We’d like to (finally) have a meeting to update you on progress on the Plant-Microbial AWG collaborations. The meeting will be Tuesday, April 15th at 3PM GMT/11AM EDT/8AM PDT. We’ve made good progress on the roadmap manuscript, as well as our analyses of RNA-seq data from previous plant flight experiments. We’ll provide those updates, map out where help is needed for next steps, and try to set a more regular time to meet. If you can’t make this time but want to be part of these efforts, please msg me. We plan to record and have an AI transcript as well.
Cheers,
Ben
PS Hopefully I’m doing this right @rtscott2001 > Can I copy this topic/post to the Microbial AWG?
ust a quick reminder that we’ll have our update meeting this coming Tuesday, April 15th. It will be at 3PM GMT (11AM EDT, 8AM PDT). It’s on the AWG meeting calendar and Zoom link is above.
And here’s the agenda:
Quick update on analysis of Arabidopsis (meta) transcriptomes using “leftovers” approach (being led by Zerrin Kim) - Richard Barker and Ben Sikes
Update on co-analysis of plant and microbe transciptomic data from prior flights by Emmanuel Gonzalez + Nick Brereton
Ongoing analyses and collection of strain genomes
Update on plant-microbe direction manuscript. Current draft is here: Loading Google Docs
Last couple sections that need content; vetting by NASA-knowledgable folks
Journal targets for submission and timeline
Authorship + how to contribute at this stage
