This will go down in history as one of science and medical research's greatest achievements. Perhaps the most impressive. I put together a preliminary timeline of some key milestones to show how several years of work were compressed into months.

Oded Rechavi Cold emailed a prof telling him "I will kill bacteria in the name of our Lord Darwin". Next thing I know, I have to rush to move to another country to start a PhD. From nerd to formal nerd. Still have the email.

@_DaniBeck Academic Chatter™ Semantic Scholar. It acts like a recommendation engine, based on previous papers you have "pinned". You can define several "lists" and each will get their own recommendations. It also has a feature to summarize papers in a few lines (i.e. make a TL;DR) semanticscholar.org

@_DaniBeck Academic Chatter™ Elicit Ask a research question, and it will provide references that relate to that question. Each reference is accompanied by an AI-generated summary of what that paper has to say about that question. elicit.org

It doesn't make any sense and sounds unnatural but according to quantum physics you can teach and do research at the same time, as long as you are not observed

Do you want to get into scRNA-seq but are lost in the sea of never-ending papers? No worries, I got you covered. Here's a list of the best review that have help me understand the core concepts of the technique, analysis and interpretation:🧵

ATP synthase spins about 230 times per second at room temperature. At 45°C, it can rotate 650 times per second (🔥). A typical jet engine spins 150 times per second. Biological engineering > mechanical engineering.

If you're ever frustrated with an experiment, consider the example of the Queensland Pitch Drop Experiment begun in 1927, the longest running experiment... and I want to really make this land for you... STILL HAS NOT technically yielded a single direct observation as of 2022.

Thank you everyone who came by my poster to talk about my PhD work! Looking forward to keeping in touch with like-minded people!!

Come say hi if you're at #LorneGenome LorneGenomeConferenc, poster #234. Ask me about nanopore direct RNA sequencing, long non-coding RNA function and pediatric leukemias.

Long read transcriptome annotations doing your head in 🤯? Check out our deep dive into benchmarking isoform-assembly software using different Oxford Nanopore chemistries with Lexogen and sequin RNA spike-in standards. By Sagniez Mélanie & Anshul Budhraja biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

The choice of whether to use Seurat or Scanpy for single-cell RNA-seq analysis typically comes down to a preference of R vs. Python. But do they produce the same results? In biorxiv.org/content/10.110… w/ Joseph Rich et al. we take a close look. The results are 👀 1/🧵
