Transcriptomics in the era of long-read sequencing #Review by @carolinamonzo.bsky.social, Tianyuan Liu & @anaconesa.bsky.social @conesalab.bsky.social @csic.es Free to read here: rdcu.be/efBjP

Our latest preprint on how to best combine multiple samples in lrRNA-seq experiment. Not, trivial as your capacity for detecting known and novel transcripts is affected. We discovered that results depend on data and reconstruction algorithm. @nanoporetech.com @pacbio.bsky.social tinyurl.com/4pnnbd92

I am SOOO excited to welcome our brand-new VEGA instrument, made possible through a collaboration among @uv.es @i2sysbio.es and @pacbio.bsky.social . Months ago, we fantasized about having one, and now this is a reality. I can´t wait to run the many projects we have in the pipeline!

Looking for a postdoc in computational biology? We are looking for a postdoc candidate apply for the fellowship 'Juan de la Cierva' for a project on long-read transcriptomics, multiomics, spatial transcriptomics, single-cell long-reads. Deadline is approaching!! (December 10th)

This is a very exciting opportunity to connect researchers working on RNA data analysis issues. I can´t wait to see this community growing!!! @bcbhubcsic.bsky.social @i2sysbio.es @hitseq.bsky.social @conesalab.bsky.social

Hoy participo en las Conversaciones Sostenibles del @csic.es en el IDAEA-CSIC para discutir la huella (in)sostenible de la computación @bcbhubcsic.bsky.social @i2sysbio.es @conesalab.bsky.social

And we are not alone!!! Our project on LrRNASeq benchmarking gathered an amazing team of hackers here in Berlin and in Australia!! @conesalab.bsky.social @bcbhubcsic.bsky.social

We’re thrilled to announce the first symposium dedicated to #LongReadsTranscriptomics, taking place in Valencia, Spain! More information available at: 👉 longtrec.eu/VALT/ If you want to keep updated, sign up here: 👉 shorturl.at/Qmb5D. @pacbio.bsky.social @hitseq.bsky.social @iscb.bsky.social

Looking for scientists working with long-read transcriptomics technologies to join a COST action proposal. Contact us!!! @nanoporetech.com @pacbio.bsky.social

Yesterday, I had the absolute pleasure of joining the National Genetics Course of @segenetica.bsky.social at the stunning Cristalera, teaching about long-read transcriptomics. 🧬✨ Inspiring discussions with brilliant young scientists and a joy to reconnect with old friends. Huge thanks! 🙌

🎉 @anaconesa.bsky.social, researcher at #I2SysBio ( @csic.es/@uv.es), has been elected Vice President of the ISCB (@iscb.bsky.social) one of the most influential organizations in the field of bioinformatics and computational biology. 👏 Congratulations, Ana! www.i2sysbio.es/communicatio...

BCBHub congratulates our Coordinator Ana Conesa on becoming the new Vice-President of ISCB! @bcbhubcsic.bsky.social @anaconesa.bsky.social @i2sysbio.es @iscb.bsky.social

I’m truly honored to be elected Vice President of ISCB, and heartfelt thank all ISCB members for your trust and support. I’m excited to work alongside Bonnie and the rest of the EC to keep building a strong, sustainable, inclusive, and forward-looking community for computational biologists worldwide

I enjoyed reading this paper by @hubertr.bsky.social lab comparing artifacts in scRNAseq vs sc-Isoseq @pacbio.bsky.social Concluded standard pigeon filtering may remove too many isoforms, a problem we address in SQANTI3 through our Resue step. Any plans to try this? pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40630932/

🎉 Proud to announce that @conesalab.bsky.social has a new website! Explore our research, news, and projects — and now also listen our brand-new podcast 🎙️. Whether you are commuting to work or biking 🚴‍♀️ to a conference, you can now take us with you! First podcast is, of course,.... The #SQANTIverse

The July blog-post of the @conesalab.bsky.social is out! Intense activities right before the break: visits, conferences, @longtrec.bsky.social summer school, and biking for sustainable science @i2sysbio.es @hitseq.bsky.social @bcbhubcsic.bsky.social @iscb.bsky.social conesalab.uv.es/july-from-va...

📣 ELIXIR has published a position paper on the importance of #OpenData infrastructure for 🌍 European competitiveness in life sciences. Read the news 👉 https://loom.ly/22XW72k #ResearchInfrastructure #Science4EU

Interesting discussion at today´s #ISMBECCB2025 keynote Amos Bairoch on sustainability of molecular databases, a growing concern as they´re underfunded. Industry should pay? users? charge to grants? We need a serious commitment to preserve the common knowledge. @iscb.bsky.social @elixir-europe.org

#ISMBECCB2025 is about to start! Follow @bcbhubcsic.bsky.social @conesalab.bsky.social and @longtrec.bsky.social to discover exciting contributions from @csic.es @i2sysbio.es and the #longreadTranscriptomics communities!!!

What a great week at @earlhaminst.bsky.social, spent together with the awesome @longtrec.bsky.social folks! Learned a lot and had some great discussions about long-reads sequencing analysis! 🙌🏻💡 Big thanks to @anaconesa.bsky.social and everyone who made it happen! 👏🏼

The @longtrec.bsky.social Summer School in LR-RNAseq is now finished, but not our sustainable trip. From Norwich 2 London by train, drop the bikes and train again to Liverpool to attend #ISMB/ECCCB2025, and continue talking about long-reads and sustainability @iscb.bsky.social @hitseq.bsky.social

Checkout our latest blogpost, with a recap of @anaconesa.bsky.social amazing trip to reach Norwich! conesalab.uv.es/longtrec_of_...

Guess what! I am running for vicepresident!!! And other commitment colleagues are also offering their service. Check the candidates´ statements and If you are a @iscb.bsky.social member, do not forget to vote!!!

Sami leads the most algorithmic project of the LongTREC network, trying to develop new methods to deal with mapping issues that are so important for these data. He does k-mers, minimizers, strings. He is a brilliant mathematical mind!!!

Leda is really lucky to work in such an amazing scientific environment. She is our expert in tRNAs. Did you know that RNAs is much more that one linear sequence? They can be modified in many different ways before translation. Leda wants to crack the code and find how this impacts cancer. Go, Leda!

Tian is an extremely passionate and dedicated young researcher that is constantly trying to push the frontiers of knowledge. He is also extremely considerate and always bring us presents when he travels back from visiting his family in China!!!

Not everyone can or wants to cycle for 2–3 days, but we can all take a moment to ask ourselves: 💡 “How much am I impacting the planet with this trip?” 💡 “What can I do to reduce that impact?” @anaconesa.bsky.social #LongCyclingForScience #SustainableScience #LongReadsTranscriptomics

We made it!!!! València-London by train. London-Norwich by bike!!!

First journey done! 🌟 Our amazing cyclists arrived safely in Cambridge — still smiling! 😄🚴‍♀️ More than the ride: sustainability, team spirit & pushing limits. They’re recharging now… and ready for the next leg! #LongCyclingForScience #TeamSpirit @anaconesa.bsky.social #LeadingByExample

The sustainable adventure continues for the fantastic three! @anaconesa.bsky.social Nadja Nolte & Fabio Zanarello Keeping the smile while leading by example! 🚲🌱
