Day 2: Highlights & Recap! |
||||||||||||||||||
ISMB/ECCB 2021 Day 2 picked up right were Day 1 left off. From Population scale analysis of human sequence data to Teaching the Instagram generation, it was another day filled with science and ideation. Today's ISCBdaily is filled with track highlights and tips to enhancing your virtual conference experience. Highlights |

Congratulations to all the ISCB Competition Winners: 2021 Wikipedia Winners |
||||||||||||||||||
At the conclusion of the Town Hall, participants enjoyed nine scientific tracks, and capping off day 2 was a robust and engaging keynote address on Cells in Space: Methods to investigate local neighborhoods of cells delivered by the ISCB Overton Prize Keynote, Barbara Engelhardt.![]() |

COSI Recaps Hitseq Our first Hitseq session on Sunday 25th featured new methods for the analysis of genomes and transcriptomes using long reads. The adaptive sampling during nanopore sequencing by Weilguny allows optimal usage of sequencing effort and we discovered how Bionano long reads can be used to study the coupling of promotor and enhancers methylation. The statistics of kmers was for the first time discussed, new graph-based methods to assembly and compact genomes were presented and we learnt about the structure of the centromere with Olga Kunyavskaya. Our highlight was our keynote Angela Brooks who presented her lab's effort to characterize isoform changes in cancer using Nanopore and the LRGASP challenge for evaluation of long-read RNA sequencing methods. EvolCompGen The first day of the Evolution and Comparative Genomics (EvolCompGen) COSI featured 8 talks. The talks illustrated the broad use of phylogenetic trees and networks, such as calibrated species tree inference, individual cell lineage reconstruction, or admixture event inference. Consistent with the zeitgeist, we also witnessed creative uses of machine learning approaches for comparative genomics analyses—to speed up orthology prediction, to detect copy number variation, and to infer co-evolving genes from phylogenetic profiling. We look forward to days 2 and 3 of EvolCompGen! Join us on Cafe Connect and our new community Slack (https://bit.ly/evolcompgen)! |
