Hi @CllrScottArthur. We’re in an intertwined climate-nature crisis—and need bold, new, integrated legislation to tackle it. Please support #CANBill and secure a liveable future by entering the CAN Bill in the private members’ bill ballot https://t.co/zQn2JSenyr @ZeroHour_UK

We introduce an ARG-inspired data structure Genotype Representation Graph (GRG) to enable lossless data compression, efficient computation through graph traversal. Developed a fast inference method. Cost ~80 GBP to convert 350TB VCF (200,000 UKBiobank WGS) into 160 GB GRG.

A wonderful writeup on our study also out today in @guardian @guardianeco, it was great to talk to @pgreenfielduk about butterfly genomics and why sequencing their genomes is so vital!

We have three positions open in the Tree of Life Assembly team @sangerinstitute @SangerToL working on biodiversity genome assembly for @darwintreelife, @erga_biodiv, @genomeark, @EBPgenome.

"Polyploidy is widespread in Microsporidia" is now out in @JournalSpectrum @ASMicrobiology!! A huge thank you to @marakat, @blaxterlab, and @KamilSJaron for all their help and their time. Check it out on: https://t.co/9wwbik68KH

Mani Bhavan in Mumbai was Gandhi's headquarters for almost 2 decades (1917-34) and from where he launched most of his anti British satyagrahas 💪

Saw a copy of this letter at Mani Bhavan yesterday. I knew Gandhi had written (unsuccessfully) to Hitler before Poland, but I had no idea that this was the tone

As it's Friday, I'm asking all my followers to please retweet this photo of a grumpy Robin on a rock. 🙏♥️ Help my little bird account to beat the algorithm and be seen.🙏 Thank you so much!🥰 #FridayRetweetPlease 😊 ♥️

Apparently in India personal college admission counsellors charge up to 15 lakhs (18,000 USD!!) per student JUST to help them write essays/forms I'm trying to convince my cousin's son that it's not necessary to employ these "counsellors" But maybe my knowledge bis out of date?

Q for people who teach undergrads, have college admission age children, or just know stuff worldwide: Is a professional college admission counsellor now necessary for helping you prepare your college admission?

Why are people still flying to climate conferences by private jet? London to @COP28_UAE in Dubai, by private jet travel is 11x more polluting than a commercial flight. 315 private jets went to COP27 in Egypt more going to Dubai - why! #ClimateChange https://t.co/0qGy4CrBgU

I have avoided using this platform for politics / current affairs and have tried to restrict myself to science, but with current events, this is no longer possible. Here are some thoughts about what is happening. It is long and rambling. Apologies. 1/24

If you have missed #BGA23 sessions, you can find the them here ( https://t.co/gsK6VJzQ6F) BGA23 is a series of free, online-only, short, interactive sessions on how to use the #bioinformatics tools that support the Earth Biogenome Project @BGAcademy23 @EarthBioGenome 🌎

OK #Science twitter - do your thing! We have written an open letter to Conservatives strongly opposing 'kicking woke ideology out of science' rhetoric & show they do not represent science. Please distribute widely! Screen readable text + signature form at https://t.co/H7rNzb0wGh

Old cartoon fit for the present.

🚨“No research on a dead planet” I’m thrilled to announce @LauraLoHorn, @PHellermann, @CharlieJGardner & my new paper in @FrontEducation. Why, despite acknowledging the urgency of climate emergency, have universities yet to respond adequately to the crisis? A short🧵

The climate activists have been right all along
