Finally, the results of my postdoc at the
@BigDataBiology lab in Shanghai see the light! The work includes my three favorite things research-wise: 🦠 microbiome, 🧬 long-reads, and 🐶 dogs.
See our new preprint:

Full text HTML version of the preprint now available too: biorxiv.org/content/10.64898…
How well do ARG detection pipelines agree when applied to the same data? Spoiler: not very well.
In our new preprint, we ran 10 pipelines on 270M microbial unigenes from GMGCv1. The same data can support conflicting biological conclusions!🧵

If you made it this far, thanks for reading. I hope you enjoyed it.
I am currently looking for my next research adventure. If you have insights on the microbiome/microbial genomics job market in Europe (academia & industry), or want to chat about this work, please reach out.

September 2025 updates!
A focus on Anna's preprint, but several other updates too, including Faith Adegoke joining us to work on AMR and several other preprints

A comment I wrote for you is now online at @NatureComms:

Oh, oh, it says "time travel will likely remain forever off the table in our universe" with a citation (poor scientist's click-bait 🥲).
