I’m excited to share I will be speaking at #ABRF2025’s Annual Meeting in Las Vegas in March. This meeting brings together scientific leaders of biomolecular and bioinformatics core facilities to discuss how we can maximize the impact these valuable groups have within their institutions.
We've been working really hard on the new Nextflow training materials and they've turned out great. Take advantage of them on your own or by doing a watch party with a group next week during our Nextflow training week. 🚀
🚀 Next week is #Nextflow #Training Week! We’ve got fresh new material ✨ including “Hello Nextflow”, premiering on the @nextflow.io YouTube channel 🎬 Got questions? The #Nextflow #Ambassadors are ready, standing-by on the Community Forum all week 💬 Sign up here: community.seqera.io/t/nextflow-t...
I'm doing a webinar next week about instrument-to-analysis automation of bioinformatics data processing!
Just as robotics revolutionized wet lab experiments, automation is transforming bioinformatics. 💻 Join us next week as we demonstrate how to automate and scale event-driven bioinformatics workflows using @nextflow.io and Seqera. 🧵 👉 Register now: hubs.la/Q0375dwt0

I'm attending SLAS! Come find me at our booth if you want to chat about anything Nextflow-related. I'll also be presenting a tutorial about setting up event-driven bioinformatics automation using Nextflow and Seqera Platform. I hope to see some of you there!
Heading to SLAS2025 in San Diego? ✨ Stop by Seqera’s booth #2850 for live demos, expert chats, and a chance to win AirPods!
One of my favorite talks at the @nextflow.io summit was @kenibrewer.bsky.social's talk on how to NOT contribute to nf-core (using nf-core in your organization). He wrote a nice post on the @nf-co.re blog on building an nf-core style modules library for your organization seqera.io/blog/buildin...
Building an nf-core style modules library for your organization | Seqera
If you would like to bring nf-core’s approach to enabling code within your own organization, you can!

I wrote a blog article about some of the best parts of nf-core's modular tooling and how to use it within your own organization. This was an extension of a talk I gave at the Nextflow Summit late last year. Read or watch however you prefer! www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pn_B...

✨ The @nf-co.re library (1400+ reusable modules, 100+ pipelines) makes bioinformatics workflows seamless and FAIR. Now, you can build a custom library for your organization! Learn how to modularize tools and future-proof your code 👇 hubs.la/Q031dvxx0 #Nextflow #nfcore
I didn't do any work directly on the OLE project during my time in the Breaker Lab, but I'm convinced that OLE is one of the most exciting bacterial #ncRNA to be discovered in recent years. Definitely check out this preprint if you'd like to see some really exciting RNA #cryoEM structures.
#ncRNA molecules are far stranger than you think. We propose that OLE RNA is bacteria's functional mimic of #mTOR, and the Das lab at Stanford proposes OLE RNA penetrates cell membranes! They also find that RNAs we called ROOL and GOLLD form 8-membered nanocages. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
Our next hackathon is rapidly approaching! 🚀 - March 24-26, 2025 - Online / local distributed sites For the distributed sites, WE NEED YOU! 🎯 If you're able to book a meeting room and host a local site, fill in the local site registration form: nf-co.re/events/2025/...

This is really cool, definitely worth a look for anyone running in environments where container security is of concern (which should be.. everywhere, right?) 📦🔒✨ The magic here for me is being able to automatically halt pipeline runs if new container CVEs are released. Totally hands off but safe.

Really exciting to see @valenceai.bsky.social open-sourcing a large, curated, FAIR resource for #QuantumMechanics datasets. Pre-computing missing values needed to train #ML models is also fantastic from a #GreenAlgorithms perspective. #OpenScience
We curated 40+ quantum mechanics datasets, covering 250+ quantum methods & 1.5B geometries. All of this is easily accessible through the OpenQDC library. 🧵 Harness the power of QM data with a single line of code: www.openqdc.io Read the blog: www.valencelabs.com/blog-posts/o...
I'm really sad to see Spring Science winding down. Having worked closely with them in a previous role during a software evaluation, I was incredibly impressed by the quality of their tooling and the caliber of their team. https://x.com/kamens/status/1858585137690407038
