We call SVs from PacBio HiFi long read data, and then impute into 10k AoU short-read datasets with EHR data to identify 291 SV–disease associations across 226 traits, with over half absent from the short-read callset. Fine-mapping revealed that SVs were the lead variant for ~70% of loci!!!!

Awesome time closing out GBCC with our hands on CoFest! Lots of fun writing code, updating trainings and building out the ecosystems- I submitted my first PR to the core Galaxy repo. Special thanks to Chris Mason for hosting us at Weill Cornell. @galaxyproject.bsky.social @bioconductor.bsky.social

And here is to the next 20 years of Galaxy and beyond! Now on to CoFest for some hands on hacking.

The whole room cheered for the grand finale using the GalaxyMCP server through Claude (in English!) to automate the analysis and even write up the methods descriptions! @galaxyproject.bsky.social

Awesome first night of the Galaxy and Bioconductor community conference at CSHL. The GBCC Live demo was the star showing off how to connect the communities through a detailed spatial omics tumor analysis. #GBCC2025 @galaxyproject.bsky.social @bioconductor.bsky.social @cshlmeetings.bsky.social

We also did an analysis of how long do the reads need to be to assemble genomes across the tree of life, see www.biorxiv.org/content/bior...

Incredible night celebrating Mark Stehlik from @scsatcmu.bsky.social. He was the advisor to all 4000 undergrad CS students at CMU and teacher to many thousands more. He played an enormous role in my life - I wouldn’t have reached as far as I did without him.

One of the most powerful moments of the day came from Emily Whitehead who told the story of how she was the first pediatric patient to receive CAR T-cell therapy for her leukemia at age 5: “I stand up for science because science saved my life. And that’s a fact.” @standupforscience.bsky.social
