I am happy to announce that I am seeking for a #postdoctoral bioinformatician or computer scientist for a full, #permanent_position as a research fellow in my lab! Co-maintain popular #opensource projects like #Bioconda, #Snakemake, and #Varlociraptor! koesterlab.github.io/#research-fell…


Congratulations to my wonderful PhD student Mitali Katoch for publishing today her first shared first-author paper in Acta Neuropathol Commun. 🥳💪🏻👏 #neuropath 🔬🧠 International League Against Epilepsy yesILAE actaneurocomms.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.11…

Just a few more days until the deadline! ⌨️ How reproducible is #CVPR2025? Let's find out together at #FAUhack on Dec. 8th-11th 2023 at FAU Erlangen-Nbg in Erlangen, Germany with Andreas Kist and Bernhard Egger Register until October 31st! reproducecvpr.tf.fau.eu

Large-scale disease association databases are used in data-centric precision medicine but biased towards organ- & symptom-based disease definitions. David B. Blumenthal FAU Erlangen-Nbg aims to develop network-based approaches to disentangle data into new subsets, thereby improving predictions.




So happy to announce that my paper with @itisalist and David B. Blumenthal "Cracking the black box of deep sequence-based protein–protein interaction prediction" is finally published at Briefings in Bioinformatics doi.org/10.1093/bib/bb… ! So what is it about? 1/13 🧵



A Perspective from @itisalist Judith Bernett Roman Joeres ok Florian Haselbeck Dominik Grimm @bit_tumcs & David B. Blumenthal discusses the issue of data leakage in machine learning models and presents 7 questions to identify and avoid problems as a result. nature.com/articles/s4159…



In our latest Nature Methods perspective we provide 7 questions on how to detect data leakage in biological #MachineLearning applications. Judith Bernett David B. Blumenthal @bit_tumcs Florian Haselbeck Roman Joeres @itisalist TU München #TUMCS #HSWT rdcu.be/dQuw1



DataSAIL is out in Nature Communications Since the preprint, we have improved the work a lot, thanks to countless reviewers and feedback. You can find it here: nature.com/articles/s4146… Thanks, David B. Blumenthal and ok, for helping and supervising me on this journey.


Curious how we can make machine learning predictions on biological data truly reliable, even when faced with unseen and dissimilar real-world scenarios?Nature Communications FAU Erlangen-Nbg "Data splitting to avoid information leakage with DataSAIL" 1. In bioinformatics, traditional random
