2:16pm February 14th 2018 via Hootsuite

1:06pm February 14th 2018 via Hootsuite
Levy: Efficiency was 'strong, a little better with HMW gDNA; Did downsampling to 4, 6, 9 and 15GB datasets. A way to show complexity #AGBT18
1:05pm February 14th 2018 via Hootsuite

1:02pm February 14th 2018 via Hootsuite
