Super happy and proud of this one. We and others have developed tools for dimensionality reduction for many years. MOFA (linear) and other non-linear generalisations, space/time. scDORI fuses this with GRN inference. It’s a nice and useful piece of software. Here applied to GBM biology.

Happy birthday! What a trajectory in just 3y. More exciting tools & packages and of course community.

Trump Administration Has Begun a War on Science, Researchers Say (Gift Article) Nearly 2,000 scientists urged that Congress restore funding to federal agencies decimated by recent cuts.

“We all rely on science.” U.S. scientists are speaking out for scientific integrity and academic freedom. What they’re doing matters. We owe them our solidarity and a clear stand beside them.

We’re thrilled to announce that the EMBL-EBI Thornton Building has been officially opened by Lord Vallance of Balham, the UK’s Minister for Science, Research and Innovation.

We hope it will be a space where collaboration, translation, and science can thrive! 🌱

I could not really motivate myself to start properly on Bluesky following my departure from twitter. Maybe this picture is a good place to start. Antwerpen central station. What a building m!! Looking forward to www.vibconferences.be/events/revol...

Really great collab with @moritzgerstung.bsky.social and Dana Pe’er lab. Excited to hear what you all think. Cell segmentation is just hard… more to
Come! Will also show a bit of it tomorrow at www.vibconferences.be/events/revol....
