Also a reminder about our *NEW* MRes in Microbial Genomics - please share with your undergrads. It aims to train genomics literate microbiologists, applications are open and I'm happy to be contacted directly to discuss. birmingham.ac.uk/postgraduat…

Thanks to everyone for coming to the Microbes & Food Safety Bioinformatics Hackathon. The main takeaway is that ChatGPT is coming fast and will fundamentally change how bioinformatics is performed

Had a really fun time at #GrandChallenges2022 in Brussels running a genomics outbreak tabletop on behalf of @NetworkArtic with @arambaut @igoodfel, huge thanks to @AineToole @firefoxx66 @BioWilko for putting together some fantastic materials. We hope to share them online soon!

What shall we do with all the Sars-CoV-2 sequencing infrastructure & expertise? Apply it to even *more* pathogens, of course! In this case, adenovirus F41, cause of childhood gastroenteritis & linked to unusual paediatric hepatitis cases osf.io/6jku5/

Signing off on the integrity of the @MRCClimb CLIMB-COVID @CovidGenomicsUK daily data ingest for the last time today... Having spent nearly two years looking after these pipelines it's going to be incredibly weird to not be thinking about them over the coming weeks.

Spike mutations seen in this study were not among the most common found by @PeacockFlu & @pathogenomenick in their recent study of chronic infections, indicating Sotrovimab treatment creates evolutionary pressure resulting in uncommon antibody-evading mutations. 3/7
