We wrapped up #IMMEM XIV over the weekend and it was a fantastic success with over 250 participants from 35 countries. A big thank you to the organisers and specifically ESGEM our study group on epidemiological markers! The content will be available on ESCMID media soon.

Registered too late for a poster for @ESCMID #IMMEM #IMMEMXIV but happy to discuss SciCommander with anyone interested 😊 See: https://livesys.se/posts/rewrite-of-scicommander-in-go/

Captures provenance of ad-hoc commands while skipping already computed steps - "The benefits of a pipeline tool without the pipeline tool".

End goal is to integrate provenance tracking across pipeline tools and the inevitable ad-hoc analyses done on the results of the pipeline runs.

Come see my poster at #IMMEM XIV Poster 151.

🔬 QualiBact – provides robust, data-driven QC thresholds for 304 bacterial species, built from >2.4M assemblies (AllTheBacteria + RefSeq).
⚙️ SpecCheck – an open-source command-line tool that applies these standards using existing outputs (QUAST, CheckM, ARIBA, Sylph) to generate clean, reproducible QC reports.

We are on to day 3 of the #IMMEM conference in Porto after some great talks and the first poster session featuring the research that's being done by our community! Today we'll be covering environmental surveillance for #ID and #AMR and how best to share pathogen data. #IDsky #clinmicro
Day 1 of the #IMMEM XIV conference is in the books! Today we will cover implementation of genomics as it helps to support public health and inform on vaccine strategy as well as what’s new in bioinformatics. #MicrobialTyping #Genomics #clinmicro #IDSky
