A screenshot of a graph of water levels from a station in Hawaii as the tsunami impacted the region.
Does water always recede prior to the arrival of a tsunami?
I was asked this yesterday after posting a graph of observed water levels at a station in Hawaii, which shows water levels first *increasing,* contrary to what many have heard about tsunamis.
The answer: no, not always! A thread... 🧵 1/9

This month I defended my master's thesis in Bioinformatics at @upf.edu! In my internship at @ki.se in @ejvillablanca.bsky.social's lab, I used bulk, single-cell and spatial transcriptomics to study changes in ulcerative colitis patients. Looking forward to keeping working in this exciting field!

In 2015, researchers Limb, Limb, Limb and Limb found that British doctors have surnames related to their specialties more often than expected by chance. Reproductive medicine had the largest proportion, with 1 in 52 doctors having specialty-relevant surnames including Horn, Hussey, and Woodcock. Second was Urology, with 1 in 59 related names such as Burns, Waterfall, Ball, and Koch.[96] "Dr Pain" appeared most commonly in general surgery.[96]

Cardiology 8 (1 in 213) Hart, Pump, Payne
Dermatology 4 (1 in 243) Boyle or Hickey
General medicine 63 (1 in 101) Mysore, Safe, Warning
General surgery 56 (1 in 91) Gore, Butcher, Boyle, Blunt
Paediatric medicine 46 (1 in 119) Boys, Gal, Child, Kinder
Plastic surgery 7 (1 in 140) Carver, Mole, Price

#Bluetorial: In our latest paper on #gdTcells and #IBD in #ScienceImmunology we found that γδ IEL number and regulatory function are severely compromised BEFORE ileal inflammation occurs, suggesting that γδ IELs may maintain IEL homeostasis in response to a pro-inflammatory microenvironment. 1/n

Single-cell profiling of the human endometrium in polycystic ovary syndrome - Nature Medicine
A transcriptomic atlas of the endometrium of women with polycystic ovary syndrome uncovers both disease signatures and potential therapeutic targets.
My dear colleague Gustaw Eriksson has just published a comprehensive cellular atlas of the endometrium in women with PCOS, showing cell-type-specific disease signatures. This reveals new promising therapeutic targets for PCOS-related endometrial dysfunction.

1/ 🧬 Single-cell genomics reveals biological variations beyond cell types. Unveiling these in separate latent dim’s is known as disentanglement. Led by @AmirAliMoinfar, we develop DRVI to learn nonlinear, disentangled & interpretable latent spaces.

Inspired by the other amazing starter packs - here's one for cancer researchers!
I tried to make this broad - from immunology to genomics to cell biology and so much more..
This list also includes organizations & institutes supporting cancer researchers 🧪🔬⚕️🩺
Hope its useful!
