This is incredible #AI #predictingcancer

Autism risk/prevalence IS highly associated with your genetics. Trivial data links autism risk to environmental factors. #autism #risk #genetics
There are many studies supposedly associating some environmental factor with risk of autism. They tend to have tiny effect sizes (=> an almost negligible increase in cases out of 1,000 exposed vs unexposed). For comparison, genetic risks are ENORMOUS
A kakapo has a bun in the oven, for the first time in a decade ❤️ #magical #kakapo #reverseextinction
IT WORKED! We've achieved successful #kakapo artificial insemination for the first time in a decade. 3 females from 15 attempts produced 5 viable eggs - 2 chicks surviving. This is a huge breakthrough for #kakapo #conservation. doc.govt.nz/ai-success-for… #kakapo2019 #kakapoAI
Great example of informatics simplifying a very complex dataset into a meaningful figure of value to the general public. #winning #ebola #DRC

@QIAGEN @bioinformer Will do. Thank you!
Ain’t that the truth! #nanopore #borderlinemagical
"At London Calling, we witnessed Oxford Nanopore deliver universal access to sequencing, to anyone, anywhere, and we strive to make the compute portion of genomics workflow equally accessible to everyone" great insight from @hpcprogrammer at @NVIDIA: bit.ly/30YIvoo
The PromethION 48, which recently generated 7Tb of sequence data, has made it to @GrandOmics_Intl in China! We're looking forward to seeing the team's progress with dbSV-100k — a project to sequence 100,000 affordable nanopore long-read human genomes: bit.ly/2VuXEKc
Incredible icy expedition... with a #nanopore #ONT #nerdvana
Find out how @glen_gowers and team sequenced on Europe's largest ice cap, pulling everything they needed for 20 days on skis & sledges! They've documented their adventure, ft. the 'DNA extraction sleeping bag lab', complete with video diary, here: bit.ly/2vYjb3w
@MarcoEMechan @VinatzerLab @nanopore What wash buffet was used? I have a “dead” flowcell that I would be keen to wash and re-run. Thanks!
Beautiful cell division! 😍

Say awwww! The cutest, newest genus of frogs, discovered! #MiniMum is my favourite, does she have kids?! #MiniFrogs #Madagascar
Just published in @PLOSONE!! Meet Mini, the newest genus of frogs from Madagascar!! With three new species: Mini mum, Mini scule, and Mini ature, because I am HILARIOUS. journals.plos.org/plosone/articl… #MiniFrogs #NewSpecies #Miniaturisation #science
@drtkeane That is why DIY is better. 1.5%SDS lysis + 1.5% sodium metabisulfite @ 55 C with ProK @ 400 rpm for 3 hrs. Chloroform wash, no phenol. Precipitate 1 vol EtOH (NO salt), spool + wash x3 with EtOH (GuHCl in 1st wash). Good for #bionano #longread #wideboretips
@drtkeane All dependent on type of mammalian tissue, sample age, required read length, cost + sample numbers. No single kit will process multiple sample types equally, no matter the supplier e.g. higher protein content is treated very differently to higher fat.
