- by /u/axolotl50I want to start a discussion about something that keeps happening to me with RNA-seq datasets (bulk, single-cell, spatial, whatever). One of the basic principles of this kind of research is that raw data should be openly available, both for reproducibility and so others can reuse it for different purposes. I get that human data comes with ethical and privacy restrictions, that's fair. But for animal model studies there's really no good reason to keep raw data hidden. Lately I keep running into the same pattern over and over: The "upon request" ghosting. Papers say raw data is "available upon […]
- by /u/Feeling-Progress8762I'm about to begin an MSc in Human Genomics, and before classes start, I've been thinking less about what to study and more about how to approach the next two years. My goal isn't simply to earn good grades. I want to leave my master's with a deep understanding of genetics and genomics, the ability to critically read and evaluate scientific literature, strong analytical thinking, and a skill set that prepares me for meaningful research. One thing I've noticed is that it's easy to fall into the trap of collecting textbooks, online courses, programming languages, and certifications without a coherent […]
- by /u/nobonezonelewisBuilt this over a health hackathon this weekend. Upload your 23andMe raw data (or use the sample file below if you don't have one) and it checks a few well-established pharmacogenomic markers against meds like codeine, warfarin, and clopidogrel; explaining in plain English how your genetics might affect how they work, sourced from real CPIC clinical guidelines. **Please note:** this is an educational prototype, not medical advice. The genetic analysis is simplified. Always talk to your doctor or pharmacist before acting on anything medication-related. Would love feedback on: * Is the explanation actually clear? * Is this interesting/useful to you […]

- by /u/Crimson_AvenueSurvey Link Hello all! As you might be aware, there has been very little research into direct-to-consumer DNA ancestry testing and psychological wellbeing outcomes. This novel research aims to help us better understand the psychological significance of DTC Ancestry testing results. This study is being conducted under the supervision of Dr Janine Lurie from the Psychology Discipline within the Institute of Health and Wellbeing at Federation University (Melbourne, Australia). This study will also form the basis of the research dissertation requirement within the Bachelor of Psychological Science (Honours) course for student researchers Charity Marisa and Stefan Redpath. This study has […]
- How do you keep raw DNA useful for longevity work without uploading the whole file to a third party?by /u/Homebuild777submitted by /u/Homebuild777 [link] [comments]
- by /u/Both-Inspector7987I’m a Russian student living in a small town in Turkey called Alanya. I am genuinely interested in genomics and am good at chemistry and math. Since I will be applying to a university next year I need an achievement that will help me get accepted. My English level is ielts 8.0-8.5 based on practice tests but I have yet to do the official ielts this summer submitted by /u/Both-Inspector7987 [link] [comments]
- by /u/Possible_Oil_2594Hi everyone, I’m an incoming masters student. I’m working with environmental DNA (eDNA) samples and I’m trying to detect certain algal species. I’ve been using universal 18S primers, and they’re good at helping me know how diverse the water I sampled from is, but I was wondering if I could use a more targeted primer, and if I can design a targeted primer from 18s dataset? My current idea is to align multiple 18S sequences from my algae of interest and closely related species, and then identify regions that are conserved within my algae of interest but differ from other […]

- by /u/No_Engineering1886The premise: most people who’ve done DNA testing end up with a raw file they can’t use, lab results in a portal they can’t interpret, and a health history nobody’s connecting to either. We’re building a platform that takes whole-genome sequencing, your labs, and your history and pulls them into one picture using a systems biology approach — pathways, not isolated SNPs. We’re running a short market validation survey to pressure-test whether this is actually a problem worth solving and what people would want out of it. Takes a few minutes: 👉 https://survey.ravelgenetics.com More about what we’re building: ravelgenetics.com Happy […]
