It's been a while, but version 2.31.0 of #bedtools is out!
This includes a new "summary" command for basic stats, sanity checks, and QC on interval files.
It also supports gzipped FASTA files. Thanks to @brent_p, @38, @jomarnz for their contributions. https://bedtools.readthedocs.io/en/latest/content/tools/summary.html

A Ukrainian PhD student here searching for a place abroad to finish the experimental part of her PhD thesis. She's specialized in MolBiol, RNA-biology, neuroscience; but she is willing to adjust the topic according to the hosting lab.
Does anyone have a lead? https://twitter.com/OctavianAnima/status/1642864908491423744

It is finally out (in a peer-reviewed journal)! Our contribution to teasing out human placental gene regulation by #ERVs. Led by the awesome @neverlethetruth.

This cutie is the Antarctic krill. Its genome is 48 Gb, 15x the human genome! 92% repeats! CMC/CACTA elements, an enigmatic and relatively rare group of DNA transposons in other animals, alone account for 42%!! Why these and why in krill?…🤔😯🤯

I want to talk today about a methodological issue in #genomics research that has been around a long time but is still a major problem.
The reason is that today I reviewed another manuscript that has this exact problem.

🌿👾 #plant #transposon friends: I'm looking for a good dataset to benchmark a program detecting insertion polymorphisms. Ideally the samples would have different type of raw sequencing (long+short reads), and a trusted list of known insertion polymorphisms. Open to collab! 🤝
