#sedadna — Public Fediverse posts

New article in IA69 by Vince Gaffney and colleagues on the Neolithic pit structure at #Durrington Walls Henge includes new #OSL dates and #sedaDNA environmental studies. Results indicate a cohesive pit structure at a massive scale.

My first blog post as a #Nextflow ambassador is now live!

I summarise my experience of co-taught at the '‘Hands-on bioinformatics for ancient environmental DNA" at the ACAD, University of Adelaide in 🇦🇺. I focussed on why Nextflow and in particular which best-practise nf-core pipelines are suitable for ancient #metagenomics #eDNA research!

🚨 Preprint alert 🚨

Interested in the rationale and functionality behind a high quality #nextflow pipeline for simultaneous #TaxonomicClassification for shotgun #metagenomics (e.g. #microbiome , #pathogen , #clinicalmetagenomics , #sedaDNA ), that on top allows simultaneous profiling against multiple databases for all tools in the pipeline?

Please read and give feedback 👇

Computational resource guidance coming in a few of months 👍 b4 submitting to @PeerCommunityIn 😉

🦠🧬🦴 Do you work in #metagenomics (#microbiomes, #MicrobialGenomics #sedaDNA) and/or #aDNA, with interest in #bioinformatics , #OpenScience and curiosity about ancient metagenomes?

😢 The @spaam_community are struggling to find reviewers for our preprint: https://f1000research.com/articles/12-926/v1

🙏 If you would have the time to help us and be willing to review a small python tool facilitating access to public data, please
feel contact me https://www.jafy.eu/ so I can pass on your details to the journal. Thx!

Industrialization changed Italy’s Bagnoli Bay. Analyzing the DNA that was trapped in sediment, known as sedaDNA, offers a record of what was lost—and a clue as to how to get it back.

Throwback to a small expedition to the Dachstein Mountains (Austrian #Alps) this September! Together with @Iza_bai and great students we obtained sediment and water samples from a small glacial lake at 2060 m a.s.l. - the first analyses with the new material are already in full swing!
