The Floria paper is now out in Bioinformatics! Fast and accurate strain haplotyping in metagenomes by the amazing Jim Shaw & jsgounot. Check it out: github.com/bluenote-1577/… It was great to collaborate with Yun William Yu academic.oup.com/bioinformatics…

Our recent work "Haplotype-aware sequence alignment to pangenome graphs" is now online at Genome Research (RECOMB'24 issue). It introduces new algorithms and complexity results for the problem. Led by Ghanshyam Chandra doi.org/10.1101/gr.279…

🚨 New preprint alert! 🚨 We’ve just published a study on medRxiv exploring the microbiomes of food centres (Hawker centres) in Singapore 🇸🇬. Our findings reveal unique, location-specific microbial signatures, some of which remain stable over a span of three years. We also

Our work (me and Yun William Yu) on fairy, a new ultrafast contig coverage calculator for metagenome-assembled genome (MAG) recovery is out in Microbiome! Short thread 1/4 microbiomejournal.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.11…

Advances in sequencing technology have piqued researchers’ curiosity about the presence of the blood microbiome 🔍 However, a joint study by Genome Institute of Singapore and NTU Singapore found no evidence of native microbial communities in healthy human blood. bit.ly/4dMGOjz
