🌟 Exciting news! 🌟 @gabriellovate, a PhD student at @UniJena@viroinf will be joining @AllGenetics as an intern student this Summer. Gabriel's expertise lies in microbial #genomics and #metagenomics, with his current research focusing on viral RNA structure 🧬🦠.
@EVirusBioinfC @sandratriebel_ @JenaRNA@iata_csic@VISAFELab Pleasure to talk to such an amazing community, especially at an offline event once again. And thanks to @sandratriebel_ making the preparation and presentation a joy ;)
PrePrint Alert: RIBAP
Back in 2018, @martinhoelzer and @lisa_barf were puzzled by a #Chlamydia core genome of only 9 genes. Turns out, most #pangenomics tools are challenged by input genomes from different species (but the same genus).

However, it's very intriguing to see how RIBAP performs on metagenomic samples, where evolutionary distances are potentially large but functional conservation is still essential.
What a ride. It all started back in 2018, had lots of attention until 2020 and then other things came along. But this year, @martinhoelzer and I decided to polish and finalize this one. RIBAPrePrint comes soon :)
1st full release of RIBAP!

RIBAP combines sequence homology info from Roary (kudos to the devs!) w/ clever pairwise ILP calcs (kudos to @klamkiewicz!) to produce a more complete microbial core gene set - even on genus level.
Implemented in @nextflowio
@_b_meyer Getting these from mdpi articles I refused to review... But for articles with no prior context at all is a whole new level. Are they at least related to virology!?
Everyone talking about @nanopore DNA sequencing and improving accuracy but you're more into dRNA-Seq? Check out the great work of Liuwei!
- median read accuracy ~90% w/ some species-specific exceptions
- majority Del and homopolymer errors
- C & U more likely to be erroneous

Be(e) ready for todays poster session at the #GfV2023. Interested in my work, but I am not around? Most likely I am at my second poster, unfortunately being presented in the same session.
