Excellent multi-year collaboration with Mahony and Lai labs! Kudos to PSU's RISE team, specifically Danying Shao! A first draft of a Galaxy-style solution for biochemistry. @WilliamKMLai @icds_psu @prashkuntala @mahonylab @GrettaKellogg @galaxyproject

[Genome Biology @GenomeBiology]

Shao, @WilliamKMLai & co present PEGR, a platform for epigenomic and genomic research. It's an end-to-end management platform that tracks experiments from sample information for the wet-lab work, through sequencing and analysis, to figures for publication https://t.co/M1NDciYXnA

[Dr. B. Franklin Pugh @ThePughLab]

Rare spring evening w/@ThePughLab & @CornellBiotech's #Epigenomics Core members! Best wishes to @Chitvan29, @kylini, & Ali who are off to new adventures! We didn't have a proper farewell earlier due to covid rules. We'll miss you but we know you will do amazing work! Cheers 🍻

[Yvette Seger @YvetteSeger]

@WilliamKMLai and @GrettaKellogg of @Cornell have developed high-performance #epigenomics data management and analysis solutions. Join us now to learn how to use these tools to boost your research! https://t.co/FpZfCssQWq

Congratulations @manyu_du & @BaiLab_PSU! This is such a cool technique - CICI lets you engineer specific chromatin interactions under chemical control 👇

[Cornell CVG @CornellCVG]

SAVE-the-DATE: The CVG Summer Symposium, Pioneers and Rising Stars in Genomics, will be held on campus in-person from June 7-8, 2022. We will have four sessions of scheduled talks with two invited speakers (Pioneer guest and Cornell Rising Star). More details to come soon!

[Dr. B. Franklin Pugh @ThePughLab]

Congratulations @mahonylab!! Great opportunity for computational biologists and @cegrPSU is a highly supportive training environment"!

[Shaun Mahony @mahonylab]

Thanks to a new R35 MIRA grant from @NIGMS, we are hiring postdocs. Join us if you're interested in developing neural networks to study & predict the DNA-binding targets of transcription factors. Apply at link, or get in touch with questions. Please RT!

Welcome back @Cornell for the new semester! Let's start it off right with another contest.

First person to correctly guess how many NextSeq500/550s, MiSeqs, and NextSeq2000s, we currently have in our @illumina fleet wins 10% off a NextSeq2000 run.

Rules in tweet thread.
