We've been fascinated by a few diverse C. elegans strains on the Hawaiian islands. In an effort to find more of them and investigate natural niches, my lab deeply sampled the islands. Here is what we found: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

A new opinion from Adam Siepel looks at how bioinformatics grew up from ad hoc, almost hobbyist beginnings, into the underpinning of most of modern biology, but the funding routes have not adapted. He suggests ways to improve the funding support genomebiology.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.11…

This Rust Language tool is part of my work Google Health’s genomics team (hosts: Daniel Cook ∛ and Anastasiya Belyaeva). We use it for evaluating DeepConsensus, though it should be generally useful for evaluating basecalling or other sequencing methods Github: github.com/google/best

DeepSomatic (github.com/google/deepsom…) preprint is out showing improvements in somatic variant calling in various platforms. Work lead by Jimin Park and Daniel Cook ∛. Tumor-only lead by Pi-Chuan Chang. In collaboration with Andrew Carroll, Misha Kolmogorov and @BenedictPaten. 🧵1/7

Let's face it, LibGen and SciHub are popular because they solve a problem Elsevier should have solved: disseminating knowledge.
