Genomic data in the All of Us Research Program | Nature (www.nature.com)
he All of Us Research Program is a longitudinal cohort study aiming to enrol a diverse group of at least one million individuals across the USA to accelerate biomedical research and improve human health
All of Us identified more than 1 billion genetic variants, including more than 275 million previously unreported genetic variants, more than 3.9 million of which had coding consequences. Leveraging linkage between genomic data and the longitudinal electronic health record, we evaluated 3,724 genetic variants associated with 117 diseases and found high replication rates across both participants of European ancestry and participants of African ancestry.

actually he's quite far off. See our detailed alignment of human and chimp in: https://t.co/iOtRucvUCr. TL;DR human and chimp are 98% identical across 96% of their length. More detail in attached screenshot pic.twitter.com/mXkqNYF2yw

Announcing uv: an extremely fast Python package installer and resolver, written in Rust.
uv is designed as a drop-in alternative to pip, pip-tools, and virtualenv.
With a warm cache, uv installs are near-instant. Here, it's > 75x faster than pip and pip-tools. pic.twitter.com/wrvaudUn6i

A tale of two misassemblies | Ryan Wick’s bioinformatics blog (rrwick.github.io)
[...] we saw two interesting misassemblies that I describe here. Both cases occurred with ONT-only assemblies
