She keeps perpetuating the crap that nobody can assemble the genomes from the raw seq data.

    Well - I don't think she should be shocked at all. [shared file(s): image.png]

    One additional proof that she's an idiot.

    I wonder if they mentioned the Broad Institute... I'm sure Lander would be happy about that.

    *She* may not be able to assemble the genomes because she has no idea what she's doing - however, other people (myself included) can. Easily. I even made the bam files publicly available for anybody to download.

    It sounds like the Broad needs to do an intervention. Just discuss what she is trying to achieve from this.

    Perhaps they could actually go through the data with her and give her the opportunity to try to persuade a few ofthem that know what they are doing. She won't be able to but perhaps they could bring her back from the brink, save her career (assuming they want to).
