Computational biologist at TU Dresden. I am curious how mutations happen, why damage and mutagenesis differ a lot from place to place. @apoetsch.bsky.social

Our 🧬 language model GROVER has now been published in @NatMachIntell. GROVER is a foundation model on the human genome to understand how such models learn grammatical structure in 🧬 and fine-tune it for more specific genomics questions. https://t.co/vP1WPgWNRF

Are you interested in combing machine learning and 🧬 language models with multi-omics data to study somatic genome evolution?
We have several open postdoc positions and look forward to hearing from you!

There seems to be some overdue momentum to move to bluer skies. You can find me over there under

(the algorithm didn't like this post before, so here it is again, but with a picture and some algorithm-candy: Immigrants rock! 💪🏻)

There’s a new Master in the house! Congratulations, Pablo! Excellent job 🥂

The book to read today (or yesterday)

[Anna Poetsch @APoetsch]

@OdedRechavi What exactly do you mean? I read Stefan Zweig’s autobiography recently and his description of the beginning of WW1 got me scared. I see the parallels in general, but what do you mean by specifically referring to Twitter?

[Anna Poetsch @APoetsch]

@notSoJunkDNA @OdedRechavi This comment made me also think about that book…. and I was just contemplating the same question….

[Anna Poetsch @APoetsch]

@NatalieADye @MBIsg Have a good start, @NatalieADye !

[Anna Poetsch @APoetsch]

One position is on genotype - phenotype relationships in glioma development using single-cell multiome data and machine learning.

[Anna Poetsch @APoetsch]

Are you interested in how 🧬 works in the context of cancer and leukaemia development? We have several open postdoc positions. Interested? Please just get in touch.
(I have not found the time to formally advertise them, yet)

[Anna Poetsch @APoetsch]

One position is on 3D genome architecture in leukaemia using DNA language models.

[Heather Machado @heatherEmachado]

PhD and Postdoc positions available! Interested in how our immune system evolves with a growing tumour, and how we can use that to fight cancer? Love data analysis? Applications now being accepted in the Machado Lab (https://t.co/2oEckDqh4i) at the University of Cambridge.

@OdedRechavi It was really very enjoyable ☺️

[Anna Poetsch @APoetsch]

If I were a postdoc again….

@haesleinhuepf @BIOTEC_TUD @tudresden_de Thank you, Robert!

[Anna Poetsch @APoetsch]

I am happy to announce that as of today I will be Acting Chair for Genomics 🧬 @BIOTEC_TUD @tudresden_de.
I feel very honoured for the opportunity!

It is a temporary appointment that brings me one step further. Also, I guess, I sound more important now 🪑.

[Anna Poetsch @APoetsch]

@KlutsteinlbCARL @BIOTEC_TUD @tudresden_de Thank you ☺️

[Anna Poetsch @APoetsch]

@jdpereira @BIOTEC_TUD @tudresden_de The chair is only acting ;-)

[Anna Poetsch @APoetsch]

@jdpereira @BIOTEC_TUD @tudresden_de Thank you :-)
