Ever wanted a virtual assistant that you could show your #microscopy images to get help with visual understanding, hypothesis generation, and experiment design? I'm pleased my team contributed to this reasoning benchmark led by James Burgess (at ICLR 2025) to test these abilities using current MLLMs

Congratulations to Anne Spang @SpangLab for being elected as a new #AAASFellow 2024 by AAAS ! The world’s largest scientific society recognizes her outstanding contributions to the field of cell #biology and #biochemistry.

Avec ce qui se passe aux États-Unis, nous avons une opportunité énorme ici en Europe pour faire venir l’excellence américaine sur notre sol. Nous devons lancer une grande politique d’attractivité à l’égard des investisseurs et des scientifiques. Tirons notre épingle du jeu ! 🇪🇺

Dire cela est un scandale !

Linoleic acid is the most abundant polyunsaturated fatty acid in the Western-style diet and has been implicated in promoting inflammation and cancer. In Science, researchers report a mechanism by which linoleic acid can activate the mTORC1 protein kinase, which coordinates

At 15, I left all my family and friends and came to the US , ALONE, seeking a country where MERIT and HARD WORK mattered-not politics. For 30 years, I worked tirelessly, even doing reseach at MIT the day my mother died, knowing she’d want me to keep pushing forward. Today, my

Don’t miss the occasion ! Great meeting ahead !!
