CNRS researcher in bioinformatics
Lille, France (Bonsai team).
I develop efficient computational methods to analyze massive sequencing data, creating scalable tools for genomics, transcriptomics, and metagenomics.

Golden thread about asking the real questions about GenAI
The recently-released rammap from Jeremy Wang and @lh3lh3.bsky.social is, indeed, looking like a strong contender to replace minimap2-rs in oarfish!
Glad to announce that our new long-read metagenomic SNP caller, SNooPy, is published in NAR! Existing long-read SNP callers are not designed for metagenomic data, check out our new solution

One of the things that's gonna get real weird in the next ten years is the Internet optimizing itself not for human buyers, but for ai agents tasked w/recommending products to buyers. I'm convinced it's going to involve a lot of bizarre uncanny Ai-only weird SEO stuff. www.cnet.com/tech/service...
This tangentially ties into another point: the fact that LLM code assistants can exist at all means we have all collectively spent *way* too much time solving the same problems over and over
TFW you're reading a brand new preprint, and you know it's about to get real (arxiv.org/pdf/2606.03929).

Cloudflare CEO Matthew Prince says he didn't expect this milestone until 2027.
New blog post!
I analyse the new [email protected] basecalling model from @nanoporetech.com and discuss the conspicuous lack of a new sup model:

T2T assemblies for nearly all major Y chromosome haplogroups courtesy of a collab between @humanpangenome.bsky.social and HGSVC! What was once the hardest human chromosome to finish can now be routinely assembled thanks to ONT + Verkko www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...
Happy to see that K2Rmini was recommended today by PCI Mathematical & Computational Biology.
"quickly evaluate whether an arbitrary sequence has a number of k-mer [of interest] matches above or below a threshold."

The video recordings of the legend 2025 conference held last December on machine learning for evolutionary genomics are now online !
Feel free to have a look if you missed the conference.
