💬 “This work demonstrates the power of technology to reveal novel biology, in this case hidden functional diversity which had not been documented before." - @drkarimgharbi.bsky.social

Newly-discovered diversity in the #wheat #genome could improve one of the world’s most important staple #crops.

Two of our students - Rosie and Archie - shared their experience working with our Technical Genomics and Earlham Biofoundry Groups, developing their skills and gaining practical training in #genomics and #laboratory #automation. 🧬

@tech-commit.bsky.social

A great day with #Tecan bringing together those involved in lab #automation for #genomics to discuss the latest trends, considerations, and applications of this technology.

Join us in Norwich for a day of automation goodness, including talks, lab tours, and more.

Really nice work led by @conradn.bsky.social , and a prime example of how transformative technology can reveal new biology.

Great to see Group Leader Dr Wilfried Haerty (@whaerty.bsky.social) presenting his work at #PacBioPRISM this afternoon!

Dr Haerty leads our #CellularGenomics research programme and is interested in the impact of variation on gene and transcript expression across scale.

@pacbio.bsky.social

TALK: We're looking forward to hearing from @katielong.bsky.social next month, presenting research from her collaboration with our #singlecell team using #spatialtranscriptomics on expression in developing wheat spikelets.

#genomics #sequencing @drkarimgharbi.bsky.social

💬 “By using a much-expanded set of robust barcodes, we can pool more samples in the sequencing lane, making better use of our capacity and further lowering the cost per sample.” - @drkarimgharbi.bsky.social

LITE2 takes affordable genome sequencing to a new level

Technological advances have transformed #sequencing, but costs and timescales can still be limiting, especially in library generation.

Earlham Institute's updated Low Input, Transposase Enabled (LITE) protocol offers low-cost, high-throughput whole #genome sequencing with reduced DNA input. 💻🧬🧪

A team from the Earlham Institute and the Czech Academy of Sciences have #sequenced and assembled the first near-complete annotated #genome of the wood-decaying bracket fungus, Somion occarium, as part of @ergabiodiv.bsky.social. 🧪

@rowenahill.bsky.social @drkarimgharbi.bsky.social

Catch our scientists at the #FestivalofGenomics later this month where they'll be discussing overcoming data challenges in #singlecell biology, and ultra #longread #sequencing in #DNAreplication.👇🧬🖥️

@flgenomics.bsky.social @drkarimgharbi.bsky.social @conradn.bsky.social @whatchamacaulay.bsky.social

A new study in Scientific Data from the Earlham Institute, @rothamsted.bsky.social, @rbgkew.bsky.social, and @ergabiodiv.bsky.social presents a high-quality annotated orange foxtail grass #genome, shedding light on what makes it such an exceptional survivor in modern #crop systems.

💬 “This development will deliver the computational performance we need to support our science into the future." - @neilhall.bsky.social, Director.

New #DataCentre at #NorwichResearchPark set to bolster UK’s #bioscience capability.

@quadraminstitute.bsky.social @thesainsburylab.bsky.social

Huge thanks to @elinork.bsky.social for her brilliant talk about #comparative #genomics and the #Zoomomia project at today's inaugural Dame Janet Thornton Lecture. We were pleased to be joined by Prof Thornton to introduce the lecture.

@neilhall.bsky.social @broadinstitute.org

Great to see this important resource published.

The reference #genome was supported by @pacbio.bsky.social HiFi data generated through the Transformative Genomics National Bioscience Research Infrastructure at the Earlham Institute, led by @drkarimgharbi.bsky.social.
