Computer scientist at I2SysBio-CSIC. Transcriptomics, long-reads, multiomics, tool developer. Promoter of Green Science. Finally happy!
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

To join or not to join: handling biological replicates in long-read RNA sequencing data
Long-read RNA sequencing (lrRNA-seq) has revolutionized transcriptomics facilitating the study of alternative splicing and resulting in identification of thousands of novel transcripts. While isoform ...

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!

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! 🙌

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.
