I'm excited to introduce our new workflow for detecting endogenous viral elements - HI-FEVER. 🖥️🧬 academic.oup.com/bioinformati... 🧵 Big thanks to @ariskatzourakis.bsky.social, @humanceae.bsky.social, José Gabriel and Cormac for bringing this from conception to fruition!

Friends, for something to be open source, we need to see 1. The data it was trained & evaluated on 2. The code 3. Model architecture 4. Model weights. DeepSeek only gives 3, 4. And I'll see the day that anyone gives us #1 without being forced to do so, because all of them are stealing data.

Cami just published the cool software she and her collaborators developed for analyzing (and understanding) large and diverse sequencing data 🖥️🧬✨!
