Long reads @nanopore @PacBio can provide insights into epigenetics. We (@fuyilei96 @timp0) summarize the latest #Bioinformatics approaches to analyze methylation & why this matters! Out now @NatureRevGenet bit.ly/4cjxUtl @BCM_HGSC @bcmgenetics @RiceCompSci @JohnsHopkins
Why the long face? Are you longing to understand how long-read sequencing can stretch our knowledge of epigenetics even further? @smahtnetwork researcher Fritz Sedlazeck went to great lengths to read your minds to write this review about #bioinformatics methods @naturerevgenet!
🎈 Congratulations to SMaHT member Fritz Sedlazeck on his recent publication in @NatureRevGenet! The review highlights how long-read sequencing enhances our understanding of epigenetics through advanced #Bioinformatics methods for DNA methylation analysis.
