How we measure 'reads'
A 'read' is counted each time someone views a publication summary (such as the title, abstract, and list of authors), clicks on a figure, or views or downloads the full-text. Learn more

Nanopore direct RNA sequencing (dRNA-seq) enables unique insights into (epi-)transcriptomics. However, applications are currently limited by the lack of accurate and cost-effective sample multiplexing. We introduce WarpDemuX, an ultra-fast and highly accurate adapter-barcoding and demultiplexing approach. WarpDemuX enhances speed and accuracy by fa...

Background
Direct RNA sequencing (dRNA-seq) on the Oxford Nanopore Technologies (ONT) platforms can produce reads covering up to full-length gene transcripts, while containing decipherable information about RNA base modifications and poly-A tail lengths. Although many published studies have been expanding the potential of dRNA-seq, its sequencing a...
Motivation: Direct RNA sequencing (dRNA-seq) on the Oxford Nanopore Technology platforms has become increasingly popular in recent years, with promising outlook to transform the field of epitranscriptomics. Reads produced from dRNA-seq can cover up to full-length gene transcripts while containing decipherable information about RNA base modification...
Non-pharmaceutical interventions (NPIs) remain decisive tools to contain SARS-CoV-2. Strategies that combine NPIs with testing may improve efficacy and shorten quarantine durations.
We develop a stochastic within-host model of SARS-CoV-2 that captures temporal changes in test sensitivities, incubation- and infectious periods. We use the model to si...
While large-scale vaccination campaigns against SARS-CoV-2 are rolled out at the time of writing, non-pharmaceutical interventions (NPIs), including the isolation of infected individuals, and quarantine of exposed individuals remain central measures to contain the spread of SARS-CoV-2. Strategies that combine NPIs with innovative SARS-CoV-2 testing...
