Winter School 2024 Join us from 15-20 December in Obergurgl and Innsbruck for an intensive program on “Big Data Divide and Governance of BBD Platforms.” Open to advanced undergraduates, postgraduates, and early-stage researchers in life sciences from the Eurolife institutions

2024's top 10 advances in biology (🧵) 1. Progress in longevity Blocking the pro-inflammatory cytokine, IL11, extended healthspan and lifespan (in mice!) Old mice without IL11 look healthier, they're stronger, and they live longer nature.com/articles/s4158…

Grateful for being part of the DATAETHICS-EuroLife winter school in Obergurgl 2024. Amazed by all the great minds and debates on #dataethics, #Artificial_Intelligence, #healthcare legislation, #bioethics & more. What an amazing opportunity! @imed_tweets

1/ Exploratory Data Analysis (EDA) is the first step in any data analysis journey. When working with RNA-seq data, one of the most commonly used techniques is Principal Component Analysis (PCA). But what exactly is PCA, and why does it matter? Let’s break it down. 🧵👇

And for the grand finale: Precursor central memory versus effector cell fate and naïve CD4+ T cell heterogeneity. A perfect reminder of immunology’s complexity—how one decision can shape an entire fate.

Our new research out today in Nature Microbiology led by Nicola Segata expanding our knowledge on diet-microbiome-health connections in omnivores, vegetarians & vegans. 👇🏻 doi.org/10.1038/s41564…

Cancer statistics in 2025 🇺🇸- new report 🚨 Cancer is becoming a new disease. We're seeing a fundamental shift in who gets cancer, moving from a predominantly male, elderly disease to one that increasingly affects women and younger people. Key highlights 🧵

Very interesting workshop by FWF on grant writing & application.

Failure is always in the background of any creative project; when the experiments are not working or the results don’t seem to make sense. But for discovery, you can’t deny yourself the permission to fail, and we should better teach failure in all its glory.

Great day at the antichrist seminar sharing interesting thoughts with PhD peers and outstanding researchers from the Medical Uni. Innsbruck. Danke für die Einladung 🙏 Wilfried Posch, Doris Wilfingseder, Patrizia Stoitzner Et al. #Immunology #Oncology #Science

#PhD #frustration. When you realize your story is unpublishable after two years of work. #Research ♥️ time to work harder :)

I love realizing how much I'm growing thanks the PhD. It's a roller coaster of emotions that makes me question my decisions. But as long as science keeps giving me goosebumps, I will stay.

I really liked this article. thecollector.com/science-philos…

It was a great opportunity to hear Michael Moor at the Medical university of Innsbruck the other day talking about AI in medicine.

this is a marathon, not a sprint! chemistryworld.com/news/a-mix-of-…

Excited about giving a talk next Friday at the PhD Life Science Meeting 2025 at the Medical University of Innsbruck. When I started this journey I dreamt of giving a talk at this conference. Good things take time. #PhDlife #microbiota #innsbruck #medicaluniversity

Today I have the feeling I am achieving little things that will take me where I want to be. Getting compliments on my work and being accepted for a dream conference. I feel I am on the right track. Sometimes it's just hard to see it enjoy this feeling #science #excitement #happy
