Pro instead, and take it in the field and at sea! #realrealtime #mk1d

[Reindert Nijland @ReindertN]

@rajkdevika @nanopore @Apple As you can see on the Mk1D website from ONT, it is not yet available for purchase. We are testing a device under a developer licence.
