1/ How I started my bioinformatics journey. A thread: Back in my PhD, I was studying gene regulation in the context of cancer. My first paper was on CTCF functioning as an enhancer blocker at the VEGFA locus. divingintogeneticsandgenomics.rbind.io/publication/20… yeah, CTCF and VEGFA are my two favorites!







Thanks 10x Genomics for the invite to discuss data analysis resources for 10X datasets. Slides can be seen here if helpful to anyone docs.google.com/presentation/d…

We need to focus on Reproducible Biological Data Science. This is what we strive for U-BDS (UAB Biological Data Science core). Reproducibility trial: 246 biologists get different results from same data sets nature.com/articles/d4158…

Did 10x Genomics just make newer versions of Cell Ranger open source? github.com/10XGenomics/ce… (cc Shaun Jackman, Luiz Irber (@[email protected])). This is a huge win for open, transparent, and reproducible science if it’s the case!


Great turnout for our R, Unix and Git Software Carpentry workshop. Thanks to U-BDS and Liz Worthey team members for being certified instructors and our helpers!



Want to hear about the latest updates/new techniques in single cell and spatial genomics? Check out my lab's eighth annual Single Cell Genomics Day on March 29. Keynotes from IdoAmitLab Jason Buenrostro and Xiaowei Zhuang. Please RT/spread the word! satijalab.org/scgd



Proud to have our work highlighted by the UAB eReporter. This would not be possible without a great team including, Liz Worthey , Bharat Mishra, PhD, Nilesh Kumar | Ph.D., Luke Potter and Austyn Trull ~Lara
