Hi, in this last post of the year I would like to share that this week we have been training in bioinformatics with a group of 23 students enrolled at the International Master in Plant Genetics, Genomics and Breeding, organized by CIHEAM Zaragoza, as we do every two years in Zaragoza. This time the students hail from Lebanon, Morocco, Canada, Tunisia, Ghana, Senegal, Egypt, Algeria, Turkiye, Chile and Spain.
We had a great cast of local and international experts (Rubén Sancho, Ricardo Ramírez-González, Aleena Mushtaq, Tatiana Gurbich and Germana Baldi), and the support of Joaquín Balduque.
You can check the teaching materials we used at https://eead-csic-compbio.github.io/bioinformatics
I take this chance to wish you a good break and a happy new year,
Bruno
PS If you're thinking about presents, how about the PanOryza paper, 5 years in the making? https://genome.cshlp.org/content/early/2025/12/11/gr.280790.125
