Deadline for submitting an abstract for the #virtual Victorian #Cancer #Bioinformatics #Symposium 2020 is *August 28th*! Don't miss out. We'd love to hear about all your fantastic work! 😎

The #covidsafe app is now available in Australia 😷

However, it's a shame that they have decided not to release the source code for full transparency.

Luckily, I'm a curious chap and also a professional mobile developer.

Want to find differential transcript usage in 10X scRNA-seq data? Check out new R package Sierra. An amazing collaboration with @KittyLo6, Ralph Patrick, @davhum, @AliciaOshlack and Richard Harvey.

@joshuawkho @VictorChangInst Thanks for presenting Ularcirc @joshuawkho. sorry that I couldn't be there. Sounds like you gave an engaging seminar. Catch you next week at ABACBS!

I’m proud to announce that @BioRender (a project my team & I have poured our hearts into for 2 yrs) has 200K+ figures by 95K+ scientists 👨🏽‍🔬👩‍🔬! We built this so you could stop struggling to make figures in PPT 🔬 Also, the base version is free, forever 💜 https://t.co/KJpyxgxeQt

Ularcirc now takes output from CIRI2, circExplorer2 and STAR. Check out the following screencasts:

Today being RNA day (1st AUG) reminds me of a time I was tempted to name my twin girls Renae and Denae (spelt RNA and DNA). Couldn't do it cause I would have favoured Renae.... #RNAday #dadjoke

Ularcirc, the first software tool that provides a complete circRNA workflow from detection, integrated visualization, quality filtering of BSJ and forward splicing junctions (FSJ), through to sequence retrieval and downstream functional analysis.

[antisense. @razoralign]

Ularcirc uses an innovative method to filter out false positive circRNAs coined read alignment distribution (RAD) score which allows detection of circRNAs independent of gene annotations.

Dear circRNA and splicing community: Today I have placed an R-shiny app called Ularcirc on github. Provides visualisation and in depth analysis of both backsplice and associated canonical splicing. More related info soon. https://t.co/A6Ux0S1mxI

[David T Humphreys @davhum]

My Ularcirc manuscript is now on bioarchives https://t.co/TdRmCcS3rj
One take home message from our work is that gene model annotations can still be improved

@N_Gurianova @circrtrain That is strange, not sure why that has happened. Thanks for letting me know. Have uploaded it to my youtube account. Can access here: https://t.co/ks9kYxFRLb
