So the Supreme Court won’t allow states to regulate guns but WILL allow states to regulate a woman’s body?! Complete BS!! #RoeVsWade
So, to sum up the Supreme Court’s week: life begins at conception and ends in a mass shooting.
@AmyVJennison It's really unfortunate that these sessions weren't available to remote attendees, especially given how expensive the registration was! Just the plenaries (live) and pre-recorded breakout session talks. I would have really loved to see these! @CDGN_Australia @_PHAA_
Going to IMMEM in Bath in September? Why don't you join us for the 8th Microbial Bioinformatics Hackathon just beforehand? Places are limited. Sign-up: tinyurl.com/microbinfiehac… More info: github.com/MicroBinfie/Mi…
@ThomasHoufek @tanyagolubchik @CathyYoung63 Victoria is a different state in Australia, which had an outbreak at the time dominated by one genomic lineage. Throughout much of the pandemic, travel between states was restricted to reduce spread.

@bioinformer yes, the 454/SOLiD was data from ~2010 that took a long time to disambiguate enough to publish because the genome was such a puzzle. lf only nanopore was readily available at the time… (Also, note that there is PacBio and Illumina data in this paper too!)
