🧧🧧🧧🧧 So another exciting finding for the weekend before I go on vacation. *FFPE Ligation Sequencing for ALL!* For a long while it was thought that ligation (i.e. native DNA) sequencing on @nanoporetech.com was difficult, if not impossible.

Amazing bit of cleaning tech this morning @unibirmingham.bsky.social - our robot overlords have clearly arrived 😂

🚨🚨JOB ALERT We’ve got a new job going developing AI algorithms for molecular classification of H&E images of ovarian cancer. Led by Elaine Leung you’ll get to learn cutting edge techniques and travel overseas More details here: edzz.fa.em3.oraclecloud.com/hcmUI/Candid...

Want to join us in Birmingham?! In a few months the University of Birmingham will be re-opening its 125th Anniversary Chair and Fellows Scheme. One of our strengths currently in the lab is organoid modelling, genomic medicine and Nanopore sequencing, especially in cancer.

Really delighted to show our first attempts at growing Wilms Tumour organoids (left) and the kidney (right) from paediatric patients by @maxpedsurg.bsky.social ,Zeynep Kaya and Kaitlin Marley. Funding from @littleprincesses.bsky.social Project here: www.littleprincesses.org.uk/news/innovat...

Trying to improve somatic cancer genomic testing in the NHS at the moment feels like an Esherian/Penrose staircase. Always falling. Immensely painful. It is almost as if we want to go backwards as a healthcare system.

We’ve been doing it for a little while anyway 😉but we thought we should make it official - we are now certified service providers for @nanoporetech.com sequencing For service work contact Genomics Birmingham - lnkd.in/e_nmh2Ki For research and collaboration enquiries - email me!
