Benchmarking normalisation methods for differential binding analysis in CUT&RUN https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.64898/2026.05.24.727463v1
New paper from the lab! Spoiler: data driven methods performed better for normalisation than spike in CUT&RUN (again). Congratulations especially to Krutika Ambani for most of the work here now embarking on a PhD.

Medical research matters! Australian scientists are making potentially lifesaving breakthroughs into the molecular mechanisms of brain tumours - discoveries with potential for commercialisation and global uptake. We should support them better via the MRFF and NHMRC.
Mark’s deadly cancer will come back. Now scientists know why
When Mark Norris finished his cancer treatment, there was nothing doctors could do except wait for it to return. The father of two says that’s not good enough.

That’s a wrap! Huge thank you to everyone who joined us for #ABACBS2025 & a big shout-out to the Adelaide bioinfo community who worked their butts off. Couldn’t have asked for a better crew or a better venue than Adelaide Oval. @wessidepraxis.bsky.social @linsalrob.bsky.social
Come say hi at my poster (#49, Wednesday session) to learn how we’re building a healthy atlas of pediatric airways… how not to lose your mind while wrangling half a million cells… or just to have a chat about cricket! #ABACBS2025
Chelsea Mayoh at #abacbs2025: "If you're not using RNA-seq in your precision medicine program you're probably missing stuff"! Great to see @aliciao.bsky.social lab tools MINTIE, ALLsorts and TALLsorts making an appearance 🎉
Learn how to ATAClone on Friday 29 Nov 9.00 am @ Room 506, Festival Tower github.com/TrigosTeam/A... #ABACBS2025 @lachlancain.bsky.social @abacbs.bsky.social @annatrigos.bsky.social
@lonsbio.bsky.social you absolutely deserve the "Nick Wong" community building award! Thanks for being the social glue and for your wise words! #ABACBS2025 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Congrats @lonsbio.bsky.social on being awarded the inaugural @abacbs.bsky.social Nick Wong Community Building Award at #abacbs2025! @hdashnow.bsky.social was absolutely right - you really are the Ted Lasso of Australian bioinformatics and computational biology 😃

10 incredible years of bioinformatics and computational biology community building by @abacbs.bsky.social - enjoying catching up with old friends at #abacbs2025 🥂 @aliciao.bsky.social @nadia-davidson.bsky.social @shazanfar.bsky.social @ellispatrick.bsky.social Jean Yang Belinda Phipson Milica Ng
The gang back together at #ABACBS2025 @jovmaksimovic.bsky.social @nadia-davidson.bsky.social and @belphip.bsky.social
Wonderful talk by @jovmaksimovic.bsky.social on detecting gene fusions at single-cell resolution using custom probes #Flexify #ABACBS2025
Awesome talk by @jovmaksimovic.bsky.social one detecting fusions in single cells with probes designed for 10X Flex. If I do say so myself 😜 #ABACBS2025
@jovmaksimovic.bsky.social taking us through cancer fusions at single-cell resolution with Flexify: automated Flex fusion probe design. @abacbs.bsky.social #ABACBS2025
@jovmaksimovic.bsky.social – On how to “easily“ detect fusions in single-cells. 1. Identify fusions with bulk RNA seq. 2. Use Flexify to design fusion detection probes for 10x Flex. 3. Detect fusions and their expression in each cell with scRNA-seq. #abacbs2025
