How I Used Python to Stop Worrying & Love Emoji in Bioinformatics

YouTube

At #icg2023 in Melbourne this week, with both serious and not so serious posters.

Visit me at poster 253 and 254 any during the lunch breaks day!

I asked the Twitters this as well, but Bioinformatics Mastodon, what is your worst (best) sequencing quality control story? Looking for examples where something like FastQC has picked up an issue that changed the interpretation of results or saved a lot of spurious analysis. Want to include a real world example in a tutorial, so publicly accessible data preferred.
Please circulate widely! Appointments will be considered at the level of new group leader (Level C) through to experienced Associate Professor (Level D).

Not one but two Group Leader positions in Computational Biology opening up at Peter Mac!
