Thrilled to share my first first-author paper is now published! Detailing SARS-CoV-2 immune responses in Scottish healthcare settings, this is an important insight into current population immunity. #SARSCoV2 #Immunology #PhD sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

The CoVFit paper is now published Nature Communications !! Exciting work led by Jumpei Ito really showing the potential of pLMs for genotype-2-phenotype predictions! Code and instructions for the command line tool here: github.com/TheSatoLab/CoV…

If any PhD student working in computational biology is displaced by this most recent tumult and is looking for a new lab, I have room for one (or potentially two) PhD students in my group. Feel free to reach out via email.

新作のプレプリントを公開しました!東大→UC BerkeleyでPhD課程の小野隆一さんRyuichi Onoとの共同コレスポ論文です。 接合伝達性プラスミドの宿主域を決める遺伝子群をbioinfoで炙り出し、その遺伝子の有無がプラスミドの戦略や薬剤耐性遺伝子の水平伝播パターンを規定している可能性を示しました。
