Logan is the largest dataset of assemblies. Rayan Chikhi et al. assembled over 27M SRA samples (>50 peta-byte of reads) into two peta-bytes of contigs. Amazing resource, fully open source! <3 📄biorxiv.org/content/10.110… Code: github.com/IndexThePlanet… 💾 registry.opendata.aws/pasteur-logan/

This preprint is a draft. But given the immense utility of Logan for biology and medicine, we are immediately/freely releasing the data for early-adoption. Reach out if you’d like to collaborate. #Genomics is our shared evolutionary heritage, and so we must keep it free.

PenguiN, our viral metagenomics assembler, just got accepted at BMC Microbiome! In contrast to the standard de Bruijn graphs assemblers, it uses all-vs-all alignment in linear time to merge reads. This allows it to often resolve severalfold more strains than dBG assemblers.

📢 We're excited to introduce Pathoplexus, a specialized sequence database for human viral pathogens! 🌍 🧬 Launching with 4 viruses, Pathoplexus.org combines modern open-source software with transparent governance to improve global pathogen sequence sharing. 1/14

One of the reasons I've been quiet on Twitter for a few months is because I've been working on something big - something I'm really happy to share now! Pathoplexus.org A new, open-source database for pathogen sequence sharing. 👐🧬🌎 1/12

From Science Magazine: “We believe that building trust through transparency is essential for encouraging broader participation in data sharing,” says Pathoplexus co-founder Anderson Fernandes de Brito Anderson F. Brito  science.org/content/articl… #Pathoplexus #OpenScience

Why are so many inherited traits not explained by genome sequence variation? In my PhD work with Brent Derry we describe a new mechanism of inheritance in animals that may account for this ‘missing heritability' 🧵nature.com/articles/s4155…

Reconstructing virus evolutionary history is hard! Structural prediction and phylogenetics can help👍 Check out our new study out in nature nature.com/articles/s4158… University of Sydney Sydney Health

Thanks for inviting me for the conversation Tim, it was really fun to delve into the future of Viromics with you and discuss where the field is going.

Our latest paper is out! In collaboration with Anne Carpenter, PhD, we conducted a systematic high-content screen to understand the role of protein mislocalization in diverse human disorders. 1/ cell.com/cell/fulltext/…

Excited to share our new preprint! We identified a novel extrachromosomal element, named "Inocle," in the human oral microbiome. Inocles are giant (max 395kb) and surprisingly found in 74% of the worldwide population. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

For any trainees who want to join what is most certainly going to be one of the best pathogen genomics labs in the world, it's a good time to inquire 👇
