Hi all!

I am Akanksha, currently working as a research tech at HHMI Janelia Research Campus, engineering bioluminescent proteins for functional imaging.

My research interests lie at the interface of chemistry, biology, and engineering 🔬. 'A tool developer' describes me best - in the dry lab, I was working on a systems biology project involving detecting hard-to-find nucleotide changes with certain effects from human transcriptome datasets. Transitioning to a wet lab, I have been engineering proteins for various applications.

Being an avid learner, I spend a lot of time reading articles from across various sub-disciplines in bioscience and biotech. I'm happiest when brainstorming ideas in molecular/synthetic biology or new tools that don't exist with a near-perfect cup of coffee☕ ! Always happy to connect over a crazy idea!

Cheers!

Hello all, #introduction
In my professional life I’m a full stack software developer (mainly Java - Angular), with an interest in Identity and Access Management and Secure Software Development.
After work I like playing the piano, cooking and coaching at CoderDojo.
I have a general interest in technology, science and mathematics.

#introduction I'm Carl Boettiger. I'm a theoretical ecologist and data scientist at Berkeley. I'm interested in #rstats, #openscience, #opensource #python, #linux, & #teaching. Feels lovely to have a timeline instead of an algo once more, & so many friends here!

Hello all! #introduction

I'm a Postdoc at CUHK working at the application of #MachineLearning, #Neuroscience in Psychology.

Love to see you all at Mastodon!! Great to meet you all in the decentralized social network!!

I have three cats and two dogs :)

Hello all! #introduction

I'm a Group Leader at HHMI Janelia Research Campus working at the intersections of #ComputerVision, #MachineLearning, #DataScience, #Neuroscience, #Ethology, #HCI, #SoftwareEngineering. I work on using computer vision, machine learning, and technology in general to help us gain insight into biology. My most cited work involves tracking and behavior analysis of flies and mice. I love algorithms and trying to understand how and when they work and what they're good at. But also I'm an engineer and want to solve problems however I can, regardless of elegance!

I like sunshine, being outside, #climbing, and #crosswords. I dream of someday leaving it all behind and moving to Bishop or Yosemite or the Rockies or something.

#MastodonClients - Desktop Linux client first impressions:

#Whalebird:
+ (some) keyboard navigation, (some) customization
- heavy (Electron), little bugs (keyboard scroll-down far enough and it randomly takes you to the top of the timeline)

#Tootle
+ Beautiful visual design, quick buttons for favourites, lists, etc.
- No keyboard navigation, archived project (no updates)

#Tokodon
+ Quick to load, everything happens snappily
- pretty barebones, barely any customization

(part 1 of ?)

On a "can't believe it" success high!

I couldn't get #ROS2 v4l2 camera node (#Ubuntu 22.04 Server on #RaspberryPi) to pass video, but did manage to build libcamera/libcamera-apps and and a node that passes 10 frames a minute.

I can visually see "what the robot is seeing" to compare with the current rviz2 map topic.

My #GoPiGo3 mounted RPi4 is running 30-40% cpu load, using 700MB memory, keeping a cool 55degC. Everything on the RPi except the visualization apps - rviz2 and rqt-image-viewer.
