Very excited to tell you all about our new PRE-PRINT https://t.co/ifBaXucWK0 - Altered subgenomic RNA expression profiles in B.1.1.7 #SARSCoV2 using @nanopore & @NetworkArtic genomic seq data. This builds on our previous work describing sgRNA detection using this data 1/10
Our manuscript describing genetic changes in MND found by systematic screening of all patients, irrespective of family history, is out in JNNP today.

I was interviewed in this @thetimes article on the present and future of #drone art. Do take a look if you’re curious about the increasing use of drone swarms for mass celebrations (New Year’s Day, the Olympics, etc).
Fascinating look at mutational hotspots in spike associated with human and animal passage from Robert Garry, these are clearly the areas that can get "tuned up" https://t.co/x2SjrjCGEC
This animated timeline of the number and location of UK SARS-CoV-2 samples that have been sequenced and are the novel variant (lineage B.1.1.7) suggests that it's already to late to halt the spread of the novel variant to non tier 4 regions. The horse has already bolted.
We need help with our COVID-19 reports to the NHS and Dept of Health! Short term post perfect for an MPhil graduate. Possibility of remote working: https://t.co/jrpSVN4BC7
Genetic diversity of the COVID-19 virus from the first wave (Jan-Oct). We are just beginning to understand how the different strains work. Even though you may not be risking your own personal health by being exposed to the virus, you may inadvertently generate a dangerous strain
