I’m not sure how many people still use this app, but I’m pleased to share our new preprint! @BetaScience
biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
I started thinking about how we could make the PICRUSt2 database easy to update and add new functions to about five years ago now…

Christmas came early for the IMR.bio! This should replace our two old MiSeqs and provide higher quality reads (for the full 2x300bp) and double our average number of reads per sample for the same price. Thanks to Andre Comeau, IMR Manager, for the photo op.

Big moves happening at @BetaScience’s #IMR. First @illumina MiSeq i100 Plus in Canada will start to churn data in the new year, adding to 17B reads already generated on their MiSeqs. Congratulations!

Thanks to Dr.@BetaScience for sharing how his team uses advanced computational tools (e.g. AI) to understand the different bacteria that make up human microbiome! It's a growing field and lots to uncover! 🔬👩🏾💻

Advanced #Microbiome Analysis, class of 2024! We had participants from across Canada and as far as Mexico and Kazakhstan. As always, our materials are open-access... 🧵

The Canadian #Bioinformatics Workshops are back, and the 2024 season is stacked! We've got new workshops across new locations and new formats. Stay tuned as we spotlight all the amazing training we're offering this year. More info & application form here: bioinformatics.ca/workshops/…
ALT A flyer advertising the 2024 Canadian Bioinformatics Workshop series. It has a large blue banner at the top, reading "2024 Workshop Program: Canadian Bioinformatics Workshop Series" and "Registration Awards Available". Below it are sixteen icons, each paired with a title, date, and location of a workshop. The workshops being offered are Infectious Disease Genomic Epidemiology, Beginner Microbiome Analysis, Advanced Microbiome Analysis, Metabolomics Analysis, Introduction to R, Analysis Using R, RNA-seq Analysis, Single Cell RNA-seq Analysis, Pathway and Network Analysis, Help! What Statistical Method Should I Use?, Epigenomics Analysis, Machine Learning, Proteomics, Machine Learning for Medical Imaging, Pharmacogenomics Data Analysis, and Pathway and Network Analysis in Virtual Asynchronous format. More information is available at bioinformatics.ca.

My MSc student @benfish404 decided to dress up as me today for Halloween! I wasn't in the office today, so he took the opportunity to take over my office and have a photo shoot, lol

This a honest and accurate description of maintaining a bioinformatic tool. The # of hours maintaining, documenting, and supporting a tool greatly outnumber the hours to build and publish it. Kudos to those that strive to make *usable* bioinformatic tools.

Today I noticed that dRep, a program I first wrote in 2016, has 1000 citations on Google Scholar! 🎉I want to share a thread on why I think the program "caught on" what I've learned maintaining it for ~7 years

Discussing the new Greengenes2 manuscript in journal club which is OA in Nat Biotech, which depends heavily on on new phylogenetic method uDance in same issue. uDance is not OA and my institution doesn't have access! Frustrating that this is still an issue in today's science.
