developed by WHO and a huge team of contributors - it was a pleasure to play a part in this
We are thrilled to have been involved in the development of new @who report on whole genome sequencing for surveillance of antimicrobial resistance who.int/publications/i/item/…

The Nextflow community is super friendly and #nfcamp19 had been a really fun (and educational) conference. Thanks everyone.

CGPS open day at the BDI Phenomenal work to make pathogen surveillance through genomic data! Using docker images to make real-time analysis and visualization. Q: very impressive! why doing this when you can get paid twice as much for industry? A: it’s a mission! Respect!

If you're a developer, come try the genomics world. It's got some really interesting challenges to solve and it's surprisingly easy to get started even if your last experience was a GCSE in biology 10+ before 🙄
A reminder! I'm recruiting for a C++ developer. If you are interested in new data structures and algorithms and applying them to real world problems, come work with us. No experience of genome graphs or biology needed.

Impressive demonstration of pathogen.watch by @rich_goater from @TheCGPS. Getting the conference AV team to run a python server to render HTML slides was another technical feat #ASMNGS18 – at Tysons Corner, VA

Enjoyed demoing @Pathogenwatch with @rich_goater today at #ASMNGS18. Thanks to @TimDallman @ClaireJenkins2 and @PHE_uk colleagues for public S Enteritidis PT 14b data allowing us to showcase the new clustering functionality. Clusters exactly match the clades in the ML phylogeny
