+This week, Phil Ewels (@ewels) will present [RustQC](https://github.com/seqeralabs/RustQC), an AI assisted rewrite of multiple rnaseq related QC tools in Rust. This rewrite follows the principles for rewriting bioinformatics tools with AI, detailed in the [rewrites.bio](https://rewrites.bio/) manifesto that Phil will also discuss.
