FangShiang Lim

Marie Curie PhD Fellow at @insectdoctors | Applying @nanopore to the field of mass-reared insects🐞🐝

[Vera Ros @VeraIDRos]

An excellent overview of the @insectdoctors project by @HerniouE! Highlights of research by 15 PhD candidates over the past years. 🐛🪲🦗🪰🔬🧬🧪 #entomology @socinv

Interesting presentation from @JWennmann @FangShiang @insectdoctors on pathogen detection

[insectdoctors @insectdoctors]

3 ESRs just completed a 1-week internship with the R&D team at Ynsect (NL). A big goal is to generate a molecular based monitoring approach for gregarines which are present in their rearing. Thank you Natasja, Koen, and Niek for the successful week!🪲🧬🔬

Today, @luis_her_pel and @FangShiang from the @insectdoctors project have shared with the students their work on high throughput sequencing for virus detection and discovery in mass-reared insects.

Happy to kick off the third @insectdoctors meeting in València

[Oxford Nanopore @nanopore]

#Nanopore basecallers use machine learning to achieve accurate & fast basecalling. Join this webinar to learn the how basecalling models work, how to train models using #Bonito, & when (& when not) to train your own models: https://t.co/q4V39FRulG

[Reindert Nijland @ReindertN]

First attempts at integrating a @nanopore MinION Mk1C with the @mclanelabs PPS for automated marine #eDNA sampling and sequencing in one. Might need some more iterations before we can deploy this in the North Sea, but this is the basic concept... @WURanimal #NLAS

[DNA metabarcoding @Metabarcoding]

Aurora Centre of Arctic Ecosystem Genomics is established and will soon recruit 4 PhDs, 3 Post Docs and 2 Associate Professors.

When you start a #PhD you are learning how to do research. You don't know how to do it so ask questions. Lots of questions. If you already knew how to do a PhD there wouldn't be any point in doing it. You are doing it to learn #PhDchat #PhDforum #ECRchat #postdoc #AcademicChatter

An entomologist at Binghamton University kept a group of African soft ticks alive in a lab for 27 years—and their offspring are still going at age 26. https://t.co/oh4osUwpCs

For the next game, players must peel off an ancient piece of autoclaving tape while wearing gloves

[Elisabeth Herniou @HerniouE]

Today @insectdoctors PhD training course it’s bioinformatic analyses! I’m pretty confident that our #nanopore data will tell us what #pathogens🦠 killed our #insects🐛. Teachers from @IRBI_Tours @JKI_Bund @INRAE_MICALIS

[insectdoctors @insectdoctors]

At last!! The INSECT DOCTORs students finally meet in person for our network meeting at INRAE, France. Good to see collaborations developing in this great team of students @insectdoctors #MSCA 🦠🦗🧫🦟🪰😃
