🧵 Should you integrate single-cell RNA-seq datasets or not?
You've got PBMCs from multiple donors. Merge them—or keep them separate? Let's break it down.
One of the best math books I've ever read:
MIT's "Mathematics for Computer Science"
Its writing style is brilliant, and it covers everything:
- Linear algebra
- Series
- Logic
- Probability
- Number theory
- Graphs

One of the reasons why it is so difficult to maintain weight loss is because adipose issue retains an epigenetic memory of obesity after weight loss.

Ilya Sutskever gave John Carmack a list of papers to read, so as to improve John's understanding of AI. That is a lot to read. If you want to quickly grasp what those papers are about, in this thread I share maps on over 20 of them 👇

Here's the summary:
The strong inverse correlation between lifespan and mutation rate: we accrue mutations at a slower pace than many mammals but have roughly the same number of mutations by the end of our respective lifespans https://t.co/MBgFMkEeUn

New preprint from my lab! We use CRISPR to test effects of genetic variants inside transcripts, validating a number of GTEx variants: eQTLs and rare variants triggering nonsense-mediated decay. We then test variants in two disease genes where NMD affects the phenotype.
Our new preprint asks - "What happens when you give people identical bacterial sequence data and ask them to predict antimicrobial resistance?" Answer: A lot of disagreement https://t.co/iGdKONnRiA 1/5
