Thanks Oxford Nanopore for the shout out on #InternationalWomensDay !
Successfully defended my PhD today! Thank you so much to my advisor Steven Salzberg 💙💛 and my other committee members Mihaela Pertea and Winston Timp
Getting to be a part of this project was the honor of a lifetime. So many people to thank but to highlight a few Karen Miga & Adam Phillippy who led the entire project. Marina Haukness & Mark Diekhans who led the annotation efforts and of course my advisor Steven Salzberg 💙💛
Happy to see IGV now provides T2T-CHM13 as a hosted reference genome, alongside with our cytoband and gene annotation! h/t Arang Rhie
"Implications of the first complete human genome assembly" in Genome Research genome.cshlp.org/content/32/4/5… Lots of good stuff in here, but this quote from @meganamsu really makes me smile 😊 High-five Karen Miga 🙌
Beautiful day running the National Women’s Half Marathon in DC with my better half Andrianna Ayiotis! #runlikeagirl
This week I graduated from Johns Hopkins with my Ph.D. in biomedical engineering and was hooded by my wonderful advisor Steven Salzberg 💙💛. After spending a significant part of grad school doing everything remotely, it felt extra special to have the ceremony in person this year!
It’s been an honor to contribute to the annotation of the T2T Y chr! The preprint of the first truly complete human Y chromosome is now available! Big thank you to my amazing mentor Alaina Shumate, PhD and PI Steven Salzberg 💙💛 and of course everyone in the T2T consortium!!
It's easy for us to dream up the JHU VPR holiday card as there's boundless inspiration Johns Hopkins University✨🧬 Cheers! #t2tconsortium Michael Schatz Rajiv McCoy Winston Timp Steven Salzberg 💙💛 Sergey Aganezov @sz_genomics Stephanie Yan Melanie Kirsche Ariel Gershman Alaina Shumate, PhD #CompleteHumanGenome
Our paper describing our new, greatly improved human genome annotation is just out in preprint form, by Ales Varabyou Mihaela Pertea Markus Sommer Beril Erdogdu Ilia Minkin Kuan-Hao Chao Jakob Heinz Alaina Shumate, PhD Martin Steinegger 🇺🇦 Sukhwan Park et al. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
Remarkable work led by Arang Rhie and Adam Phillippy, finishing the human Y chromosome. It might be small but its complex structure made it super-difficult to complete. Pleased that my former student Adam Phillippy included my lab members Alaina Shumate, PhD and Jakob Heinz in the work
