🦠🧬🖥️ We've released v1.5.0 of Bakta along with a huge DB update! New features: - detection of pseudogenes - assignments of KEGG Orthology accessions - addition of 9.8 million E.C. numbers to PSCs github.com/oschwengers/ba… More information below 👇 (1/7)

Bakta is a worthy successor to Prokka, which has been neglected in recent years. Bakta is being actively developed with new features that Prokka never had, so I encourage Prokka users to try it out!

Anyone know of a primary specimen collection tube that is: - leakproof - screw cap & closes with a minimum 1.5 turns - meets guidelines P650 for human exempt specimens? - meets guidelines shipping of ethanol in limited quantities? The 1.5 turns criteria has me stumped.

PSA that this is probably a good time to make sure you don't use your Twitter password for any other important websites (email, bank accounts, etc.) 👀

what do folks use for electronic lab notebooks? for small-med #biotech, must integrate well with MS Office apps, e-sign/approvals, simple/easy to use for better adoption, version control or revision history.

Please read and disseminate the joint statement from postdoc associations in Germany, whose voices so far have been ignored in the discussions to reform fixed-term contracts in Germany. The future of competitive and inclusive science in DE *is* at risk. #IchbinHanna #WissZeitVG

We published in JAMA the results of a randomized Phase 2 study of @vedantabio‘s lead candidate VE303 for prevention of recurrent C. difficile infection (rCDI) 👉🧵/1

My first publication as corresponding author is out today in its final form! I'm hoping this methods paper can essentially be the AIMS "bible". If you want to see how we can analyze TCRs, antibodies, peptides, and MHC all in one go, take a look: journals.plos.org/ploscompbiol/a…
