✅ ACTION ITEM ✅ The National Science Foundation is under attack. Trump’s budget is moving to dismantle one of the great engines of U.S. innovation, education, and discovery. The fight to save NSF is on—and now there’s a new home base to join the front lines (🧵 1/3): www.savensf.com

One concern I've heard for long-read #metagenomic sequencing is the amount of DNA needed. New Ampli-Fi protocol from #PacBio now allows as little as 1ng input for library prep - that's kind of a game changer for low biomass samples.
