It’s #ChristmasEve! We hope that #genomics will help reintroduction efforts of the Water Vole, the UK’s fastest declining #mammal

Not a #ChristmasPudding, but another delicacy, the Summer Truffle. We have so much to learn from #fungi, read more about what they could teach us on #Day23 #25Genomes #AdventCalendar

The Small-Spotted Catshark has the largest of our #25Genomes (at 5.16Gb!), has a #sixthsense of electroreception, detecting electrical signals (such as beating hearts) of their prey

The Fen Raft Spider can walk on water, and is one of the UK’s rarest animals, needing clean, fresh water to survive. Read about this surprising species on our blog:

It’s Day 7 of #25Genomes #AdventCalendar! Grey squirrels have immune protection from a virus that threatens our native red squirrels. We hope #genomics can reveal how this protection works

We know very little about the cryptic Brown Trout, but #genomics could reveal some secrets about their migration patterns #25Genomes #AdventCalendar

Rather than #5goldrings, the Common #Starfish has five limbs that can regenerate, whose #genome may give us insight into #regenerativemedicine

Happy December! On Day 1 of our #25Genomes #AdventCalendar we look at the iconic Golden Eagle, the first genome sequenced in out 25 Genomes Project, with the aim of protecting and conserving them #Sanger25

Thrilled to announce an illustrated book to celebrate the #25genomes project and @sangerinstitute 25th anniversary! The grandest illustration project I have ever done. Such an honour to work here as an artist and a scientist with such fantastic colleagues. #sciart @wellcometrust
We’re looking forward to the Curious #Nature exhibition @WGCengage

… and to including the #25genomes in #Ensembl & @ensemblgenomes!

Scientist Dr Suzanne Williams thinks sequencing in #25genomes may uncover why the Baltic Clam has hidden colour https://t.co/CrFMQjZo47
Dr Nathan Kenny is championing the Naval Shipworm (Teredo navalis) for #25genomes find out more: https://t.co/7IE9ZNucsm
The Naval Shipworm eats only wood. Sequencing the genome could give scientists insight into how to make “biofuels” efficiently #25genomes
