Geek of many colours, using genomics to track and understand pathogens at @ESRNewZealand. not really on twitter any more.

Full page feature on my Dad and some of his contribution to the Wairarapa and our understanding its history in the dom post today: https://t.co/Z4eSjmhnB8

Also. New watch. Fully embracing being a watch guy now.

And, for anyone here from the good old days. We went to Japan and Korea and rode a lot of trains and ate a lot of food

Not really on here any more because... everything. However, I'm looking for someone to take over maintenance of rentrez, a widely used #rstats @rOpenSci package for getting data from ncbi. Would be great to see this maintained abs improved. GH Issue: https://t.co/KfWYlC8Czf

@evilsmaug Amazing news, and well deserved!

[David Winter @TheAtavism]

@DuckSwabber Your tweets have been invaluable
for those of us trying to keep AIV along with every other pathogen! Have really appreciated then

[David Winter @TheAtavism]

Next three days, hope to catch some of y'all if you're here

In Canberra. Went out of my way to see the light rail even though 5yo train fan is not with me.

He's actually made me a trainspotter

My first in person CDGN meeting. The connection to the Australian state and territory labs using genomics for public health is so immensely valuable for @ESRNewZealand , amazing to be able to discuss this face to face today!

A privilege to attend my 3rd @CDGN_Australia Annual F2F Meeting!

@DuckSwabber Congrats on some very well-deserved recognition!

@DrHHNZ Oh.... certain biofilm forming pathogen i guess!

[David Winter @TheAtavism]

@gsinton These were all late 70s early 80s, so somehow even older than us. But could well have been one you got a bit later

Parents got given a couple of old boxes of lego...

[David Winter @TheAtavism]

I was team "sell these to collectors and buy new stuff for the 5yo", but these sets are actually really fun in their own right. As well as the being retro-future cool looking

[David Winter @TheAtavism]

@arubikscube @strnr I wish I'd known about this when I was dealing with fungal genome assemblies, where naming convention for chromosomes have stuck with roman numerals

First result from this project on the viruses our migratory birds carry to and from New Zealand and the subantartics. Detection of a low path. flu not closely related to previously sequenced genomes.
