I continued watching a longer session from Oxford Nanopore Technologies (ONT) summer programming tonight. “The era of complete genomes, at any scale” was the title of a session Cora Vaher gave. They talked about how methylation can be detected without additional library preparation. Haplotype-specific methylation could be very useful in learning about genetic diseases. Vaher shared a […]
We have been using EPI2ME a lot lately and want to learn more about the new features. Tonight, I watched Sirisha Hesketh, Clinical Bioinformatician from Oxford Nanopore Technologies, present “EPI2ME everywhere” at London Calling 2024. They began with an overview of the workflows available: seventeen ranging from base calling and alignment to single-cell genomics. An […]
Tonight I watched the EPI2ME updates from Matt Parker, Associate Director of Clinical Bioinformatics at Oxford Nanopore Technologies. We will use EPI2ME next week as part of the Portable Genome Sequencing course, focusing on bacterial genome assembly and metagenomics. This Nanopore Community Meeting Houston update started with a high-energy EPI2ME video highlighting updates to compute […]
Matt Parker, the Associate Director for Clinical Bioinformatics at Oxford Nanopore Technologies, spoke at the Nanopore Community Meeting in Houston about updates to EPI2ME. The session started with a new video about EPI2ME, highlighting the intuitive interface, real-time data, and cloud or local analyses. Parker said you can take a MinION and laptop into the […]
