Today we kicked off the #ComparativeGenomics course with @sedlazeck.bsky.social & Ingo Ebersberger!
On Day 1, we’re covering de novo assembly strategies, best practices, and quality control for genome assemblies.
Sensational #ASHG event on detecting variants, including Structural Variants, from long reads learning.ashg.org/products/unc...
@sedlazeck.bsky.social @bcmhouston.bsky.social
Last seats available! 🚨
Join our #ComparativeGenomics course with @sedlazeck.bsky.social & @Ingo Ebersberger and learn how to analyse, compare, and interpret genomes using modern bioinformatics approaches. Don’t miss it—registration is closing soon!

We’re excited to confirm Fritz Sedlazeck as our first speaker for #nanoporeconf! His research confronts genomic inequity, identifying novel variants that could influence disease risk, gene regulation and healthcare in Hispanic populations. https://bit.ly/4sOxMKd

Many thanks to @iscb.bsky.social for a fantastic visit at their meeting in Hong Kong last week! Met so many great people during that week.
Many thanks also to Ruibang ! Always great to make a bad joke while taking a picture ;)
Thanks Ben for a fantastic visit! Hopefully see you soon

Huge thanks to @sedlazeck.bsky.social l Luis and everyone who joined our Structural Variant Detection & Comparison course! 🚀✨
We dived deep, learned tons, and had some insightful questions and lively discussions — you all made it very successful!
Wishing you all the best smashing your projects!
@benlangmead.bsky.social giving a talk about rowing his boat and explaining pangenomes with that :).
Amazing talk about reference biases and the future to avoid it.
Fascinating talk at @bcmhgsc.bsky.social @riceuniversity.bsky.social ! @treangen.bsky.social

We have just started the workshop on Structural Variant detection from short @illumina and long reads @nanoporetech.com @pacbio.bsky.social with @sedlazeck.bsky.social , Luis and a very international group of attendees.
www.physalia-courses.org/courses-work...
Excited to co-host @benlangmead.bsky.social at @bcmhouston.bsky.social Dec 3rd 4:00-5:00 PM. He is a lead in pangenomics! A rare opportunity to learn more about reference issues, so dont miss out!

adaptive sampling (TBAS), which allows targeted sequencing of one trio in one flowcell. We tested it on HG002-4+13 trios from GREGoR.
TBAS and pipeline accurately report causative SNV, SV&TRs. @sedlazeck.bsky.social
