I’m excited to announce that I'm recruiting a PhD student in Human-Centered Computing (HCC) at @UMBC! If you're passionate about building AI systems, the future of work, or community-engaged research, apply to our HCC PhD program! Why UMBC, you ask? Let me tell you! (1/5)
Our paper highlighting the differences in the male-determining Y chromosomes of cattle and sheep from telomere-to-telomere assemblies published at @NatureComms
Some interesting differences uncovered which we intend to explore further between breeds.
Sequencing of the sex-determining Y chromosomes of cattle & sheep has proved difficult. Olagunju et al. present complete T2T assemblies of these chromosomes & uncover differences between suggestive of divergent evolutionary trajectories.

Due to unforeseen circumstances, I need to reschedule my appointment but could not do that on my account since it is less than 2 days. Please help me with this.
Our latest methods paper "Minmers are a generalization of minimizers that enable unbiased local Jaccard estimation" (aka MashMap3) is out with @BKille@erikgarrison@traingene! There's an interesting backstory here 🧵 \ https://t.co/ZVwiHsVNBO
Shameless plug! Have you used our software (MUMmer, Krona, Mash, Canu, Merqury, Verkko)? Or our reference genomes (#T2T, @genomeark, @HumanPangenome)? You can vote for us to win the Sammies People’s Choice Award! It's easy, just click here ➡️ https://t.co/SWfF2ZRSjr
My favorite T2T/Pangenome discovery so far: a multi-megabase inverted segmental duplication on the short arm of chr14 that explains the mechanism of Robertsonian translocations. Great writeup by @ScienceStowers "Answering a 50-year-old mystery" https://t.co/u90TGUwnYt
The Discussion is thoughtful and worth reading.
To bioinfo students: if you are unable to solve introductory problems on your own, you may have more troubles with advanced research problems. Before ChatGPT replaces all human programmers, practice is still important.
It's a new day @ILRI! Shared my vision with ILRI&CGIAR hosted institutions staff at my 1st official roundup session today! My vision emphasised on Core values-empathy, collaboration, leadership, performance, efficiency and responsiveness, Partnerships for equitable collaborations
Congratulations to @BrunMarcel and Wren Jenkins the top 2 winners of the #AGBTAg CLICK2WIN competition. It was so close! @nanopore is looking forward to @agbt#AGBTAg24 in Phoenix
