Thatโ€™s a wrap! Huge thank you to everyone who joined us for #ABACBS2025 & a big shout-out to the Adelaide bioinfo community who worked their butts off. Couldnโ€™t have asked for a better crew or a better venue than Adelaide Oval. @wessidepraxis.bsky.social @linsalrob.bsky.social

Targeted sequencing and iterative assembly of near-complete genomes - Nature Communications Long-read sequencing enables high-quality genome assemblies, but challenges remain. Here, the authors introduce Cornetto, a method that improves assembly quality, enables genome sequencing from saliva...

Our cornetto work is now published at www.nature.com/articles/s41...

It can do near-T2T assembly using @nanoporetech.com adaptive sampling
- with less ๐Ÿ’ธ
- reference agnostic, so works for non-humans
- not just blood, even saliva

Just presented at #abacbs2025 yesterday.

10 years ago I took a flight to Sydney to attend my first COMBINE. The support of @shazanfar.bsky.social @hdashnow.bsky.social and @lonsbio.bsky.social meant the world and I made so many friends that year I still get to hang out with.Thanks to everyone for a successful conference! #ABACBS2025

It was great to present TRECA at ABACBS 2025 as a lightening talk.

Come find my poster #21.

With Slorado, now you have more choices for GPUs when basecalling @nanoporetech.com sequencing data. This is a work we collaborated on with AMD, led by
PhD candidate @bonson-wong.bsky.social (poster at #abacbs2025) and great to see being highlighted in the AMD blog: www.amd.com/en/blogs/202...
