Icky look at what's in the air in our lab 🤢 Contamination Club

Excitement is building for the 12th iteration of the Aquatic Virus Workshop to be held at the fantastic Oceanologic Observatory in Banyuls-sur-Mer, France during 5-9 May 2025. We have a great lineup of speakers, and a nascent website: avw12.sciencesconf.org/?lang=en

📣NEWS: In just 2 years the nonprofit GetGenome has shown its international impact to extend well beyond genomics - demonstrating the transformative power of open science and collaboration. A new publication shares more: tsl.ac.uk/news/getgenome…

2/ GetGenome's team and network authored a publication about the motivations that led to the nonprofit's creation as well as its wide-ranging impact across the Global South. journals.plos.org/plosbiology/ar… James Canham & Sophien Kamoun Joe Win

4/ Even though technological advances have made DNA sequencing increasingly more affordable and accessible, in many countries (particularly in the Global South) sequencing remains prohibitively expensive - leading to unequal access to genomics and hindering scientific progress.

6/ Participants have embraced GetGenome's core values of open science & collaboration: publishing in the free-to-publish and free-to-access repository Zenodo and initiating their own local workshops, fostering knowledge exchange among scientists worldwide 🌍

I just published: GetGenome Story Inspires Looking back on its first two years, it’s evident that GetGenome’s impact extends well beyond providing genome sequences and training to the global scientific community. link.medium.com/IvlJjIMIFMb

Proud to be among the people that GetGenome supported and inspired! Thank you! 👏
