Timo Saratto (Moilanen)

Nursing-home residents’ skin is a source of transmitted harmful and drug-resistant microbes nature.com/articles/d4158…

New name, same old me! Me and my wife decided to take Saratto, from her father’s side, as our new surname. The wedding itself was already in September, we just were a bit slow with the name change 🎉

New case study: Ultrafast outbreak detection with Solu & Nanopore sequencing 🚀 Scientists from from Awanui Labs Wellington and ESR developed a breakthrough outbreak detection model using Solu and Nanopore sequencing. Link in reply!

New in our latest beta release: Instantly look up what the literature says about any gene or mutation, right inside Solu!

📌 The need for speed: ultra-rapid high-resolution outbreak analysis in a front-line hospital microbiology laboratory | @medrxivpreprint See how hospital labs can analyse outbreaks fast - no on-site #Bioinformatics needed, cutting delays doi: doi.org/10.1101/2025.0…

Brilliant new preprint! Genomic outbreak analysis in minutes instead of weeks, by using the Solu Platform. This is exactly what we built the platform for: fast onsite genomic analysis, paired with data sharing to national public health experts. The future is here!

NEW Publication🥳 Solu enables easy genome-scale pathogen surveillance! Solu is a real-time #pathogen surveillance platform. It automatically assembles, characterizes & compares WGS data—no bioinformatics expertise is required. 🔗: tinyurl.com/y8p24uya

Interested in bacterial/fungal sequencing for epidemiology? We’re offering a special service, which includes sequencing, DNA extraction and analysis with Solu platform for €95/sample. Results within a week! Limited batch of 100 samples. solu-bio.notion.site/18561663af8180…

Our publication on Solu Platform is out in @BMCBioinfo. So excited for this! Thank you @jlsteenwyk, Irene Ortega-Sanz and Solu colleagues for the collab!

👉Participate in ECMM Candida IV 🌎wide study on candidemia caused by non-albicans Candida spp. Requirement: clinical data & isolate (not req for C.auris) Reward: Reimbursement & Authorship Observation period: 04/2024 - 09/2025 Interested? 📧 [email protected]

So here is some feedback on my first tests with Logan Search. 🧵

We now automatically concatenate reads belonging to the same sample – simply upload your files and let the platform do the work.

Our work on genetic determinants for S. aureus fitness in milk is now available online. The study also exemplifies how milk can modulate antibiotic susceptibility. Congrats @MaritaMarli and thanks to all collaborators (@DPorcellato @JWVeening @vincentdebakker @liuxuescience)!

Today the government announced a new partnership with Oxford Nanopore designed to enable genomics-based research and bring the benefits of innovative technologies to patients. We are proud to be part of it. Find out more: ow.ly/XtoA50U0fQi @nanopore
