I'll be giving a platform talk at #ACMGMtg26 on March 12 titled: "A rapid, novel approach to rare disease and clinical genetic variant discovery using on-flowcell proximity sequencing and haplotype-resolved variant calling." www.illumina.com/events/confe... Happy to chat if you are attending!

Really great talk!

If you are interested in medically relevant and challenging genes (e.g., SMN1/2, PMS2, NCF1, STRC...). I encourage you to watch this talk that our collaborator at GeneDx gave at ASHG 2025. You can watch it here: www.illumina.com/events/webin.... The talk starts at 31:57 and runs through 50:41.

We @uga_genetics are hiring a TT assistant professor in Human Genetics to investigate how genetic makeup influences an individual’s risks for diseases or responses to drugs and therapies. All research approaches will be considered. Please RT. ugajobsearch.com/postings/456597

New paper! We characterized the breeding system elements (number of breeders, relatedness, reproductive skew) of fire ant using data from a long-term rearing study combined with data from previous studies. Open access at: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10....

Looking forward to another great AGBT-Precision Health meeting in San Diego Sept 8-10. Abstracts due June 30th. Hope to see you there! We'll have an increased focus on rare disease and AI in genomics this year. #AGBTPH25 www.agbtprecisionhealth.org

🧬 Now in Bioinformatics Advances: "Benchmarking of germline copy number variant callers from whole genome sequencing data for clinical applications." Explore the full paper here: https://doi.org/10.1093/bioadv/vbaf071 Authors include: @ribozyme.bsky.social, @shunhuahan.bsky.social

Here is a sneak peak of the new sequencing technology I have been working on together with many others. Much more to come in 2025! www.illumina.com/science/geno...

One of the biggest questions we get is when will our journals be here. We thank you for your patience. You can now follow our journals with this starter pack!

First post on Bluesky, let’s share some websites offering many free illustrations for scientific figures 🖼️ 🧪 🌍 : scidraw.io bioart.niaid.nih.gov www.phylopic.org More well known but very nice though: www.freepik.com

Our group is hiring a senior bioinformatics scientist on early R&D prototyping (novel algorithm development). Lots of very cool projects to work on. Let me know if you are interested! illumina.wd1.myworkdayjobs.com/en-US/illumi...

Open-rank tenure track positions in computational biology! Come work with a gaggle of great colleagues in the CMSE department at Michigan State! #msu #cmse #compbio #bioinformatics #genomics #BioSky careers.msu.edu/cw/en-us/job...

So cool…

🔍The Human Genome Projects Next Chapter 🔍 🌍 The Human Genome Project was a historic milestone, providing a reference for countless discoveries in human genetics. Yet still... gaps remained, particularly around human diversity and complex regions of the genome.

Make your own Google Scholar word cloud! (from shiny.rcg.sfu.ca/u/rdmorin/sc...) #Brassica #Plant #Genome #Evolution #Polyploidy #Phylogeny 🧪

This is very interesting and highly relevant paper to clinical genetics and rare disease researchers. I wrote the accompanying News & Views piece. Free sharing link here: rdcu.be/d0VlK

I really enjoy this immersive webpage on works coming out of the Human Cell Atlas. Journals ought to create more resources like this for science education. www.nature.com/immersive/d4...

New tool that helps you discover new accounts based off who you already follow. #AcademicSky 🩺🖥️🧬

I learned some stuff about Bluesky I did not know by reading this. Maybe worth passing it on to others so we can all start getting the full benefit of the 🦋.

Somehow my first impression is “wow look at those tumor subclones!”
