TL;DR: It is shown how the popular workflow management system Snakemake can be used to guarantee reproducibility, and how it enables an ergonomic, combined, unified representation of all steps involved in data analysis, ranging from raw data processing, to quality control and fine-grained, interactive exploration and plotting of final results.

TL;DR: Chiron is reported, the first deep learning model to achieve end-to-end basecalling and directly translate the raw signal to DNA sequence without the error-prone segmentation step.

TL;DR: The ability of Mykrobe-based DST to guide personalized therapeutic regimen design in the context of complex drug susceptibility profiles is measured, showing 94% concordance of implied regimen with that driven by phenotypic DST, higher than all other benchmarked tools.

TL;DR: The MinION as mentioned in this paper is a pocket-sized device that can sequence genetic information on-the-go and can be used to detect bacterial species present in rivers, which has been used to monitor water quality in remote areas.

TL;DR: A fundamental requirement for many applications in genomics is the sequencing of genetic material (DNA/RNA), and different sequencing technologies exist, but all aim to accurately reproduce the sequence of nucleotides in the genetic material under investigation.
