Oh wow! Just saw that our Genome Research article for the #maftools Bioconductor package crossed over 1000 citations. Thanks to all the contributors and users for citing :) Just in time for Bioconductor 3.15 release, with support for CNV, and cancer hotspot report. De-Chen Lin

Somewhere near Kukke and Shiribagilu. Western ghats are truly mesmerizing.

Amazing opportunity for an early-career researcher to become a computational group leader in the Division of Cancer Epigenomics at the German Cancer Research Center in Heidelberg. 👇

Do you like #Rstats and #Datavisualization? Follow basegRaphics where I tweet pretty plots (with code and data) generated using pure base graphics with no dependencies. This is for those who like to learn and customize base R plotting functions. #BaseisBeautiful :)

📊Rを使った美しい作図を紹介するプロジェクト。ggplot2やlatticeを使わずに標準の作図機能でやるのがすごい。 ggplot2とは違った綺麗さがあるなと感じます。自分もこのくらいできるようになりたいな〜

Join us this Friday (3-6PM, July 29th): 2022 USC Head and Neck Cancer Symposium. This event features leading figures in the field sharing new insights on both translational and basic research on head and neck cancer! We have both in-person and online options!

All these years and I didn’t know that this existed! #samtools

Very excited to share our DNA methylome studies in esophageal cancer, a +5-year long journey with the amazing Ben Berman and yueyuan, started @CSCancerCare and polished CCMB @ USC USC Norris Comprehensive Cancer Center biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

We are seeking computational postdocs for single-cell genomics in cancer DKFZ and Hopp-Kindertumorzentrum Heidelberg (KiTZ) Please help RT Thank you nature.com/naturecareers/…

It’s unbelievable how fast #echtvar by brent pedersen is. Annotating a whole genome vcf (5m vars) with gnomad and internal allele frequencies takes < 5mins. 🙌 github.com/brentp/echtvar

I've been meaning to advertise echtvar a bit more. Indeed it's oddly fast and pretty flexible for annotating with large databases. In the paper, we even encoded gene, transcript, impact for all possible SNPs (3 per position) and the archive is still small.

Extremely cool.

Introducing figeno, my visualization software for (epi)genomics🧬🎨. Supports many data types (bigwig, HiC, Oxford Nanopore data with base modifications, WGS...) and is easy to use with a GUI. Can visualize multiple regions (e.g. for breakpoints). github.com/CompEpigen/fig…
