Missed our first Genomic Horizons webinar of 2026?
Dr. Bede Constantinides kicked off the year with a compelling session titled “Practical panhuman host sequence depletion for responsible data sharing.”
In this webinar, he unpacked the risks and trade-offs involved in removing human sequences from microbial sequencing data, and demonstrated practical approaches (including the use of ‘Deacon’) to support responsible, secure genomic data analysis and sharing.
It was a thoughtful and highly practical discussion on balancing data utility with ethical responsibility in pathogen genomics.
If you missed it — or would simply like to revisit the discussion — you can watch the full recording here:
