    Hello from Thomas

    Hello there,
    I'm new here. I'm studying Biology at Wageningen University. Currently I'm working on a new idea for improving methylation sensitive AFLP (MSAP) using the complete Arabidopsis methylomes as published by Cokus et al and Lister et al. I've written some of my first algorithms that produce fasta-like files in which methylated cytosines are replaced by an 'X' and guanines opposite to a methylated crick strand 'C' replaced by a 'Y'. With those files i then perform in silico MSAP, for which I wrote a custom algorithm.

    If anyone is interested in this, had suggestions or questions about it, feel free to ask !

    Oh, and by the way, i should have studied bioinformatics. It's just amazing what you can do with a bit of programming :-)

    I'm curious what's happening around here, and hope I can contribute some day!

    Thomas

    16S/ITS Profiling vs. Shotgun Metagenomics: What Changes in Your Workflow?
    by SEQadmin2





    NGS has revolutionized clinical microbiology by offering new ways to identify and surveil pathogens without prior knowledge of the target. One popular approach is 16S rRNA and ITS amplicon sequencing, which targets specific microbial markers. But studies are increasingly incorporating shotgun metagenomics, a technique that sequences all DNA from a sample without targeting specific microbial markers. This approach allows more detailed taxonomic classification,...

    Multiomic Liquid Biopsy: What DNA/RNA Panels Reveal That DNA Alone Can’t
    by SEQadmin2



    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
