Dear all,
It is my great pleasure to tell you that the Geuvadis RNAseq paper has
been accepted in Nature!
Needless to say, I'm extremely happy to finally be at this point, and to
be able to thank all of you for your contributions. We wouldn't be here
without the hard work from all of you, the huge pool of scientific
expertise and insight, and the collaborative spirit that we've had in
this project. Please pass my thanks also to technicians and other
members of your lab who contributed to this work.
It was a really enjoyable experience to work with all of you, and I hope
that this will inspire many other collaborations amongst us. I had a lot
of fun and I hope you did too! But the most important thing is that I
think we can all be proud of the outcome. It's a great paper and a great
data set that make an important contribution to the field.
We're now going through some final formatting edits, and we'll be in
touch about press releases, publication and embargo dates, etc. when we
know more. Feel free to share the news with close colleagues, but please
don't advertise this yet in the public domain such as social media. The
companions papers are in a good shape too: we're waiting for the final
confirmation of the acceptance of the QC paper in Nature Biotechnology
so more good news will follow, and the splicing paper is under review in
Genome Research.
best regards,
Tuuli

Dear all
I just submitted the revised version of the QC paper. Attached the most important files.
An important last minute addition, with possible consequences for current sequencing practice in our laboratories, is the relatively poor representation of exons with >65% in laboratories CNAG, MPIMG, and HMGU (Suppl Figure 6B). This is likely an effect of thermocyclers with high ramp speed, which are actually too fast for proper melting of high GC products. See also Aird et al. Genome Biol 2011.
Thank you very much for all your contributions and let's hope for the best
Best wishes
Peter
Dear all,
Ten fellowships are available for *PhD students *to attend the Genomic
Medicine in the Mediterranean Conference in Crete Oct 2-5, 2013, which
is co-sponsored by the GEUVADIS project.
The fellowships cover all local expenses (registration, accommodation,
meals, local transport) and the fellows only have to cover flights to
Heraklion airport.
Priority will be given to GEUVADIS partner students.
You can find information about the conference at: www.gm2conferences.com
If you are interested please contact me directly to apply _by MAY 3, 2013_.
Selection will be first-come first-serve for all Geuvadis partners but
requires an explicit commitment of the student to attend.
After that date the fellowships will open to non-Geuvadis students too.
Please distribute as necessary.
Thanks,
Manolis

Dear all,
We have revised the Geuvadis RNA-seq paper for Nature; please find the
paper and the response letter enclosed. If you have any comments, please
send them *by Saturday* - apologies for the tight schedule, we are
planning to submit this on Monday. Thanks to all of you who helped me
with the revisions.
As many of you know, the editor adviced us to make the paper more
focused on the key messages, and as a consequence we had to drop some of
the analyses - fusion transcripts, soft splicing and RNA editing. I hope
that those results can be published in some other context later on. To
strengthen the analysis of regulatory variants, I did some additional
analysis on regulatory variants underlying allele-specific expression
signals, but otherwise the changes in the paper are relatively small. I
think that we were able to respond to all the comments really well, and
hopefully the editor and reviewers agree.
best regards,
Tuuli
