Assemblathon 1 paper out, includes many #UCDavis folks, though @vsbuffalo name backwards

Quick one here. A new paper is out from many folks, including Aaron Darling from my lab as well as a few other UC Davis folks. It is a cool paper: Assemblathon 1: A competitive assessment of de novo short read assembly methods
One minor issue – seems they got Vince Buffalo‘s name backwards – he is listed as Buffalo Vince on the Genome Research page, though in the PDF they have his name correct. Will have to see what he has to say about that.

I am an evolutionary biologist and a Professor at U. C. Davis. (see my lab site here). My research focuses on the origin of novelty (how new processes and functions originate). To study this I focus on sequencing and analyzing genomes of organisms, especially microbes and using phylogenomic analysis
