RNA is far more than a messenger.
Its structures regulate, evolve, and catalyze — carrying out functions DNA and proteins cannot alone.
But predicting #RNA structure from sequence is still extremely difficult.
In our latest NAR paper, we present a way forward.

Come say hi if you're at #LorneGenome @GenomeConf, poster #234. Ask me about nanopore direct RNA sequencing, long non-coding RNA function and pediatric leukemias.

Second poster (#149) from @therealsmithlab tonight at #LorneGenome @GenomeConf by @BiologistQuirky: A comparative benchmarking of conserved RNA secondary structure prediction tools for the systematic annotation of non-coding RNAs. Ask Vanda about R-scape, SISSIz & lncRNAs

That's it! The end of another INCREDIBLE #NanoporeConf, London Calling! The science, vibe, and the people are simply the best! Each year is better than before. I had a blast talking about the #directRNA updates in a joint talk w/ @martinalexsmith. Next up, #RNA2023! @nanopore

@martinalexsmith at @NanoporeConf : “direct RNA is the cream of transcriptomics” 👌👌👌

An absolutely fabulous day at #nanoporeconf London Calling 2023- my highlight was the amazing Libby Snell and Martin Smith sharing their fresh data from our new direct RNA sequencing chemistry! This will be game changing! #RNA #vaccineQC #biomanufacturing lnkd.in/etQpswiE

Thrilled to announce our upcoming journal club, May 2, 15:30GMT.
@khorms57, postdoc in @genophoria lab at UCSF, will present results from their preprint on the discovery of RNA structural switches.

I love international conferences, especially playing "guess the presenter's country". Very 🇨🇦 as seen at #VIZBI.
(But really, great talk — thanks @martinalexsmith! Always cool to learn more about Nanopore methods.) – at Heidelberg, Germany

Introducing squigualiser, a powerful toolkit for visualising @nanopore raw signals! 🚀🔬
The following r10.4.1 signal-to-read alignment is from F5c's resquiggle.
It also supports RNA and move tables generated by basecallers. #Bioinformatics

I'm presenting on #RNA at the EMBO / 🐘[email protected] Visualizing Biological Data conference #VIZBI in Heidelberg (and virtual) late March.
Ich sehe dich dort!

It's again time to talk Canada. 🇨🇦
CS grad school and faculty app deadlines are coming up soon. If you are applying to the US, you should also be applying to Canada. The two are far more similar than different.
Ask me anything about Canada in this🧵, and I'll answer honestly.
