Holly heck: $80 for a bacterial genome. If four scientists had a 15 min meeting to decide on IF they should send samples, $80 of wages would be used up. Get onto it. – at Melbourne, Victoria
Hello microbiologists! If you send us gDNA, you receive FASTQs in 2 weeks. $80 per bacterial genome, library prep included. For just a bit more $, we'll provide world-class bioinformatic analyses. Place an order directly at our website or ask how we can accelerate your research.

If I could, I'd have every college Bio1A student watch this superbly cogent explanation by Dr Cynthia Wolberger @CWolberger of what Rosalind Franklin's X-ray crystallographic dataset told us about DNA structure. Two minutes of magnificence. #WomenInSTEM youtube.com/watch?v=2tMuMRY1…

The US response to coronavirus is hilarious. I've had a dry cough and fever since Saturday. My HC provider tells me I am uneligible for testing because none of my friends have tested positive. How the f*ck are we supposed to know if none of us can access testing?

Very excited that the program @acritschristoph and I have worked on for years is public on @biorxiv and ready for use. InStrain (biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…) is a program for population genomic analysis from metagenomic data and rigorous detection of identical microbial strains(1/6)

USDA just released its staff relocation numbers and they’re not good. At ERS, 72 will relocate to KC and 99 declined. For NIFA, 73 will move and 151 refused. Staff who did not inform USDA of their plans were included among those who said no.
