- The strchive.org paper is out!! The paper describes STRchive as a resource to improve the diagnosis of tandem repeat disorders, then goes beyond it to consider what can be learned about childhood onset and population prevalence of these diseases. 🖥️ 🧬 link.springer.com/article/10.1...
- I am excited to present STRchive.org v2! A resource for tandem repeats associated with Mendelian disease. We have resigned the website, added new loci, streamlined our data for easier reuse, added more detailed citations, presented population frequency data and more!
- Credit to Laurel Hiatt for driving this, @vincerubinetti.bsky.social for beautiful new website design, and Akshay Avvaru for data vis. Thanks to the continued support of Ben Weisburd @egor-dolzhenko.bsky.social @heidirehm.bsky.social @aaronquinlan.bsky.social. It's a pleasure working with you all!

- Enjoying all the tandem repeat fun at #ASHG24? The Dashnow lab is hiring software developer/data analyst roles. Apply by Nov 13 for best consideration dashnowlab.org 🖥️ 🧬
- Very cool new work by @htanudisastro.bsky.social on the contribution of tandem repeat variants to gene expression in single cells! Check it out.
- I am currently recruiting a computational postdoc in my lab at CU dashnowlab.org The candidate would develop and use computational genomics methods to understand the genetic underpinnings of rare diseases and increase diagnoses. Pay starts at $70k for recent PhD grads

- Our paper was published today in Nature Biotech! www.nature.com/articles/s41... Tandem Repeat Genotyping Tool (TRGT) is a new method for genotyping tandem repeats in PacBio HiFi long reads. We used some nice algorithmic strategies to improve genotyping accuracy. 🖥️ 🧬
