Het aantal verkeersdoden in een land en stad is een politieke keuze. Geen technische. Dit is oud nieuws en al heel lang bekend. Doe wat Helsinki en Oslo doen die al jarenlang nul verkeersdoden hebben. Bange politici weigeren de automobilist aan te pakken.

AlphaFold - A practical guide AlphaFold - A practical guide

Recently I learnt that EMBL-EBI has a free online course about AlphaFold β€” how it works, strengths and limitations, how to use it β€” and it's very good!

There are also little quizzes and interactives.

Extremely excited to see a glimpse of my previous career in microbiome research here at #AACR25 with a talk from the great @cibiocm.bsky.social!

Reminds me of my great research stay I did in his lab in Trento.

After a windy bike ride next to the lake, I am completely ready for week 2 of my US trip.

Reach out if you want to talk bikes, I mean TCR repertoires, coming days here in Chicago at #AACR25

Disease diagnostics using machine learning of B cell and T cell receptor sequences Clinical diagnosis typically incorporates physical examination, patient history, various laboratory tests, and imaging studies but makes limited use of the human immune system’s own record of antigen ...

The recent "Mal-ID" paper in Science diagnoses diseases from immune repertoires. But a powerful model like Mal-ID can learn differences between groups of immune repertoires that are unrelated to the diseases of interest. We explore these pitfalls in our eLetter response.
