Hometown hero Dr Harriet Dashnow convincing us that short reads still have a place in tandem repeats, especially for infant onset TR diseases that are often overlooked #ICG2023

We're hiring! If you are #ICG2023 and want to know more, come and find me (Poster 102). Two research technician positions in marine genomics at UWA Oceans Institute and Minderoo Foundation, with some of the latest sequencing toys from Illumina, PacBio & Oxford Nanopore. (Deadline 6 Aug.) #genomics #jobs

The one-two combo of an emoji poster to draw people in and then WHACK here’s some serious work on cancer is proving to be a great sales strategy. 🥑🧀🍇🍅🍫 #ICG2023

Twice in this session the tension between community driven analysis and tools, and the ability of commercial sequencer providers to control and change the landscape, has come up. Not sure what the solution is, but important to keep communicating for mutual benefit. #ICG2023

Registrations are open for our ABACBS 2023 conference to be held in sunny Brisbane in December! We're super excited to be partnering with ISCB News for the first time in our history, which will include discounted ISCB memberships for ABACBS 2023 attendees 2023.abacbs.org

Ok, on here just a little bit longer for the #ISMB2023 OR #ISMB23 OR #ISMBECCB2023 OR #ISMBECCB23 OR #ECCB23 OR #ECCB2023 tweets. Hopefully the next site is better at consolidating trends.

I am delighted to announce that I will be joining CU Department of Biomedical Informatics (DBMI) as an Assistant Professor in July 2024! I'm excited to be joining this awesome department and founding my lab! 1/3

Awards deadline has been extended by a week. Closing Friday 25th August. Dont be afraid to self-nominate or nominate your special binfie friend

Great to see our free literature screening tool, Catchii, published in Research Synthesis Methods. Awesome work by Andreas Halman 👏 doi.org/10.1002/jrsm.1…

Our Peter Mac Research Computational Biology Research Sprint is in full swing! Computational biologists unite!

Breaking my Ecks retirement to say, yet again, that the inclusion of the best talk winner from COMBINE is a great great tradition of #ABACBS23 and #COMBINE23

The worst thing about social media fragmentation is that it is too hard to do #conferenceBingo at #ABACBS23 and #COMBINE23 .... and there have been so so many Manhattan plots.
