My girlfriend and I spent a couple of minutes wondering why the nucleotides were grouped like they are, as dinucleotides. Then we realised... DNA is double stranded, so obviously your txt file has to have both strands. Except the pairings aren't even correct. Truly amazing

Ppl are on twitter for many reasons. I'm here to chew bubblegum & teach scientific inference. And I'm all out of gum. Engage yourself with 20+ hours of free lectures on causal inference and Bayesian data analysis. This isn't an ordinary statistics course. github.com/rmcelreath/sta…

Stuck in metagenomic data wanting to resolve strains? We have lorikeet for you 😎! So lorikeet is a within-species variant analysis pipeline for metagenomic communities that utilize long and short reads. 👏👏👏 to Rhys Newell github.com/rhysnewell/Lor… #Bioinformatics #rustlang

We showed: 1. quantification of SARS-CoV-2 from wastewater; 2. phylogenetic inference; and 3. VOC detection through tiling amplicon sequencing. Great fun so far, more to come. Thanks to collaborators Jianhua Guo acweb @BGI_Genomics Ben WoOdcroft and Rhys Newell.

Happy to see my fellow CMR PhD student, Alex, getting their great work out. Excellent work and hopefully of great use to the metagenomics crowd: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

CMR bioinformatics group lead will tomorrow present "new tools for genome-centric metagenomics" (assembly, binning, strains) developed by just submitted Rhys Newell tomorrow on zoom. All welcome after registration with ABACBS below.

Come find me at #ISME18 at poster 94 to talk about variant calling, strains diversity, and #rustlang in one of the tools from my PhD: Lorikeet Centre for Microbiome Research

Populating the tree-of-life with a genome pr. species is a moonshot mission that I think is realistic within a decade! Come and tell me why it is bullshit and then let's discuss how to join forces to get it done! #ISME18 poster 170! pst.... we are recruiting at all levels!

So glad to finally make it to an ISME event. Lovely people and some very cool science, thanks to everyone for a great time so far! #ISME18
