Non-amplified eDNA Sequencing

Reindert Nijland from the Wageningen University in the Netherlands presented at London Calling 2022 about “Endangered European sturgeon detection through non-amplified eDNA sequencing.” They presented work on obtaining the full genome of this critically endangered big fish. The Netherlands has sturgeon species that are non-indigenous released from ponds. They have complex life cycles and are […]

Ultra-rapid Nanopore Sequencing for Diagnosis

Tonight I watched John E. Gorzynski and Sneha D. Goenka from Stanford University present at London Calling 2022. Their fifteen-minute presentation entitled “Accelerated identification of disease-causing variants with ultra-rapid nanopore genome sequencing” was packed with information even though it was an informal session. This was an in-person session last year. Gorzynski is a postdoctoral scholar […]

SLOW5 for Indigenous Genomics

Andre Reis from the Garvan Institute of Medical Research in Australia presented at the Nanopore Community Meeting 2022 on “A long-read nanopore sequencing platform for Indigenous genomics.” Their efforts to increase efforts to increase representation of Indigenous people in Australia. Reis spoke about indigenous Australians and the lack of representation in current catalogues. Thus, there […]
