plsRT: Looking for a motivated postdoc!
Join us at @bcmhgsc.bsky.social to explore the mosaic & somatic landscape of the human genome: structural variants, methylation, and all things @smahtnetwrk.bsky.social
If you like long reads, complex variants & methylation come talk to me!

Usually avoid politics on bluesky, but PBS is a particularly special cause for me: The House will vote this week on a massive cut to public media funding. Your local stations are at risk. Call your Rep. now and urge them to vote NO before it’s too late. bit.ly/3T68Qgw #ProtectMyPublicMedia

Exciting preprint from Haoyu Cheng (not on bluesky?) and @lh3lh3.bsky.social: building amazing Nanopore assemblies just got faster and more accessible! Thrilled to have played a small part in this work!
