Excited to announce our new review: Beyond the Human Genome Project: The Age of Complete Human Genome Sequences and Pangenome References. w/ Benedict Paten Rajiv McCoy Karen Miga Eimear Kenny et al. annualreviews.org/content/journa…
Our review paper on 'Genome assembly in the telomere-to-telomere era' published online in Nature Reviews Genetics. It amazes me how much assembly has progressed in the past four years – often ~100X improvement in contiguity and base accuracy and with haplotypes and hard regions resolved!
Delighted to announce my friends and I are organising a 'Human Pangenome Variability' symposium at the #SMBE2024 in Puerto Vallarta 🇲🇽. We have two excellent invited speakers Arang Rhie and Erik Garrison. Submit your abstract by March 15th! All info at smbe2024.org
Memphis Pangenomics days, 2024 edition! Pangenome Workshop (May 18-19), Conference (May 20), & Biohackathon (May 21-22). pangenome.github.io/MemPanG24/ #Pangenomics #Bioinformatics #MemPanG24
Preprint on Exploring gene content with pangenome gene graphs: arxiv.org/abs/2402.16185. It describes pangene for building gene graphs and for calling gene-level variations which can be found at pangene.bioinweb.org.
Pleasant collaboration with Maximillian Marin and Maha Farhat.
#Pangenome graphs improve the analysis of SVs for rare genetic diseases. Our new study is out!
Great collaboration with the lab of Tomi Pastinen and congrats to Cristian Groza @[email protected] for the amazing work!
