I work on the Semantic Scholar academic search engine, and wanted to let people know about a blog post we just put up where we combed through 7 million biomed papers and found the most-mentioned GitHub repos. The top one was Sickle, and 14 out of the top 15 were bioinformatics (the 15th was Keras, a general deep learning library). Enjoy!

Thanks for sharing! Interesting project. -
Thanks SES! Also do you have any suggestions about the best ways to let people know about the blog? We're mostly just a bunch of computer scientists at Semantic Scholar so we don't know the field well - I literally found this forum by googling around. But if the post is worthwhile for bioinformatics specialists I would really love to spread it around a bit more. Thanks!!Comment

Tumors contain complex mixtures of cell populations that evolve in response to treatment and host-specific factors. Tissue biopsies provide only static snapshots of a tumor’s state. But what if we could follow that evolution over time using a minimally invasive technique?
Liquid biopsies can detect tumor-derived material circulating in the bloodstream, providing a way to study treatment response, detect emerging resistance, and discover new biomarkers. Circulating...10-14-2026, 09:55 AM -
Researchers using sequencing and genomics tools often have to make trade-offs. They can choose between speed or scale, short reads or long-range information, or targeted panels or a view of the whole transcriptome. New technologies that have been released this year are built to address those tough choices.
We asked six companies the same four questions to learn about their latest products. The new technologies bring a lot to the table, including rethinking sequencing...
