Hey #AcademicTwitter 👋 ... interested in getting to know me and my various 'omics' research on marmosets and other Brazilian primates... Check out my personal website (cute marmoset pictures and toons included). I would love to hear from you too!

Remembering the first woman to be awarded a Nobel Prize, the first individual to be awarded two Nobel Prizes and still today the only individual with two Nobel Prizes in two different scientific categories: Marie Skłodowska Curie.

Curie was born #OnThisDay in 1867.

Thank you @KamalaHarris & @HillaryClinton. I am so thankful you care so much, that you radiate excellence, and that you terrify mediocre men and those in thrall to them. #Someday

Never underestimate the power of large groups of stupid people.

He was the worst POTUS in history.
Impeached twice.
Convicted felon.
Tried to stage a coup.
Sold state secrets.

But hey …at least he isn’t an intelligent Black woman.

This week I discussed some of my primate MHC work at SIB Conference for Evolution and Characterization of the Immune System in the Netherlands. The best part was acknowledging all the people and organizations that support this work including @evotobi @MeyerBritta.

For anyone interested in using portable DNA sequencing with Oxford Nanopore MinION as a teaching and capacity-building tool in conservation and biodiversity research, here is a great article by Watsa et al. (2020) with training advice, case studies, step-by-step protocols, and lots more!

It's also worth checking out the supplementary information for equipment lists, a generalized course syllabus, protocols and pipelines, and a post-course questionnaire.

You can read the article here:

Watsa et al. (2020). Portable sequencing as a teaching tool in conservation and biodiversity research. PLoS biology, 18(4), e3000667.

You can also read all the protocols on https://t.co/sR9b9QGixM:

And, since field sequencing methods advance quickly, it's also worth checking out a more recent article on field sequencing by Pomerantz et al. (2022):

Pomerantz et al. (2022). Rapid in situ identification of biological specimens via DNA amplicon sequencing using miniaturized laboratory equipment. Nature Protocols, 17(6), 1415-1443.
https://t.co/YQlLXm4wqA

And an even more recent article by Srivathsan et al. (2024) featuring real-time DNA barcoding via ONTbarcoder 2.0:

Srivathsan et al. (2024). ONTbarcoder 2.0: rapid species discovery and identification with real‐time barcoding facilitated by Oxford Nanopore R10. 4. Cladistics, 40(2), 192-203.

New work on morphological phenotypes of marmoset hybrids (aurita and jacchus groups). We hope it serves the primate community for understanding marmoset identification, evolution, and differences between marmosets in and out of biomedical facilities https://t.co/bk0eaDOMRJ

2 and a half weeks until BGA starts and all of our sessions are fully booked!

However, we will be uploading everything to YouTube, and the GitHub repo's will have everything you need to follow along!

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
