Joined February 2011
At @ELIXIREurope's 2024 BioHackathon, we co-led work to improve how the metagenomics community can use RO-Crates to collectively describe and analyse more datasets, more efficiently. Our preprint envisions this as a federated microbiome analysis service:

MGnify is also live on @bluesky 🦋 https://t.co/nbk8QHqHA4 We will continue to post on both X and bluesky, and we look forward to engaging with you on your preferred platform.
We are very pleased to announce that we are now also live on @bluesky 🦋 Follow us and join our growing bioinformatics community as we are exploring the opportunities this platform has to offer. https://t.co/K4a5O93OEP

Join @vagkaratzas on the 13th of November for a webinar: how our MGnify Proteins resource helps with exploration of the metagenomics sequence space. He'll demo newly released ways to query the dataset, and MGnifams - a new set of protein families derived from it.
We have a number of exciting webinars over the next month, which will go into more depth about several @emblebi resources including @uniprot @MGnifyDB @ebi_jdispatcher. You can also explore mouse phenotyping data with the @impc Find out more: https://t.co/3rVKMr1p8m

Take a sneak peek into some of the work done by the MGnify team as our coordinator Lorna Richardson talks about the exciting world of the microbiome data!
Did you know that almost everything has a microbiome? 🦠 Lorna Richardson, our Coordinator for Microbiome Resources, discusses the world of microbiomes and her fascination for uncovering new things hidden within them. https://t.co/rsEfxPFDxz

Plastic pollution is an environmental challenge. However, nature is creating its own solutions, such as plastic-eating bacteria. Our researchers are using data from @TaraOcean_, @MGnifyDB and the #AlphaFold Database to find these enzymes in our oceans 🌊 https://t.co/l21wtnRTXY

Introducing the 😱OMG dataset and 🤖gLM2! OMG is a massive Open MetaGenomic corpus totaling 3.1Tbp of data and 3.3B proteins. We train gLM2, the first mixed-modality genomic language model, on OMG. 1/🧵 #BioML #AI4Science
We are thrilled to make the OMG dataset and gLM2 models available for the research community! Check out our latest preprint at https://t.co/rRmoN3NCbI (BioRxiv link coming soon)

MGnify Genomes’ #marine catalogue has been updated to v2, with 33x the number of genomes compared to v1. It covers nearly 9x more species, and brings new annotations from our updated pipeline. This work is part of @BlueRemediomics and @EU_AtlantECO. https://t.co/XUlE7j6pRT
