plsRT: Looking for a motivated postdoc!
Join us at @bcmhgsc.bsky.social to explore the mosaic & somatic landscape of the human genome: structural variants, methylation, and all things @smahtnetwrk.bsky.social
If you like long reads, complex variants & methylation come talk to me!

We introduce trio-barcoded
@nanoporetech.com
adaptive sampling (TBAS), which allows targeted sequencing of one trio in one flowcell. We tested it on HG002-4+13 trios from GREGoR.
TBAS and pipeline accurately report causative SNV, SV&TRs. @sedlazeck.bsky.social

We investigated Constellation from Illumina @bcmhgsc.bsky.social for rare disease cases @gregor-research.bsky.social from @bcmhouston.bsky.social.
We tested HG002-4 & sequenced 21 families. We could detangle complex SV & other interesting findings described here: www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1...
Constellation illuminates rare disease genetics
Despite significant advances in genomic sequencing, the resolution of many rare disease cases is still hindered by variant detection limitations. Short reads struggle in homologous regions, and long r...

Finished a large sailing race in the golf with a little electrical fire on board at night (23 Miles off shore)..... Still finished beating some professional sailors .. haha . :)

Now on the way to @geneticssociety.bsky.social meeting with 5 people from my group. Say hi if you see us :)

Come join us. Last spaces are filling up. Great opportunity to learn something new ( SV, Graph genomes etc) and get to know other people. We will report our findings in an f1000 report like every year.
