🧬 New preprint! We clustered 5.6 million bacterial genomes into genomically cohesive units (GCUs) 500× faster than existing tools. (In just 14 hours, 16.5 GB RAM using 48 CPUs). 🦠🐙Meet gemsparcl 💎✨!

New blog post!
I analyse the new [email protected] basecalling model from @nanoporetech.com and discuss the conspicuous lack of a new sup model:

Excited to have Alex Crits Christoph @acritschristoph.bsky.social join the lab today as a staff scientist!
I had a hunch it was good time to find an experienced computational microbiologist to join the lab, but still feel very lucky to have him joining us. Looking forward to cool science!
