JGI Science @ the Lesher: “The Deal with Microbes” video

The May 9, 2011 event at the Lesher Center for the Arts in downtown Walnut Creek featured Jonathan Eisen and Rachel Mackelprang of DOE JGI, and Terry Hazen of Berkeley Lab. KTVU Health and Science Editor John Fowler served as panel moderator. (Note: There’s a short delay before the video starts at the 20-second mark.)… [Read More]

DOE JGI microbes on space shuttle Endeavour per Wired UK

there are also some other passengers on the shuttle, who might not receive the same media attention, sew-on patches and victory parades. Alongside the all-male crew of mission STS-134, six types of microorganism and a bobtail squid will strap in their seat-belts and head into space. Read more in Wired UK but head for the DOE… [Read More]

JGI Science @ the Lesher in The Oakland Tribune

The researchers, who will speak Monday evening at the Lesher Center for the Arts in Walnut Creek, are working with the Joint Genome Institute in Walnut Creek, a federal facility for genetic sequencing of microbes and other life-forms. The terrestrial ecosystem, meaning everything on land — from plants to soil and other geological features —… [Read More]

Single cell sequencing in Genome Technology

Using a single-cell approach developed by Ramunas Stepanauskas at the Bigelow Laboratory for Ocean Sciences in West Boothbay Harbor, Maine, a group of researchers aims to sequence 60 new marine bacterio-plankton in conjunction with the US Department of Energy’s Joint Genome Institute. That way, there will be better reference genomes available for researchers studying marine… [Read More]

Fungal Genomics blog re DOE JGI User Meeting

Personally, my favorite talk at the last 6th Annual DOE JGI Users Meeting at Walnut Creek was Rob Knight‘s contribution on ‘Spatially and Temporally Resolved Studies of the Human Microbiome‘. Rob was creative and integrative. Displaying the biogeography of bacterial communities on the human body using UniFrac and QUIME was astounding. Read more at the… [Read More]

Alfred University selected for DOE JGI Undergraduate Research Program in Microbial Genome Annotation

Alfred University is one of only 21 institutions in the country to be selected for the federal Joint Genome Institution (JGI) Undergraduate Research Program in Microbial Genome Collaboration. What that means, explains Jean Cardinale, professor of biology in the College of Liberal Arts & Sciences, is Alfred University students will have a unique opportunity to… [Read More]

Earth Microbiome Project in GenomeWeb

BGI will provide a range of services and support for the Earth Microbiome Project, an effort to sample, sequence, and analyze microbial communities from all over the globe. The multi-disciplinary EMP effort, the largest sequencing project yet undertaken, will conduct metagenomics studies of 200,000 samples of microbes from soil, air, sea, and freshwater systems from… [Read More]

DOE JGI’s Community Sequencing Program Project Call in GenomeWeb

The Department of Energy’s Joint Genome Institute said today that it is now accepting letters of intent from researchers seeking to use the genomics technologies available through its Community Sequencing Program (CSP). JGI’s sequencing program provides the scientific community with access to a range of high-throughput technologies for use in large-scale sequence-based genomic projects that… [Read More]
