🚀 Dive into Genomic Admixture and SNPs 🔬 We're continuing our beginner-friendly lecture series on #Genomics! In this episode, we explore genomic admixture—a fascinating consequence of crossbreeding between populations. Learn the basics, including: 🔹 What is genomic admixture? 🔹 Its genetic background and interpretation 🔹 Practical applications, including ancestry-informative SNPs (#SNP) Whether you're new to genomics or brushing up on foundational concepts, this video will provide valuable insights into understanding and working with SNP data in genomics research. #GenomicsEducation #GenomicAdmixture #SNPData #Ancestry Check out the video to expand your genomics knowledge! 🎥 https://lnkd.in/d_S5rkuF

Understanding #LD is essential for grasping many key concepts in genomics. This video shows the practical computation of LD with #PLINK in three parts: 1) general options to calculate LD using PLINK 2) visualization of LD decay (using #rstats #tidyverse) 3) an example of LD pruning #genetics #genomics #linkage https://lnkd.in/d6x-QdE

I'm thrilled to announce that I've successfully completed the 'Bioinformatics Course 201' at Genomac Institute Inc. This in-depth course took me on a journey through the principles of DNA sequencing, sequence data management, and protein translation. I also gained hands-on experience in comparative genomics, analyzing and comparing genomes from different species, and identifying conserved regions and evolutionary changes. The course further explored whole genome alignment, the link between genomic rearrangement and diseases, and whole genome phylogenetics. To put my skills to the test, I completed a practical assignment that reinforced my understanding of the course material. #Bioinformatics #Genomachub #Dnasequencing #Genomics #comparativegenomics

Enhancing genomic data analysis with the genotype representation graphs The exponential growth of genomic datasets, such as the UK Biobank's release of 200,000 phased genomes, has highlighted the need for efficient data structures to manage and analyze biobank-scale genomic information. Traditional tabular formats like VCF and BGEN, while widely used, face scalability challenges due to their large storage requirements and high computational overhead during analysis. A recent study by Drew DeHaas, Ziqing Pan & Xinzhu Wei introduces the Genotype Representation Graph (GRG), a hierarchical graph-based data structure designed to encode phased whole-genome polymorphisms compactly while maintaining computational efficiency. By leveraging shared genetic variants across samples, the GRG compresses 200,000 genomes to just 5–26 gigabytes per chromosome, significantly reducing storage demands. Its graph traversal capabilities enable efficient algorithms for tasks such as allele frequency computation and genome-wide association studies (GWAS). The GRG combines scalability and computational efficiency, outperforming traditional tabular formats and even advanced compressed formats like XSI and Savvy in large-scale analyses. Its ability to retain data in memory facilitates rapid iterative computations, making it a transformative tool for population genetics, biobank-scale research, and beyond.
