A very special day today, as I look back and remember our trepidation on how this crazy idea of a new pathogen database would go down. Would our work be for nought? But no! I'm so grateful that we've been able to make a big impact on sequence sharing! Here's to year 2! 🥂

🗓 Pathoplexus turns ONE! 🎂🎉 In the past year we’ve grown from 4 pathogens to a truly global, community-driven platform for transparent, equitable & impactful pathogen sequence sharing. 📰 Read the full update: pathoplexus.org/news/2025-08-2… 1/10
Interested to learn about how to run your own Loculus (the database code behind @pathoplexus)? 🤔🖥️ Sign up for the Loculus Tutorial on Mon 8 Sept at @BC2Conference in Basel, run by @ChaoranChen_ & Anya Parker! 🧬 Register: bc2.ch/registration-i… #bioinformatics #openScience
Honoured to be part of a video series by @todospelasaude about Bioinformatics! It's been wonderful to see more & more women come into Bioinf, as such an important & wide-ranging field - full of awesome & impactful projects! #womeninSTEM #bioinformatics linkedin.com/posts/institut…
Having quite a giggle over the apparent apocalypse predicted on Friday by @meteoblue, particularly in Boulder! Would love to hear what's up? 😁😅
🗓️As we close in on 11 months of Pathoplexus, we’re pleased to announce many new direct sequence uploads and some exciting new features that expand Pathoplexus’ utility! 📰 You can see our full News Item here: pathoplexus.org/news/2025-07-1… 1/9
📢News update from Pathoplexus! Unfortunately Twitter's login is currently broken so we can't post directly - please see our latest uploads & features on Bluesky & Mastodon or direct on our website! pathoplexus.org/news/2025-07-1… ☁️: bsky.app/profile/pathop… 🐘: mstdn.science/@pathoplexus/1…
Are you an excellent researcher in genomics of infectious diseases for intercellular pathogens (viruses, intercellular other pathogens)? The University of Geneva, Faculty of Medicine, is opening a very attractive chair of excellence in this field! jobs.unige.ch/www/wd_portal.…
Just a heartfelt appreciation tweet to all @pathoplexus devs. This young database is already extremely valuable and keeps me gazing at data for hours. 🧬 🦠 Thanks to @firefoxx66 for putting it on my radar at VGEB2024/Hinton.
I'm honoured to have been featured in @UniBasel 's UniNova magazine! 🙏🙌In my interview, I speak about the importance of @pathoplexus, what Enteroviruses can teach us, & the damage to science (& health) from the current US administration. [German] unibas.ch/de/Aktuell/Uni…
