This paper develops a metagenomic framework for detecting Listeria monocytogenes in food environments, showing that direct metagenomics captures more strain diversity than culture-based methods.

The paper creates the first global, spatially-explicit map of soil organic carbon storage in tidal marshes using environmental data and a new global extent map, estimating total global SOC stock at 1.44 Pg C.

The paper reports chromosome-level genome assemblies of two sea anemones and finds conserved chromosomal blocks across cnidarians and bilaterians, but loss of microsynteny in Hox and NK clusters.

This paper introduces BOSS-RUNS, a framework for dynamic nanopore sequencing that adapts in real-time to maximize information gain and reduce coverage bias.

The paper introduces phastSim, a tool for efficiently simulating sequence evolution on large phylogenetic trees, particularly for SARS-CoV-2-like datasets.

The paper identifies lab-specific recurrent mutations in SARS-CoV-2 sequences that affect phylogenetic inference and proposes tools to improve sequence quality and phylogeny comparison.

This paper introduces SID, a computational method that extends light-field microscopy to enable high-speed volumetric Ca2+ imaging in scattering mammalian tissue.
