Sniffles2 improves SV detection across long-read platforms. 🧬 It's faster, more accurate, and even detects mosaic SVs in bulk data—a major boost for somatic variation research. Uncover the science behind it: pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11…

Stayed offline too long.. Several key papers came out (thanks to my group & great collaborators), thankful for great consortia meetings, might have a position in my lab opening, new lab homepage: fritzsedlazeck.github.io oh and got tenured (I know perfect timing ;)). Thanks all
