To somehow pretend that AI is different than any academic or other effort undertaken by a person where you incorporate the knowledge of others to generate new ideas is...I mean, that's just stupid. The rules did not change. They were broken, repeatedly.

Some of these responses ate very gaslighting adjacent. When you copy someone's work verbatim, that is plagiarism. When you use someone's work without citation, that is...also plagiarism. And that's when the work is published and part of the public record!

Senior Bioinformatics Scientist What if the work you did every day could impact the lives of people you know? Or all of humanity? At Illumina, we are expanding access to genomic technology to realize health equity for billions of pe...

The Genome Informatics team is hiring! We are a smart, fun, and creative team that is working on the cutting edge of bioinformatics, including Constellation read mapping, an exciting new technology from Illumina enabling long range information from short reads. Also, Vitor is an awesome manager :-)

Illumina Provides Updates on Multiomics Product Pipeline at ASHG The company offered more details on its "constellation" mapped read technology, Illumina Protein Prep assay, 5-base genome, PIPseqΒ V single-cell assay, and paired 500-base MiSeq reads.

I am incredibly proud of the work being done by the bioinformatics and assay team to enable Constellation mapped read technology. I feel very fortunate to work with such bright and talented people :-)
