Xiao talking now about using Paraphase and HiFi data to resolve segmental duplications genome wide

It's official, @PacBio has launched a new benchtop sequencer!
Quick summary of the new Vega system:
- instrument = $169k
- consumables = $1100 per run
- output = 60 Gbp, 24 hr run time
This is the #HiFi sequencer #microbiology labs have been asking for.

I'm happy to announce that SVTopo, a new computational tool from PacBio (github.com/PacificBioscience…), is ready for you to try. SVTopo creates simple images so you can rapidly understand complex changes in genome structure. See me and learn more at ASHG 2024 in Denver, poster 1180W
We've been making steady usability updates to the sawfish SV caller thanks to user feedback, including a new feature to output all supporting reads for each SV. The latest binary, user guide, and (new) source code release are available on github here:

Whoa! “As an example of the value of this improved benchmark, we retrained DeepVariant using this data to reduce genotyping errors by ~34%.”

Very excited to share our work on building a benchmark of all classes of variation based on the large CEPH-1463 pedigree sequenced with all the technologies. A large team effort!

I am going on the faculty job market this year, so if your home department is starting a search, I'd love to hear about it. Thanks!

Don't miss out on this #metagenomics webinar next week!
@PacBio HiFi sequencing on Revio can be used to generate single-contig, complete MAGs from the most difficult sample type to assemble - soil.
Results for wetland and grassland soil shown here, from my talk at LAMG.
Unlock the complexities of soil communities with #HiFisequencing on #Revio. Discover how to obtain high-quality MAGs with more data and lower costs than ever before.

I'm happy to see sawfish now available for the community to use. Sawfish is another step towards high accuracy and consistent SV genotyping. Great work by Chris Saunders and many others.
Happy to introduce sawfish, a new HiFi structural variant caller emphasizing local haplotype modeling to improve SV representation and genotyping in both single and joint-sample analysis contexts: 1/n

Great sawfish clip and thanks for all your help too @zevkronenberg! ...also thanks to additional coauthors @jon_belyeu & @juniper_a_lake

Sawfish and usage documentation is available to download from github at the following site. We have several ongoing directions to further develop the method, so all feedback is greatly appreciated and can be incorporated into future feature planning.
