Soviet Stories: Babushka Nina's Wartime Childhood Three hundred Rubles separated life from death in Soviet Russia

At 3, she fled Hitler's invasion by train. By 8, she'd lost her baby sister and mother.

Our founder @olgabot.bsky.social shares her grandmother's haunting story of survival in the Soviet Union during WWII.

Building Better Genomics Tools Together Returning home to a community of genomics tool builders at the 2025 Nextflow Summit in Boston

What invisible magic πŸͺ„ keeps Biotech running? @nextflow.io! Without , a global community of pipeline builders, 99% of #genomics research would be stalled by reinventing the wheel.

Write-up of the super fun #Nextflow Summit hosted by @seqera.io in Boston!

@olgabot.bsky.social, CEO & Founder at @seanome.bsky.social, just gave an insightful talk on her vision to create the best protein annotator for any organism using @nf-co.re, supporting efforts to better understand global biodiversity through large-scale sequencing. 🌍🧬

Really happy to get stuck in to the #Nextflow #Podcast again for 2025! πŸŽ™οΈπŸŽ‰

First episode is with @olgabot.bsky.social, we chat about just how little we really know about proteins out in the natural environment.

See below for links + writeup + transcript, listen on YouTube, Spotify, Apple Podcasts 🎧

Manubot - Manuscripts, open and automated A tool set and workflow for scholarly publishing that is open, collaborative, continuous, automated, reproducible, and free.

#Academic friends, what's the current best practices for writing openly available papers? Is Manubot (manubot.org) still the best thing? Living Papers (idl.uw.edu/living-paper...) looks cool but seems fairly new and untested

πŸ’ͺ Career milestone achieved: First podcast appearance!

So grateful to Rob Kalwarowsky for the opportunity to share my vision of @seanome.bsky.social as building open genomics tools to unlock access to 43 billion molecular solutions from #ocean #biodiversity when we've only catalogued 8,000 🀯

Plant and Animal Genomes (PAG) 32 Conference Recap Genomes rule! Especially when they're not from humans ;)

Seanome's first conference #PAG32 is in the books! We dove into #genome annotation, #biodiversity #sequencing, and feeding the world. Our founder + CEO @olgabot.bsky.social presented a talk and poster on annotating proteins of unknown function. Catch the recap here! https://buff.ly/3CfKxYY

It's not fair ... imaging is inherently cool looking. With #genomics, the best we have are sequence logos

Had so much fun learning about bird genomics, what the "RIO" movie got right, and how mammals have model organism #privilege (haha) from Taylor Haines (UChicago/Field Museum) at @nanoporetech.com's ORG.one session #PAG32

Loved this awesome talk by Daniel Chaves about biodiversity and conservation genomics in Ecuador (performed *in-country* -- providing opportunities for local scientists) with
@nanoporetech.com's ORG.one program at #PAG32! Here are some photos
