Looking to show off your new variant finder, interpreter, visualizer? Submit to our #bibm2022 workshop on Computational methods to characterize genomic variants using high-throughput sequencing data. Papers due Oct. 10 (Don't worry. I'll remind you) combioconference.github.io/bibm2022-works…

We are hiring postdocs! Reach out if you are keen to work in single cell and long-read genomics, computational biology, or image analysis, to study patterns of mosaicism! Our interdisciplinary are, depending on interests, geared more towards experimental or data science research.

Two openings from my group: a) postdoc either on developing methods for sequencing and pangenomic data, OR on the analysis of these data types. b) staff scientist on high-performance algorithm development. For details, see hlilab.github.io/vacancies

Check out this short course for #primarycare providers to learn more about #raredisease. 7/27 at 3ET It’s led by an amazing group of experts and will be very practical! Registration link in the original post #MedTwitter National Organization for Rare Disorders (NORD)

UAB Neurobiology is recruiting tenure-track faculty (open rank) again this year - come join our growing department! uab.peopleadmin.com/postings/14658

Study of basecalling errors in nanopore sequencing of telomeres, from Kar-Tong Tan, Slevin, Meyerson & Heng Li. Telomeres in many organisms are frequently miscalled, but tuning the basecalling models improves this, with minimal impact in other regions genomebiology.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.11…

Fast-Higashi is featured on the cover of Cell Systems. Diverse cell types (marbles) can be characterized by single-cell 3D chromatin structures. Fast-Higashi identifies latent correlation of different cells (connections among marbles). cell.com/cell-systems/f…

Happy to share our recent work about Autophagy therapy, and the credit should go to talented and hard-working trainees as well as dedicated collaborators!

The Houston Astros are 2022 World Champions! 🏆

Koa’s first ever NFL game. My last ever NFL home game. My heart is filled with nothing but love and gratitude. It’s been an absolute honor and a pleasure. 🙏🏼

Great to see that our work on gene fusion detection in long-read cancer transcriptome appears in the first issue of Cancer Research aacrjournals.org/cancerres/arti…

Our work, DeBreak, on long-read SV detection is online now Nature Communications: nature.com/articles/s4146…. Welcome to test it out. #longreadsequencing #SV #structuralvariation

Recently published: Zechen Chong and colleagues develop DeBreak, an algorithm for comprehensive and accurate #StructuralVariant #SV detection in #LongReadSequencing data across different platforms #Genomics #CancerResearch Cancer at Nature Portfolio nature.com/articles/s4146…

A personal update while working on #RNA23 badge... Excited to announce that Su Lab will open its door UAB Genetics in July! We are recruiting at all levels for anyone who is interested in RNA modifications, gene regulation, NGS analysis and cancer biology. (1/4)

Happy to release vamos-1.3.6. /much/ faster contig+read IO, and TR tables include ~800k STR loci. Overall decent agreement between vamos and HipSTR allele lengths, with a preprint on tech-specific analysis dropping soon. github.com/ChaissonLab/va…
