For anyone migrating to BlueSky, I'm over there too: These days I'm posting to both Twitter and BlueSky when we put out new bioinformatics videos, but the migration has rapidly sped up the last few weeks, which is nice :)

Wow! Congrats PacBio! My PhD project with PacBio sequencing of a cancer cell line started only 10 years ago, and I've seen truly impressive improvements ever since: Longer reads, way lower costs, higher accuracy, and now it's not even the size of a fridge anymore!
✨It's here! Introducing Vega - the first benchtop long-read #sequencing system from #PacBio. With #Vega, industry-leading HiFi tech is now within reach. We could go on about why it's so remarkable, but Vega's impact speaks for itself. Learn more here: #ASHG24

I made this with Circa 😂 Yes, it supports emojis, and yes I manipulated data to make a spiderweb. Am I happy I spent an hour on this? Yes. Yes I am.

This is a total rewrite of my 2017 desktop software Circa. Now with 7 more years of experience, the help of @RobAboukhalil, and 3X the time investment to make it super user-friendly and powerful. See a comparison and demo here:

@MagnusPalmblad I'm open to reviewing any tools, they don't have to be old enough to even have citations yet. I will prioritize things that are fun to review and that people like other tool creators can learn something from, good or bad. I'll add Cytoscape to my list, thanks!
