Happy Earth Day! NHGRI researchers are continuing to sequence complete genomes from all kinds of species, such as hummingbirds, yellowfin tuna and great white sharks to lesser known animals like tire track eels and blunt-snouted clingfish (coolest name ever?).

In 2023 African BioGenome Project African BioGenome Project organised 23 biodiversity genomics & bioinformatics hands-on workshops across Africa using 100 % local resources. This 10 mins video explains some of benefits of sequencing African species on-the-ground: youtube.com/watch?v=oiIpkU…

There are multiple ways to join our PAG 31 / PAG Australia / PAG Asia #PAG31 workshop this Saturday 1030am PST: The missing components in genomics: Justice, Equity, Diversity, Inclusion + (JEDI+). In person, join us in Palm 5-6

Great to see the Possum genome out. Initial support for this work via PF2050, with some funding alignment via Biological Heritage and GenomicsAotearoa way, way back. Five years in the making, more in the planning with conversations started with Vertebrate Genomes Project (VGP) a decade ago…

Thank you for having us KQED Forum & Alexis C. Madrigal! It was great to share the opportunities in sequencing all life on earth, especially why including all, scientists & non-scientists, matters in this ambitious mission.

Super excited to announce our new VGP-ERGA-Galaxy pipeline for scalable, accessible, and reproducible reference genome assembly. In just a few clicks anyone anywhere can assemble their genome to VGP quality! Vertebrate Genomes Project (VGP) g European Reference Genome Atlas biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

A great collaboration with VGP Vertebrate Genomes Project (VGP) ERGA European Reference Genome Atlas & GALAXY Galaxy Project biorxiv.org/content/10.110… democratizing the #training and reference #genome assembly process!

Today we celebrate the international day for biological diversity!🌍
An opportunity to reflect on the importance of understanding and conserving #biodiversity at all levels: from #genes to whole #ecosystems .

Shameless plug! Have you used our software (MUMmer, Krona, Mash, Canu, Merqury, Verkko)? Or our reference genomes ( #T2T , Vertebrate Genomes Project (VGP), Human Pangenome Reference Consortium)? You can vote for us to win the Sammies People’s Choice Award! It's easy, just click here ➡️ servicetoamericamedals.org/peoples-choice…

So happy to share this honor with Sergey Koren and Arang Rhie. I've been working with Serge for 12 years, Arang for 6, and every single day has been a joy. Team up with wonderful people and you'll go far. Thanks to National Human Genome Research Institute for supporting us! 🌟

What does genomics have to do with conserving species and protecting earth's biodiversity? In fact, quite a bit. Explore this article featuring the incredible work of @GenomeArk as they strive to create high-quality genomes for many species. #EarthDay

Important read 👏👏👏

We want to thank our instructors Giulio Formenti Guido, TAs Linelle Marcella Sozzoni, invited speakers Aureliano Bombarely, NadolinAI, Sarah Pelan and all attendees of the Genome Assembly & Annotation course for making it a fantastic learning week.
