Magna Labs

Are you attending ISMB2024 next month? Our Founder and CEO, Gwenn Berry, will be presenting at the ISMB Tech Track on Saturday, July 13, 2024, at 2:40 PM in Room 524c! You will see a live demo of Miqa, our biologist-friendly, cloud-enabled QA automation platform that continuously tests, monitors, and benchmarks your bioinformatic algorithms throughout all stages of development. Learn how to easily incorporate testing into your bioinformatic workflows, including: - Creating tests to validate your bioinformatic algorithms and pipelines - Automating software tests as frequently as every code change - Turning interactive QA test results into actionable data Don’t miss our Tech Track demo if you’re interested in boosting the quality of your bioinformatic tools and analyses! Also, feel free to connect with the Magna Labs team anytime if you want to learn more.

Our team had a blast at ASHG 2023 last week! We presented a poster of our bioinformatic test automation platform, Miqa, and had a chance to connect with many new & old friends at this five-day event. In case you missed us at ASHG, feel free to connect with us if you'd like to learn more about what we do! PS: We recently released a new version of Miqa (v1.3.0) with many new user-friendly features to make software testing easy and quick for bioinformatic teams.

Poster is up at ASHG! Will be presenting on behalf of Magna Labs tomorrow, Saturday, Nov 4 between 2:15-4:15pm! Come by and say hi at poster #3432 ☺️ #ashg2023 #ashg23 #bioinformatics #humangenetics #genomics

Venus Lau, PhD and Gwenn Berry are in DC to represent Magna Labs at ASHG 2023! 🧬 Don’t forget to check out our poster at PB3432: “Miqa: A no-code, automated bioinformatic QA platform to continuously improve the accuracy and reliability of computational tools used in clinical genomics.”

#SpookySeason is now in full effect and an integral part of daily life. Everyone notices the over-the-top decorators in their neighborhood that have robotic witches, fog machines, and glamorous light shows as a part of #Halloween festivities. In many cases, this involvement of #technology in fall festivities has become a must. If you are one of these people, I applaud you because you make this time extra special for everyone! But, I am sure that since you are such an exuberant autumn thrill seeker, you want to make sure that this technology is in working order and likely delve into some quality assurance whilst putting up your decorations. From the applications on our smartphones to complex systems used in critical sectors like orthopedic surgery to those creepy crawlies that jump out at trick-or-treaters on Halloween night, the quality of software directly impacts user experience, financial stability, and human lives. In this week's fall-themed blog post, I delve into some examples of software horror stories that could have been avoided with better #QualityAssurance testing. From code missing a hyphen resulting in a rocket ships self destruct sequence being used, to US Bank crediting 823 customers with $920 million dollars, these software horror stories serve as examples as to why thorough #QA testing matters! #software #bioinformatics #testing

The Magna Labs team is heading to ASHG 2023 in Washington, D.C. in early November! We will be presenting a poster on automated software testing for clinical genomics. Come chat with us and learn how you can improve the quality and troubleshoot bugs in your bioinformatic pipelines easily and frequently. We look forward to meeting you there! #ASHG23 #genomics #precisionmedicine #humangenetics #bioinformatics

We have been quietly working behind the scenes - taking in user feedback and implementing new improvements to make bioinformatic software testing more intuitive and enjoyable for our users. ✨ Excited to announce a new release of our bioinformatic test automation platform, Miqa v1.3.0, with major improvements and several new features! ✨ #bioinformatics #genomics #sequencing #softwaretesting #lifesciences
