Sorry, to be clear, the preprint is new - tool has been out for some time now and we've given it a thorough test-drive ourselves over the last few months
Happy to share that the paper describing Autocycler is now 100% up:

Myloasm, our long-read metagenome assembler, is now published! w/ @mgmarin.bsky.social and @lh3lh3.bsky.social
Very rewarding after > a year of development and countless hours thinking about assembly. Thanks to beta testers, Li lab, and reviewers who gave very helpful feedback.

The most satisfying genome assembler to run, ever. Huge appreciation for the team behind hifiasm 👏
We can’t wait to welcome you back to Old Billingsgate!

Nature Biotechnology - A long-read metagenome assembly method recovers circular and complete genomes better than existing tools.
New tool from Heng Li lab, offering amazing accuracy for SVs even in low complexity regions (also incredible SNPs/Indels for a deeplearning-free approach)
plsRT: Looking for a motivated postdoc!

ONT has a temporary bioinformatics position (8 months) open while I'm on maternity leave. Focus will be on microbial genomics but with opportunities to work on projects across the breadth of genomics!
