Super excited to finally share this pre-print of our work demonstrating <30 minute sequencing-based somatic variant calls using @nanopore sequencers!

We had a need for speed. A (long) thread... 1/ Why focus on speed? Intraoperative sequencing. Being able to quickly (<1hr) identify actionable mutations *during surgery* has a host of amazing potential use-cases. Imagine generating a personalized molecular diagnostic during biopsy… 2/
