After months of work I'm so happy that our new preprint is online!
Profiling the expression of #transportome genes in #cancer: a systematic approach.
biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/20…
It's a bit unfinished but it's by design! We want and need #feedback from #bioinformatics and #physiology people to move forward. I've tried to follow #openscience principles, so the pipeline is completely autonomous, containerized and the code for the paper is there, included in the repos!
Profiling the Expression of Transportome Genes in cancer: A systematic approach
The transportome, the -omic layer encompassing all Ion Channels and Transporters (ICTs), is crucial for cell physiology. It is therefore reasonable to hypothesize a role of the transportome in disease, and in particular in cancer.bioRxiv
I wanted to share with you a new thing I'm working on: biohandbook.me/
It's a resource for practical best practices and tips to use in bioinformatic analyses. The idea is to work together to define standards and workflows and write them down. I love the open science, FAIR data and FAIR code philosophy but there are not many easy-to-use and direct resources around to actually tell you how to do things in the bioinformatics world.

Hello everyone!
I’m an associate prof at Virginia Tech studying viral diversity. Lately my group has been focusing on giant viruses, but we are also interested in other protist viruses, and the role of viral endogenization in host genome evolution.

Recently we have been examining the strange and complex genes encoded in giant virus genomes!

Studying some phage genes with scattered, partial alignments in varying degrees (40~+90%) of ID against closely related cousins (~93% ANI).
I'm thinking intragenic insertion/shuffling - but what kind of signals could I look for here? Common scars? Models to reference? #phage #bioinformatics #genomics

Every base everywhere all at once: pangenomics comes of age
Multi-genome assemblies called pangenomes can capture genetic diversity in a species, but researchers are still working out how best to build and explore them.Eisenstein, Michael

Studying gene family evolution strongly benefits from insightful visualisations. However, the ever-growing number of sequenced genomes is leading to increasingly larger gene families, which challenges existing gene tree visualisations.bioRxiv

When I started my lab a few years ago I started building up an in-house library for students. Two of the first books I bought are The Logic of Chance (Eugene Koonin) and The Origins of Genome Architecture (Michael Lynch). Both are remarkable books that discuss genomics in the context of microbial diversity and the tree of life.
What other genomics/evolution classics do people always keep around?
