Excited to release FastOMA, a rewrite of OMA orthology algorithm that scales linearly, while maintaining OMA’s high accuracy. FastOMA can process all >2000 eukaryotic UniProt ref proteomes within 24 hours. Try it out github.com/DessimozLab/FastO…

Could you envision a future where inferring #orthology for thousands of species becomes possible?!
The future is already here and I'll be presenting FastOMA in #ISMBECCB2023 in Lyon!
See you in EvolCompGen @EvolComp on Thursday 27th at 15:30!

Bioinformatics can address these challenges! At SIB, we have researchers on it (e.g. Daniele Silvestro @unifr & @rmwaterhouse @unil), an environmental working group, and we are now looking for a *Director for Environmental Bioinformatics*. Apply or share! apply.refline.ch/499599/0280…

Co-lead authors @cdessimoz and @sedlazeck go #behindthepaper on a method to build phylogenetic trees directly from raw reads, bypassing time-consuming steps such as genome assembly. Plus: what Read2Tree has in common with the song "Smoke on the Water" go.nature.com/3KAZcz0

Super happy that the Read2Tree paper is now out at @NatureBiotech—the centrepiece of @ddylus’s postdoc and a wonderful collaboration with @sedlazeck. Key contributions by @SinaMajidian and @AdrianAltenhoff too. nature.com/articles/s41587-0…

My favourite application of Read2Tree is depicted below, where it correctly resolves *on the same tree* very different Coronaviridae samples (from mink and bat), as well as minute differences among variants of SARS-CoV-2. Check out biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/… x.com/sedlazeck/status/15167…

Genome annotation quality affects so many things we do. Our brilliant Yannis Nevers @Why_NeverS devised a tool to assess proteomes—quick and easy. It reports not only *missing* but also *dubious* content!

A🧵 - Serving on many panels & commissions, I realize the good will to help women & minorities in science. But are extra programs for women or temporary solutions the best we can do? In my opinion, not really. Instead, we need to focus more on 𝘂𝗻𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘀𝗰𝗶𝗼𝘂𝘀 𝗯𝗶𝗮𝘀. 1/X
