@susiegriggo_ absolutely doing @combine_au proud with best talk encore at #abacbs24

[Dr Andrew Lonsdale ( ➡️ Lonsbio.bsky.social ) @LonsBio]

For a highly supportive community only giving gentle claps as a send off, there is a fair bit of sass from the lightning talk host @TheEllisPatrick

@KarelBrinda @nomad421 @cwvhogue @bioinformer @OmicsOmicsBlog Rust will be the replacement FASTA/Q file format that everyone raves about.

@nomad421 @cwvhogue @bioinformer @OmicsOmicsBlog I'm doing a talk next month for PyCon Au on the (in?)famous emoji @fastqe and biomojify tools https://t.co/ymsDiGEY8z and the joke at the end will be that FASTA/Q are so bad that emoji based replacements are not as ridiculous as you might think.

[Dr Andrew Lonsdale ( ➡️ Lonsbio.bsky.social ) @LonsBio]

A delight to talk about the not-as-silly-as-they-sound emoji bioinformatics tools FASTQE and Biomojify at #AGTA24

Education is a pillar of research, and education thrives on engagement.

[Martin Smith @martinalexsmith]

A great talk by @ipda42 on developing Hydra hybrid de novo assembly to discover lncRNAs, identifying over 60k high-confidence lncRNAs from ovarian cancer meta-transcrtiptomic data #AGTA2024

My solution to social media spread is add fuel to the 🔥 by just randomly posting to different platforms in turn ☀️🐘🐦 for #AGTA24

@martinalexsmith @AntoBeck @iracooke If it's any consolation, no one appears to be posting on Mastodon or BlueSky either.

Do sponsors (e.g. Illumina) tend engage on any other platforms, or is it Twitter or bust @AntoBeck ?

I am currently recruiting a computational postdoc in my lab at CU https://t.co/6jWSeBmlS1
The candidate would develop and use computational genomics methods to understand the genetic underpinnings of rare diseases and increase diagnoses.
Pay starts at $70k for recent PhD grads

[Dr Andrew Lonsdale ( ➡️ Lonsbio.bsky.social ) @LonsBio]

Two weeks left to submit an abstract to Cancer Bioinformatics Australia.

After VCBS in person 2019, 2020 and 2021 online, and 2022 as part of ABACBS, this successor symposium has a real 'getting the band back together' vibe.

Register and submit now!

@hdashnow @propicee hard agree!

2014.... hang on... that makes it 10 years ago!

The worst thing about social media fragmentation is that it is too hard to do #conferenceBingo at #ABACBS23 and #COMBINE23 .... and there have been so so many Manhattan plots.

@GenomixKid I'm getting strong 🧟 vibes
