It was fun to write this piece for Molecular Cell with some other great contributors! I didn't end up highlighting "one great new technology"- I couldn't shake the feeling that it's rarely a single new cool tool that makes the most progress... doi.org/10.1016/j.molc…

Congratulations (a few days late) to Yang Xu on passing his dissertation defense! The Broad Institute will be lucky to have such a creative, productive machine learning scientist on board!

I just accidentally clicked on Dreamweaver, aiming for Illustrator. It asked "have you used Dw previously?" Well, yes, 19 years ago-- bio.davidson.edu/Courses/Molbio… Ah, good memories.. my first microarray analysis, protein structure manipulation, paper critique.. A. Malcolm Campbell

UMAP single cell layouts are pretty, but what do they mean? If you need to find out what gene signatures are important to define different cell types using multiple measurements (ie ATAC-seq/RNA-seq), check out a new SMILE feature tutorial from Yang Xu github.com/rpmccordlab/SM…
