Systems Medicine by Uri Alon is a genuine tour de force, proposing a unifying systems biology framework to think about human disease. Very thought provoking. Related videos can be found on his lab's YT channel. A great teacher too. youtube.com/@alonlab9733

Some very interesting talks on bioinformatics pipelines with Nextflow (and nf-core) from #nextflowsummit 2024 Boston are being added to their YT channel youtube.com/@Nextflow/vide…

Great collection of recorded theoretical biology talks. I prefer to read papers, but I hear psychologically healthy people like talks, so check the list in link below

Une autre interrogation liée au Test Électoral RTBF: qui a/aura accès à la base de données où sont sauvegardées les réponses de millions d'électeurs, potentiellement un atout politique redoutable. Et qui a eu accès à la BD du Test 2019 ? Détails: x.com/AlexIrrthum/st…

Help needed. #bioinfo #compbio people, any recommendation for an upcoming/recurrent in person short course or workshop for an experienced software dev wanting to enter the field ? 💻 👉 🧬🧫 I don't find much. Not critical but bonus points if it's in Europe. Thanks !

Pas l'habitude des tweets indignés mais là... DH les Sports + et Frédéric Ngom vous êtes les champions du putaclic à vomir 🤮 et vous avez perdu ce qui vous restait de décence. Vous avez songé aux (grands-)parents d'enfants scolarisés à Châtelet ? Publié à 10h00. C'est un exercice!

Biomedical datasets are often confined to specific domains, missing valuable insights from adjacent fields. To bridge this gap, we present BIOMEDICA: an open-source framework to extract and serialize PMC-OA. 📄Paper: lnkd.in/dUUgA6rR 🌐Website: lnkd.in/dnqZZW4M

For people into medical AI, this course from Marinka Zitnik is the real deal. Marinka and her team are relentlessly delivering ground-breaking work in biomedical AI from genes and proteins to clinical trials, clinical reasoning, medical bots, etc. Very interesting material.
