Sunbeam: an extensible pipeline for analyzing metagenomic sequencing experiments biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Our new paper on the link between gut microbiota and genetics in IBD, showing strong connection between Nod2 and Faecalibacterium prausnitzii, is published in PLOS Genetics ! journals.plos.org/plosgenetics/a…

Clades of huge phage from across Earth’s ecosystems- now on biorxiv biorxiv.org/content/10.110…. We recovered hundreds of huge phage genomes, including the largest ever, and find evidence for expanded translational machinery and new phage-encoded CRISPR-Cas systems

Very excited to announce my first R package! @ClausWilke and I are developing #tidyroc. You can use it to plot ROC and precision-recall curves, and it is nicely integrated with the #tidyverse's #dplyr, #broom, and #ggplot2. See example in the retweet.

Does anyone have suggestions of good #Bioinformatics conferences with focus on #metagenomics & #microbiome this year? Thanks in advance! 😊 @kizza_a Chris Greening @DrKatHolt @minouye271 Evan Bolyen Greg Caporaso QIIME 2 Elisabeth Bik Dr Carly Rosewarne

In a recent study, Children's Hospital stress neurobiology and PennCHOPMicrobiome scientists found that #microbiome transplants in animals can alter depression-related behavior & cause brain changes. Learn more: chop.edu/news/transplan…

Excited to share work on Evolution in the Human Microbiome at #ASMMicrobe2019 tomorrow morning in the "Evolution in the wild"! Looking for postdocs and grad students to join me at UCLA, so come chat with me afterwards if you are interested!

Check out our latest #Cdiff collaboration! @DMAronoff Eric Skaar

1. SNP MP fondled two 17yr old girls behind his wife's back 2. SNP MSP de-frauded a pro-indy group 3. SNP MSP immorally flipped houses for a profit 4. Former SNP first minister accused of bullying 5. Current SNP first minister accused of cover up But yeah sure, you're "better"
