#OTD in 1918 Fred Sanger, our namesake, was born 🎂
Known as the “father of genomics” to many, he described himself as "a chap who messed about in his lab".
Fred wanted to create methods that solved problems, including finding a way to read DNA. 🧬

A new initiative will use long-read RNA sequencing to map how gene activity shapes the immune system at a single-cell level 🧬
Working with @pacbio.bsky.social, this will give a deeper understanding of biology and could help identify new therapeutic targets 🔎
