Advancements in Nanopore Sequencing for Microbial Genomics

I continued watching the “Enhanced microbial profiling and metagenomics with nanopore sequencing” webinar. The second speaker was Steven Batinovic, a Field Application Scientist with Oxford Nanopore Technologies (ONT). The title of their session was “What you’re missing matters: delivering the future of microbial genomics with Oxford Nanopore.” Batinovic started by listing the microbiology and infectious […]

Nanopore NO-MISS Workflow for Bacterial Genomes

We are going to use the Nanopore NO-MISS workflow. It will be used to sequence several microbial isolates. This is part of the Portable Genome Sequencing course. In preparation, this London Calling 2024 session seemed useful. Alex Trotter, Development Scientist, and Chris Alder, Bioinformatician, are both at Oxford Nanopore Technologies. They presented “How to sequence […]

Sequencing Phage-Resistant Mutants

Anika Kinkhabwala, a Genomics Manager with EpiBiome, presented at the 2017 Nanopore Community Meeting on “Understanding phage-bacterial host interactions for smarter therapeutics.” They spoke about the trends of antimicrobial resistance. EpiBiome is working with phages. Kinkhabwala noted that phages are very specific and recognize cells. Phage research has been happening since the 1920s. EpiBiome uses […]
