...ahh finally

...but no, that didn't compute 😂...

...I thought maybe I can teach it an easier way to remember - G and C are round, A and T are pointy. Round pairs with Round, Pointy with Pointy...

Because of the nice Google Doodle I was drawn into a conversation with AI about base pairing...

... (think causation vs correlation, replicate number and statistical support). We should not feel urged to make extraordinary claims to land a high 'originality' score, instead AI should be an instrument that can match the text with that the data really allows to claim and flag overinterpretation.

This is very cool @odedrechavi.bsky.social. Do I understand correctly that it works with the text of the manuscript, not with figures or data? My concern with current production rate is that papers may be written skilfully and claims are clear, but they are not adequately supported by the data...

Deeply grateful to @carlzeissstiftung.bsky.social, I'm very much looking forward to realising this ambitious, long term project with your support. An thank you for the little CARL ZEISS I received with my mail today, he's already on top of his first experiments in our lab at @uni-freiburg.de 😀

😂 exactly what I thought when I enjoyed the Black Forest view from the rectorate, which previously was only a promise behind the fog and rain

#Jobalert 🚨: looking for a #computationalbiology expert with track record in analysis, integration and interpretation of #omics datasets, in particular #epigenomics, #singlecellgenomics, #proteomics data. uni-freiburg.de/stellenangeb... short deadline 30th September!

And now off to the 5th Liquid Biopsy Meeting @uniklinik-fr.bsky.social

Today I have been officially appointed to full Professor at @uni-freiburg.de 🎉.

Save the date 📅! Our TriNational #devbio #stemcell Meeting 2025 will be held in Freiburg on Sept. 19th. As always, participation is free and talks will be selected from early career scientists. Joun us 😊

@biozentrum.unibas.ch @uni-freiburg.de @igbmc.bsky.social

Congratulations Koichi Sato and @puckknipscheer.bsky.social for a biochemistry tour de force! Sooo many in vitro experiments, pinning down step by step a mechanism to resolve G4 structures. We used KOs and quantitative G4 CUT&Tag to corroborate mechanism in mouse ESC.

Fantastic collaboration with @puckknipscheer.bsky.social 👏! Congrats to all!

i was hoping Bsky would understand *markdown* 🙄

PhD or Postdoc interested working on your own or collaborative project at @uni-freiburg.de? Apply to [Freiburg Rising Star Academy](uni-freiburg.de/frsa/). [Info Session](forms.office.com/e/G9LSAsFuWU) on June 23. Get in touch if you'd like to join us at [CIBSS](uni-freiburg.de/frsa/applica...)

Finally found it! researchagora.com, very interesting development, will try it out

I found DeCci Labs desci.com, looks interesting, but exactly what I am remembering

❤️

also anyone with an apt/house for rent in #freiburg, 4+ rooms, preferably Herdern, Güterbahnhof, Wiehre, ANY time, ANY price, SEND IT MY WAY

Incredibly grateful for this tremendous recognition by @humboldt-foundation.de and not possible without the strongest support from @uni-freiburg.de and many previous funding bodies that made our research possible

This is a joint achievement by everyone who contributed to the elsaesserlab.wordpress.com over the past 10 years and I am so looking forward to our big 10-year reunion next week ❤️

📣 I will take up a Professorship at @uni-freiburg.de, Faculty of Biology. With amazing funding news coming in, we'll be in a position to establish a major research program around Epigenetics, Signaling and Synthetic Biology at the Signalhaus @cibss.bsky.social. More news and job ads to come soon!

Do you have to cut the top to get flowers? Or is it just the right climate? Stockholm = no flowers

Do you sometimes feel research is 🎶 on step forward and two steps back 🎶? Well the good thing about a marathon is that no matter how slow you go, you are always getting closer to the finish line 😅. #stockholmmarathon ✌️

We are looking for MSc students interested in joining us for a bioinformatics thesis project. The task is to analyze existing epigenomics datasets, explore data from different technical and biological angles, generate reproducible code and figures to be incorporated into manuscripts #jobalert

a bit like www.micropublication.org but much more advanced features and slick design! If only I had asked for her number 💔#openscience

hoping for swarm intelligence: came across a new publishing platform that allowed to publish small experiment units or attach new experiments to existing publications (e.g. 'this result confirms figure 3A in paper X'), together community peer review. Problem: I can't find the website anymore. HELP!

Climate-change deniers use Grok AI to write a climate-change denier article, and published that in a climate-change denial journal.
They even had to 'steer' Grok a couple of times, because its text was not climate-change denier enough.
