📜 freshly published in @JournalSpectrum today.

Our metagenomic study of (lower) respiratory tract infections (both viral and bacterial!) on 25 endemic swIAV infected 🐷 German farms across 4 age-groups.

On a quick note from maternity leave: My group's publication on using real-time @nanopore genomics to enhance the accuracy of antibiotic resistance profiling in complex infections led by @ElaSauerborn @TU_Muenchen @HelmholtzMunich is now published: https://t.co/hDbA7yAIDP

Baltimore Bridge is 1.6 miles long,

this is the moment it collapsed after a cargo ship struck it in the early hours of this morning

Anyone up to date with planned revisions in #Bifidobacterium #taxonomy? Gardnerella vaginalis is classified as Bifidobacterium vaginale in GTDB, so it impacts our work on #vaginal & #infant #microbiome @Isala_UAntwerp @ISAPPscience @FelisGiovanna @ElisaSalvetti1

@JVerwilt Congrats! 😁

@BabyBoomerWritr @nanopore There is an EHV specific workflow in place which has been used in the readily response to a comparable outbreak in Spain in 2021 🐎 🦠

The inability to identify respiratory disease factors caused by influenza, results in poor animal health. @methenickname discussed how nanopore sequencing can identify viral & bacterial agents in pigs to better understand respiratory diseases. Watch here: https://t.co/4LHxrHimyU

@iiSeymour Is the RNA004 kit a modified version for R10.4.1 sequencing or should an RNA-specific flow cell be used to run these models?

Should you use a short-read polisher on your short-read assembly? This post describes a little experiment I did to shed some light.

Spoiler: no, you probably shouldn't 😄

Thanks to @genomarit for inspiring this one!
