Extra-long tandem repeats (ETRs) such as centromeres and immunoglobulin loci are difficult to align. UniAligner is a computational method for efficiently and accurately aligning ETRs, facilitating analysis of their variation and evolution. @AndreyBzikadze nature.com/articles/s41592-0…

I'm so proud of the @IndigiData initiative. Since starting two summers ago, this workshop has skyrocketed to create timely and much-needed informatics and Indigenous data science workshops on topic areas of direct impact to Tribal Nations. Ahéhée' to everyone who make it happen!
Thank you all so much for your help in TWO @IndigiData #Indigenous #data #science workshops this summer! We focused on the topics of gene editing, metabarcoding, Indigenous data sovereignty, IP law, and data ethics on Shakopee Mdewakanton Sioux and Lummi lands. Until next year!

I would like to welcome Jen Troyer, Ph.D., in her new role as incoming Director of NHGRI’s Division of Extramural Operations. For years, Bettie Graham, Ph.D. – a legend @NIH and beyond! – has served in this position; she will be outgoing Director until she retires in late 2023.

🎉 Exciting news! Our lab's first publication in Genome Biology is out now! We've delved into the large-scale genomic differences between T2T-CHM13 and GRCh38, shedding light on their association with neurogenic disorders & the evolutionary history of the KLRC gene cluster. 🧬
