I’ve received more messages, food, and calls than when my mother died, because science in the U.S. is dying. I don’t know how to help, and I can’t just stand by and watch this happen. This goes beyond politics—it’s about the future and growth of humanity itself. I invite anyone,

Sharing this op-ed we co-authored with other international postdocs, highlighting the struggle of doing science under an increasingly hostile political climate, while also fighting for fairer working conditions.

At 16 I started resistance training & running 3x/week (each) & eating (mostly) clean. It’s made working 10-14 (hard & focused) hrs day for the last 30+ yrs easy but none of that was popular. Now, I’m sure the best unpopular thing to do is restrict social media to ~60min per day.

This a really exciting leap forward for genomic sequence to activity gene regulation models. It is a genuine improvement over pretty much all SOTA models spanning a wide range of regulatory, transcriptional and post-transcriptional processes. 1/

Appalling: the Trump admin is taking over the entire National Science Foundation U.S. National Science Foundation building for HUD, creating an executive suite, private dining room and new gym for the HUD secretary, Scott Turner, plus reserved spots for his 5 cars. This is deeply corrupt

DeepMind just dropped a 106-page paper unveiling AlphaGenome. This single model could completely redefine how we discover disease-causing mutations and drug targets. This is massive. 🧵

What a mind-blowing week for AI in biology! 🚀 Xaira just dropped the largest genome-wide perturbation dataset ever last week 🧬 Arc unveiled STATE yesterday, the most powerful foundation model for single-cell perturbation prediction 🧠 DeepMind followed up with AlphaGenome,

This is why Zohran Mamdani won. He's a modern, educated American with a sense of humor who not only knows how to communicate, but understands and empathizes with the plight of working class Americans. I sincerely hope the Democratic Party is taking notes.

1/ Working with big data in R? Your wrangling just got a massive upgrade. duckplyr is now in the tidyverse—and it’s fast. Really fast. 🧵

The protein story is based on statistical BS, amateur data fudging. Bro Science is really for idiots. 1- Some do very well growing muscles on minimal protein ing., others poorly on large doses. 2- Remove the line, see the fraud. 3- One of the authors failed to reveal he was

A decade of a show….that’s a lot. Proud of what we do and grateful for you supporting us. We’ll fire it back up again in time for football. My sincere thanks. It remains impossible to believe this is what I get to do.

5/ In collaboration with Pedro Miura, we perform direct long-read RNA-seq and found that BTG2 preferentially deadenylates ribosomal RNAs, reducing mRNA stability, and that loss of these ribosomal RNAs increased cellular quiescence.
