Kregen andere promotoren ook bericht dat ze hun aanbeveling bij @fwovlaanderen.bsky.social niet hadden ingediend terwijl ze dit wel hadden gedaan? #onnodigestress

Zelf nooit hulp gehad, ouders vroegen zelfs niet of ik huiswerk had, ook niet naar resultaten. Nu moeten wij wel helpen, leerstof en opdrachten die mee naar huis komen zijn vaak zo complex dat zelfs wij er moeite mee hebben (2 ouders met PhD).

In the next phase additional domain segmentation methods will be implemented. In addition will use this to simulate and understand protein movements in more detail. (3/n)

This phase is about visualization of protein dynamics, where proteins are first segmented into shapes followed by showing normal modes of the trajectories with help of Blender. Different segmentation algorithms were implemented in an OOP framework, to ensure extendability (2/n)

Small rant. Funding rejected again. Quoting the reviewers "very ambitiius and original", "innovative" but "concerns .. about expertise". This semester, I started on the initial phase of this project nevertheless with a group of Master students and superhappy with results so far! (1/n)
