๐Ÿ’ฅ Excited to introduce Bacformer ๐Ÿฆ  - the first foundation model for bacterial genomics. Bacformer represents genomes as sequences of ordered proteins, learning the โ€œgrammarโ€ of how genes are arranged, interact and evolve.

I want to expand on the extent to which IDEAA materials have been purged: I wrote an article last year for womenโ€™s history month on the history of women in antimicrobial developmentโ€ฆ.DELETED.

It's been very cool to follow and play a small part in this story: Carl and Velma found two distinct community types across omics layers in the cow rumen that are driven by protozoa ๐Ÿฎ๐Ÿ‘พ

Hi Bluesky! ๐Ÿฆ‹

I am transitioning to this platform and will start posting here about my own and others' cool science! ๐Ÿคฉ

Sad to say goodbye to science Twitter, but I can't keep using a platform that is being used to destroy democracy...

I'll be moving my old Twitter posts here in the coming days.

So strange this doesn't get any attention. Anyhow, maybe adding an illustration works. This is the exact same model

Which style is better?

data %>%
mutate(type = "significant")

or

data %>%
mutate(type = "significant")

Wouldn't it be better if R had a non-vector data type, then there would be no doubt distinguishing vectorized and non-vectorized functions?

A striking brushturkey with powerful beak, bare red head, and yellow neck collar.

Australian brushturkeys may be common to the point of being a nuisance, but they're stunning to look at and amazing in how they brood their eggs. Rather than sitting on them, they make incubation moundsโ€”compost piles, essentiallyโ€”the size of VW bugs and regulate the temperature therein carefully.
