I did not expect to find a paper in a new graph genotyper (using colored de bruijn graphs) which quotes Maya Angelou on line 1!

A new paper from the lab! Work led by
@drtamermansour.bsky.social and others not here on bsky. "We propose the Great Genotyper, a population-scale genotyping workflow to address the N+1 problem."

Long-read sequencing (LRS) enables high-quality structural variant (SV) discovery. SV genotypers utilize these precise call sets to improve the recall and precision of genotyping in short-read sequenc...

For decades, NIH funding has fueled breakthroughs in cancer, heart disease and more. But a new policy puts progress at risk. We need Congress to oppose this abrupt change. Join me in emailing lawmakers today! #SaveNIHresearch bit.ly/4hxmfsK

not paying indirect costs for research is like only paying the players in the Super Bowl.

can't have a Super Bowl without coaches, referees, security, janitors, announcers, stadium staff, and a stadium - and you can't have research without supporting people and facilities

I couldn't be more thrilled to be part of this amazing lab!
Hello bluesky friends! I'm excited to introduce myself. I go by (mee-gun) and am a proud #firstgen college grad that grew up in the midwest. My lab @UCDavis studies genetic drivers of human traits, evolution, and diseases, with an emphasis on neurodevelopment and complex variation. 1/10 (buckle up)

Admin emails saying they are actively working with protestors and "UC Davis cannot and will not discipline students for speech protected by the First Amendment." (good for them too!)
