🚨JOB ALERT🚨
Our awesome team at Human Technopole in Milan, is hiring a Bioimage Analyst! You can find the job posting below. Applications close December 16th. Come and join us!
I guess I should introduce myself #onhere: I am a postdoc in the Schier Lab at the Biozentrum (Switzerland). I am using #zebrafish to understand the #development of the nervous system. I love developmental biology of classic and non-canonical organisms, microscopy, loud music and comic books. Very much looking forward to meeting other scientists and cool people!
PS: I also help co-managing @ZebrafishRock , so make sure to give them a follow for the latest zebrafish community news
It's been years in the making (literally, my PR was ~ two years old 😅 ), but I finally updated Crispulator.jl to work with #julialang 1.0+.
It's ready to help you simulate your pooled #CRISPR screens for #functionalgenomics so that you can make sure they'll work before you pour many months into them!
Check out the refreshed docs: https://tamasnagy.com/Crispulator.jl/dev/
Almost that time of the year again. Who´s going to #CellBio2022?
I'm excited to share that our team has a new opening for a Computational Biologist role at Invitae.
We are a highly cross-functional research team of computational, experimental and clinical scientists with a mandate to maximize the utility of genomic information by developing and validating new insights into the effect of genetic variants.

Way overdue, but #Biopython 1.80 is out https://pypi.org/project/biopython/1.80/ - expect formal announcement later https://mailman.open-bio.org/pipermail/biopython/2022-November/016950.html - conda packages soon too! Thank you to all the contributors

Techs/staff scientists/postdocs/students, come work with us in 2023!
(pls retoot =)
Alright Mastodon let's do this.
#Introduction I'm Dr. Liz Haynes. You might know me as @actin_crazy on twitter. I'm a Morgridge post-doctoral researcher studying #neurodegeneration and #neurodevelopment using #zebrafish and #microscopes! I am all about #openaccess and #opensource solutions. I get to hang out with the cool folks working on ImageJ2 at the Laboratory for Optics and Computational Instrumentation (LOCI) at UW-Madison. Follow me for the pretty pictures, stay for the science!
@mikelove Post about papers, blogs and repos you are reading. What made Science Twitter useful for me a grad student was to put research in front of me from outside of my own citation graph, and provide some context for why someone would care about it.
@nicolaromano glad it was helpful, and good luck! Sc-Rnaseq analysis definitely seems complicated!
I am wondering if anyone has experience in doing comparative analysis of #scRNAseq datasets from different species, or if anyone knows of good resources about that esp with an #evolutionaryBiology focus?
@nicolaromano apologies if this is already on your radar, but as someone outside the field I appreciated the clarity and detail in this paper https://elifesciences.org/articles/66747
"The controlled expression of one cellular feature -- the cilium -- was likely critical during early animal evolution. Two key transcription factors, RFX and FoxJ1, coordinate ciliogenesis in animals but are absent from the genomes of most other ciliated eukaryotes, raising the question of how the transcriptional regulation of ciliogenesis has evolved."
Cell biologist and biophysicist studying evolutionary cell biology.
I'm interested in how amoebae divide, especially relatives of the "brain-eating amoeba"
I study this with microscopy, image analysis, and comparative genomics.
Postdoc at UMass Amherst Biology, PhD in Biophysics from Stanford.
I also love jazz and nature photography!
