🔬 Exciting news! We've just created a list of bioinformatics conferences, filling a gap that's been missing for years. It's a handy resource for planning your 2024 conference schedule. Check it out here: lskatz.github.io/posts/2023/10/… 🗓️ #Bioinformatics #ConferenceList

I don't understant how people still use t.test(), aov(), wilcox.test() and kruskal.test() in 2023 & put them into R books, when there is ggbetweenstats() available from {ggstatsplot} package? It's time to move on! R progressed! indrajeetpatil.github.io/ggstatsplot/ar… #rstats #rstudio #r4ds

🧑‍💻 Happy to announce that sandbox.bio v2 has been released! Same bioinformatics tutorials, but now powered by Linux running in your browser. Stay tuned, we'll be adding lots more tutorials this year.

REVIEW: Reflections on the ABC model of flower development (John L Bowman, Edwige Moyroud) buff.ly/3OIDlHM ASPB #PlantSci

HiFi assembler folks, if you have tons of raw fasta (total 700Gb) files as input but limited by the RAM whats the path you have taken to perform an assembly. Asking for a friend.

We are excited to announce cleaner nucleotide (nt) and protein (nr) BLAST databases with more accurate results! We now use NCBI quality assurance tools to systematically remove misleading sequences. Learn more: ow.ly/CEk950RlpoM #NCBICGR

Genome assembly Tutorials with SPades- Paired-end Illumina Reads

Generalized linear mixed models (GLMMs) are critically important for the analysis of non-normal data. Check out our recent review article to learn more. frontiersin.org/journals/horti…

Two papers in nature present a new genome editing technique that enables the insertion, inversion and deletion of long DNA sequences at user-specified genome positions. The approach may provide an easier method of genome editing. go.nature.com/3RGkI8M go.nature.com/3RHBvIs
