@LisCarey @actuallyautistic I'm a library technician at a University. Cataloging is one of my special interests (books are my special interest and I love organizing them, my whole 1300+ library at home is all catalogued). I have 3 lists on worldcat.org for #actuallyautistic people, fiction, non-fiction and research papers

Hey Linux geek, you can use PGP, parsed by @keyoxide, to be verified on Mastodon. It only takes 12 minutes:

5 books I'd recommend:
1. A Kind of Spark, #ElleMcNicoll - A book about difference & neurodivergence, brilliant!

2. Ten Steps to Nanette, #HannahGadsby - A searing autobiography of an #ActuallyAutistic woman.

3. But You Don't Look Autistic At All, #BiancaToeps The DSM criteria for #Autism from an #Autistic POV

4. A Man Called Ove, #FredrikBackman Emotional; #trauma & #neurodivergence.

5. Klara & The Sun, #KazuoIshiguro What does it mean to be human?

Please boost:

Who else on here works on #phylogenetics?

Maybe do a quick post with what you work on (e.g. clades, methods, questions...), and include the hashtag #phylogenetics so we can find and follow each other. Feel free to link to a paper or two!

For my part - I work on model selection, phylogenetic algorithms, mixture models, and at the moment am mostly working on the problem of how you find >1 tree in a single alignment, e.g. our latest attempt https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2022.10.06.511210v1

[THREAD] This thread will contain #autism knowledge quizzes.

It won't be textbook stuff.

Some questions will have a right answer, but others are arguable, and you may even want to argue about the options. Some will be opinion polls.

Most of the questions serve as prompts for further enquiry, and are designed to support advocacy in the areas of #AutisticHealth, #communication rights and #DisabilityRights in general.

Bit of light reading for a Sunday 🤔 Looking at various tools and #machinelearning methods for identifying cellular senescence in an attempt to save the lab team a lot of time carrying out manual cell counts 😬 #microscopy #imaging #deeplearning #science #cellbiology

@MedicalDemocrat I prefer using it in the app. But not the official one through. You miss a lot of things if you use that app.

I use Tusky for Android. And for ios there is Metatext.
