Big, beautiful trees!! SMART-PTA for whole-genome+transcriptome on thousand of single cells from the normal human esophagus 🤯 Massively scaling up the power of scWGS to build deep phylogenies and chart somatic evolution from birth throughout life. https://t.co/pciw5yME0x

Our latest work is out in Nature today. In this paper, we introduce an improved version of NanoSeq, a duplex sequencing protocol with <5 errors per billion bp in single DNA molecules, and use it to study the oral somatic mutation landscape in >1000 people.

The latest hifiasm can directly assemble standard @nanopore simplex R10 reads, without HERRO correction or other preprocessing, to phased contigs of contiguity comparable to HiFi assembly. Like before, you can further add ultra-long, Hi-C or trio data for better assembly.
Exciting news! The latest hifiasm release from @ChengChhy and @lh3lh3 adds beta support for @nanopore simplex R10 reads. Initial results look very promising. 🚀 Check it out:

Hot off the press!! 🔥 Check out our work on the origins and impact of ecDNA. This was a team effort involving multiple collaborators as one of a three part series on ecDNA in @Nature
ecDNA are rogue genetic material that amplify genes, contribute to treatment resistance and drive genomic heterogeneity. We report on the Origins and impact of extrachromosomal DNA today in @Nature

Which method works better for single-cell Whole Genome Amplification? By comparing the 3 methods, we found that the answer depends on what matters most in each downstream application. A big thanks to @proukakis, @sedlazeck, @zeunas, @ASAP_Research, @QSBrainBank , @UCLIoN
longest amplicobs, useful for long read sequencing (watch this space!). Great lab work by @Kalef_Ezra and bionformatic guidance by @sedlazeck @zeunas, funded by @ASAP_Research , tissue from @QSBrainBank at @UCLIoN
