Our preprint for a complete workflow for plant genome assembly is out

[Patrick Driguez @patrick_driguez]

A great pleasure for me and Angel Angelov (https://t.co/xyb7wqEWQg) giving guest lectures for @Mo_Li_KAUST's Introduction to Nanopore Sequencing course @nanopore @KAUSTBCL @kaust_corelabs

[Patrick Driguez @patrick_driguez]

A great event coming up next week at #KAUST organised by @KAUSTBCL and @nanopore

Very proud to be involved with this project!

[Robert Hoehndorf @leechuck]

We assembled the genome of an individual from Saudi Arabia and make the assembly and sequencing data freely available; the genome is almost complete (compared to CHM13) and fully annotated; great collaboration with @MalakAbed @kaust_corelabs @CBRC_KAUST

I feel like i've unlocked a science achievement by getting our work featured on @IFLScience . ✅🥳

Installed a Sequel IIe next to our Sequel II! Lots of high quality long reads coming up! @PACBIO @KAUSTBCL @KaustResearch @kaust_corelabs

[KAUST BCL @KAUSTBCL]

Our TGS is almost ready for the sequencing. Join us at the CBRC Metagenomics conference

My friends, a new MEGATHREAD has arrived!

In 40 tweets I’ll explain 40 useful concepts you should know.

Reading time: ~7 minutes.
Value: potentially a lifetime!

Welcome to our newest Center leader, Dr Francesca Short. Fran is interested in the regulatory networks that govern virulence and antimicrobial resistance in gram-negative pathogens & molecular mechanisms of antimicrobial biocides. Fran is helping drive our OneHealth agenda!

@SaudiMOH937 can i book an appointment for the covid vaccine in the Jeddah district please?

[Alexander Wittenberg @AW_NGS]

At the upcoming @NanoporeConf community meetings I will present a new, @nanopore only lettuce reference genome. Highly contiguous and highly accurate. https://t.co/k9VKNi3a3T

The genome sequence of the Australian filarial nematode, Cercopithifilaria.... McCann K et al., published by @WellcomeOpenRes, https://t.co/CYTVdumhVH

A nice outcome from a side project, a long long time ago in the @lab_grant at @PAM_latrobe . Very happy for @Kirsty_m_McCann 🙌

[Alexander Wittenberg @AW_NGS]

Looking forward to run these brand new @nanopore R10.4 cells @KeyGeneInfo Our aim is to increase accuracy further using trained models and increase the number of duplex reads. Q20+ #ngs #longreads #crops #breeding

[Francesca Short @DrFranShort]

Excited to see our paper out, and much improved from the pre-print version - we find that the “real job” of AmvA, a disinfectant resistance efflux pump from A. baumannii, is transport of polyamine metabolites. https://t.co/GHmJ39SAKO

gggenomes - an R package for comparative genomics, which extends the ggplot2 by adding dedicated plot functions for genes, syntenic regions, and verbs to manipulate the plot.

Less than one week left (closes 19th September) to apply for the postdoctoral researcher position in my group to develop and lead single-cell genomics for helminth parasites.

Will suit someone with good molecular biology skills with an interest in bioinformatics.

[Patrick Driguez @patrick_driguez]

@GenomeBiology @mrdoods @PacBio Our optimized workflow covers sample collection, DNA extraction, library prep, QC & genome assembly. Extras: DNA extraction protocol https://t.co/rUJwXlRReX; ONT, CLR & HiFi sequencing; HiFi vs high N50 CLR assembly; evaluating 4 HiFi assemblers & loads of stats + supp. info 2/2

[Patrick Driguez @patrick_driguez]

@GenomeBiology @mrdoods Our LeafGo workflow has been published. From leaves to high-quality genomes ≥ 7 days. Extracted HMW DNA from 10 different plant species, sequenced and assembled only with @PacBio #hifi #hifiasm➡️ 2 eucalyptus + polyploid peanut genomes (N50 > 36Mb)

I am excited to announce I am looking for a postdoctoral fellow to develop and lead single-cell genomics on helminth parasites for the next 3 yrs. Will be a combination of wet and dry lab. Please RT and share! https://t.co/jeneDQvXbc
