Got registration scholarship to Boston Bacterial Meeting 2026, woot!

Will be reporting a pretty exciting (for me at least) observation from Haloarchaea sequencing project I've been running since 2024. Hopefully I can find some collaborators - I've been running into walls.

Also glad that bacterial meeting's accepting archaea related abstracts too!

Happy to have made a small contribution for @GB13Faithless's paper. Hope this is just one of many examples in independent researcher collaboration with academic scientists!

#archaea folks, this pipeline rules for global baseline annotation of archaea

#Archaea & #microbiology folks - I'm curious. How do you feel about the dorado polish bacteria mode for your archaeal ONT long read assembled genomes? I know it holds up well with bacteria, but archaea's always been a bit funny.

Polypolish-pypolca combo is great, but they need short reads and I want to stick with long reads whenever I can (purely for logistic reasons)

Me : I am capable of practical, efficient thoughts and actions

Also me : I suddenly remembered Methanosarcina (I studied biology almost 20 years ago). Let's read about it in detail

How can #extremophilic #archaea make proteins in almost boiling water?

At #Biochemistry2026, Schraga Schwartz gave an inspiring lecture about the many interesting #RNA modifications these organisms are using and how they can be studied.

The third day of #Biochemistry2026 is off to a great start with an inspiring lecture by Schraga Schwartz. He talked about "RNA at the Edge: Extreme Biology as a Lens on RNA Modification Principles".
