From now until February 23rd, I will be climbing Mt. Kilimanjaro in Tanzania, Africa with 20+ biotech execs to raise $1M+ for cancer research and patient care at the @fredhutch .
Thanks to everyone for supporting me, the team, and cancer research!

Climbing a mountain (literally) for cancer research! Learn about TwinStrand’s VP of Data Science, @clintcodesbio, and his efforts to fight cancer:

Natural sample grouping in MultiQC.
Love to see it.
📢 Exciting updates from the MultiQC team at Seqera!
We have been working hard to enhance the functionality and performance of @MultiQC, and are excited to introduce key new features.

Hello to all #bioinformatics #rustlang,
I often copy code to generate data when writing tests. After 3 or 4 times, I got fed up and created biotest crates.
biotest can generate fasta, fastq and vcf, I'm open to any suggestion, feedback or contribution.

Most cells in your body do not have DNA / genomes.
~ 90 % do not have DNA.
~ 10 % have DNA
This is a remarkable and necessary tool for the Nextflow community. So excited to see the developer experience get better! Now we can stop worrying about code style and get to workflow-making!
So excited to announce @AMeynert has joined the @fulcrumgenomics team!

Two other resources of note for IGV:
- Interactive guide to getting started with IGV:
sandbox.bio/tutorials/igv-in…
- The supplement to this article, which is an incredibly comprehensive visual guide to reviewing somatic variants: ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/article…
A key skill in bioinfo is assessment of raw seq data. Tools like IGV are useful to view aligned reads & variants. I've manually reviewed 1000s of variants and it's worth knowing what a real variant looks like! From Sirisha in the @nanopore #EPI2ME team:

10x can't possibly sue Singular over spatial sequencing since Singular's doing spacial (outer space!) sequencing instead. Heavy coin too. Maybe I got an ultra-rare misprint? #AGBT
Waking up early at AGBT is always a challenge, but the technology breakfasts have been a great way to learn more details about all the fancy stuff in pre-release.
This morning is @SingularGenomic's teaser for a spatial sequencer: G4X.

The theme of #AGBT24 so far has been amazing molecular biology and technological innovations that solve problems previously requiring #Bioinformatics solutions.

We are excited to launch the UG 100™ with substantial improvements in indel accuracy, achieving a 99.4% INDEL F1 score and unveiling our new ppmSeq™ technology, capable of achieving 1 in 1,000,000 raw read error rates for SNVs, or Q60-level precision.

Today I learned essentially all RNAs including those that are long non-coding (lnc) form secondary structures. Sean Eddy of Harvard asks if lncRNA has functional evolutionary conserved structure at all?
Sean Eddy and team developed an algorithm for testing if a lncRNA has conserved secondary structure. Fewer lncRNAs than you would think do.
