DADA2
by Shane Powell 22 Jan '21

22 Jan '21

Hi everyone, Is anyone using the DADA2 script for processing MiSeq data? I have a student who is running into problems and having someone else who has used it and has another perspective on it to talk to would be very helpful. I am also new to DADA... Please let me know if you have time to chat to Bri and I'll ask her to contact you directly. Thanks, Shane University of Tasmania Electronic Communications Policy (December, 2014).

FW: Postdoc opening! Bayesian evolutionary algorithms for the analysis of B cell receptor (i.e. antibody) sequence lineages
by Jeremy Sumner 21 Jan '21

21 Jan '21

Dear all, See below for a post-doc opportunity with Erick Matsen’s group. Cheers Jeremy From: Erick Matsen <ematsen(a)gmail.com> Sent: Wednesday, 20 January 2021 8:35 AM To: Erick Matsen <ematsen(a)gmail.com> Subject: Postdoc opening! Bayesian evolutionary algorithms for the analysis of B cell receptor (i.e. antibody) sequence lineages Dear Colleague-- I hope you are doing as well as could be hoped for given the circumstances, and I apologize for the mass email. We have a postdoc opening! Here's the headline: The goal of our project is to develop, implement, and apply Bayesian evolutionary algorithms for the analysis of B cell receptor sequence lineages. These lineages are important for understanding the events leading to the development of high-affinity antibodies. We are motivated to: * use a Bayesian approach to appropriately account for uncertainty in phylogenetic inferences (which is considerable in this case) * fit and use complex models of somatic hypermutation and selection that violate the commonly-applied IID assumption in phylogenetics * develop efficient, elegant, and robust implementations of the newly developed methodology and make them available in open-source software for the community. Here's the full description: https://matsen.fredhutch.org/general/2021/01/15/bcell-postdoc.html<https://protect-au.mimecast.com/s/GOAmCjZryVCq99xoCWC4yf?domain=matsen.fred…> If you know any trainees who might be interested in working in this area, please let me know! I also note that we may have a slot to work on variational Bayes approaches to phylogenetics, but that will be dependent on funding. Nevertheless, if you know someone who would be interested in helping build fundamentally new approaches to Bayesian phylogenetics, I'd be happy to get to know them! Members of underrepresented groups are especially encouraged to apply. Thank you, Erick -- Frederick "Erick" Matsen (he/him) Professor, Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center http://matsen.fredhutch.org/<https://protect-au.mimecast.com/s/Z-9UCk8vzVfQNNJ2tVM9zk?domain=matsen.fred…> University of Tasmania Electronic Communications Policy (December, 2014).
