Excited to share our new preprint evaluating the impact of ionizing #radiation on the environmental #microbiomes of Chernobyl wetlands. ā˜¢ļøšŸ¦  Radiation had impacts on beta diversity (not alpha)! Very fun collaboration with @pabloburraco and @GOrizaola! biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Pretty cool metagenomic run of pangolin's feces on the @nanopore GridION! šŸ’©šŸ¦  Quite degraded sample but a (not expected) N50 of 2.5 kb! And more than 1 Gb in 2 hours! Great start! šŸ§¬āœ… #metagenomics #ConvergeAnt
