Continuing with flow cell handling, the Human genome sequencing and analysis course from Nanopore Learning has a video entitled “A practical demonstration of priming and loading a flow cell.” In this short video, it is clear how the air pocket is removed with a P1000 set to 200 ul and slowly turned up to ~230. […]
Tonight I watched the MinKNOW GUI video from the Nanopore Learning course on Human Genome Sequencing and Analysis. Before watching these videos, I reviewed the Kit 14 videos. The MinKNOW graphical user interface (GUI) session was presented by Marta Verdugo from the Technical Services Team at Oxford Nanopore Technologies (ONT). The MinKNOW software is used […]
Marta Verdugo from Oxford Nanopore Technologies is the presenter for the Nanopore Learning sessions I watched tonight. The series of videos focused on MinKNOW and setting up an experiment. Verdugo provided an overview of the MinKNOW graphical user environment. In the second video of the series, they set up a control experiment. One experiment setup […]
Tonight I watched the “Welcome back to London Calling 2023” session. Rosemary Sinclair Dokos, Senior VP of Product & Programme Management at Oxford Nanopore Technologies (ONT) was the presenter and began day two of London Calling 2023 by talking about the journey of ONT. Sinclair Dokos found several parallels between the London Underground construction and […]
Akelia Wauchope-Odumbo, a Technical Services Manager – Americas with Oxford Nanopore Technologies (ONT), led a Masterclass at London Calling 2023. I watched the recording tonight, as the session title aligns with the course goals for the ONT-based lab I am designing: “How to get started with nanopore sequencing and plan your experiment.” The session started […]
Bryant Catano, a Product Support Scientist with Oxford Nanopore Technologies, led a Masterclass at London Calling 2023 entitled “How to get started with data analysis.” I have watched several of the other courses. This session focused on base calling, file formats, and MinKNOW and EPI2ME. Catano also discussed methylation tools. Catano started by emphasizing that […]
Adaptive sampling and real-time in silico enrichment have come up frequently in the last couple of months. I still haven’t used this feature and want to learn more. Tonight I watched the London Calling 2022 session by Alex Sneddon from the Australian National University entitled “RISER: real-time in silico enrichment of RNA species from nanopore […]
