The 2nd Workshop of the Human RNome Project Consortium took place last week in sunny Toronto 🇨🇦 ☀️, and @clare-r.bsky.social from our team had the pleasure of attending and hearing about the fantastic work happening all over the globe on #RNA modifications.

New in Bambu-Pipe: batch effect correction now integrated into clustering for long-read single-cell & spatial RNA-seq Integrate samples across ONT & PacBio, combine 10x 3'/5' chemistries, and get clusters that reflect biology, not technical artifacts. github.com/GoekeLab/bambu-pipe

Two UMAP plots comparing ONT and PacBio long-read single-cell data before and after batch correction. Left panel (No Correction): ONT (red) and PacBio (cyan) cells form separate, non-overlapping clusters, indicating platform-driven grouping. Right panel (Batch Corrected): ONT and PacBio cells overlap within the same clusters, showing successful integration where cells group by cell type rather than sequencing platform.

The new long read cDNA kit by @nanoporetech.com is a major upgrade (and improvement!), substantially increasing read length, with a strong impact on transcript discovery and quantification. We @goekelab.bsky.social have tested this in the beta release, more updates soon #nanoporeconf
