Thanks Kate Smith & the Faculty Orientation team for organizing the 1st welcome event for new Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health faculty hosted by Ellen MacKenzie It was an honor to represent jhubiostat 🙌🏽, though clearly we were outnumbered by International Health! I met 8+ new IH faculty tonight!

Having received a @Conahcyt_Mex PhD scholarship, Leo gives back by teaching at LCG UNAM LCG UNAM Juriquilla (LCGEJ) ~1 week/year and co-founded ComunidadBioInfo to Latin Americans like him break through and start their careers in computational biology, particularly using #RStats & Bioconductor

I presented at LIBD rstats club an overview on Multicellular Factor Analysis #MFA & Multi-Omics Factor Analysis #MOFA 🧫 Includes shoutouts to Oliver Stegle @wolfgangkhuber Saez-Rodriguez Group Ricardo O.

Today at LIBD rstats club we did some live debugging on 2 Bioconductor 📦s we submitted * #visiumStitched: we tried reproducing a Single Package Builder error * #DeconvoBuddies: we discussed options to comply with the 15 min limit to "R CMD build" #RStats youtu.be/YAeUsKGUmtM

I made a genomic scientists trained in Mexico 🇲🇽 starter pack. I'd like for our voices to be heard! If you can help spread the word, that'd be great! Thank you! ComunidadBioInfo NNB-UNAM Red Mexicana de Bioinformática LCG UNAM LCG UNAM CCG UNAM Instituto de Biotecnología UNAM LIIGH

Today for LIBD rstats club I led a "Live exploration of latest #RStats news on Bluesky" Bluesky intro: starter packs & feeds (aka algorithms) + Hadley Wickham's curated feed, Bioconductor news, and more 👀 youtu.be/hclxkkp-V_I

I'm thrilled to share with you that #visiumStitched led by Nick Eagles has now been published Our #RStats / Bioconductor 📦provides a framework for stitching together multiple #Visium @10xgenomics capture areas together doi.org/10.1186/s12864…

One 💯 update is how Nick used the overlapping spots to calculate a matching rate in spatial cluster assignments #BayesSpace with HVGs does better, whereas #PRECAST with #nnSVG SVGs does slightly better. Both improve when using #visiumStitched to increase the number of neighbors

🆕 improved diagram for how #visiumStitched is able to help #BayesSpace, #PRECAST, & other array-based methods (col/row hex grid) find more neighboring spots when you have overlapping spots from different capture areas. You already generated the 🤩 data, might as well use it!

A few months late, but here's our LIBD rstats club "End of year GitHub cleanup" 2024 activity guidelines youtu.be/MrMae8vikGQ < 5 min Thank you all #OpenSource developers who make #RStats and other software we depend on!

After teaching LCG UNAM students about these tools, at @libdrstats I talked about "R coding using GitHub Copilot with RStudio and related R packages" Shoutouts Simon Couch Edgar Ruiz Hadley Wickham et al! #RStats Posit PBC youtu.be/qWuoVQG5BZw

New blog post: Initial impressions from testing Posit Connect lcolladotor.github.io/2025/03/14/ini… I describe our use case and why I think that Posit Connect will be helpful for our @lieberinstitute work moving forward Posit PBC #RStats #shiny #shinyapps #spatialLIBD #iSEE LIBD rstats club

Excited to announce that our #deconvolution benchmark has now been published in Genome Biology ! 📊 📄 doi.org/10.1186/s13059… Check out my blog post for a high level overview: lahuuki.github.io/posts/2025-04-…
