Fun #Bioinformatics facts:
1/ FASTA was (is) a software package for searching DNA sequences.
2/ the “FASTA” input file format was never intended to be a standard,
3/ the common 80 character width of FASTA files are due to the resolution of DEC VT220 terminals in the 1980’s. 💾
Happy holidays! Introducing https://t.co/Ub3wgs1KVz, an AI-powered app that lets you chat with your data in English! RTutor uses Davinci (#ChatGPT’s sibling) to turn requests into R code, which is executed & results are shown instantly, available as a HTML report in seconds. 1/8
Hello Genomics Twitter!
We are looking to bring on another computational scientist or computational postdoc. The position would be leading some of our efforts in single cell and spatial multiomics of lung development and disease.

Scientific research is a greedy algorithm, building on prior work. But greedy algorithms are known to be non-optimal; that's why we always need to re-think our prior assumptions with an open mind
Twitter laid me off today. If you know of any open positions for project managers or senior software engineers, let me know. I was in charge of the feature that made sure every time you tweeted about machine learning you were served an ad for an intro stats course.
What scares you as a bioinformatician?🎃 I will start:
1. Table in PDF
2. Data in excel with inconsistent colum names
3. I have done the experiment, here is the data.
4. It should only take you a day to get the figure for me.

Come see the amazing @HeiniMNatri present our work identifying cell-type resolution eQTLs in the lung! I'm really excited for Heini to share these results. 3pm in the context matters section. #ASHG22
Excited that our work on learning cell-cell communication in spatial transcriptomics is finally out @NatureBiotech! Led by @davidsebfischer & @AnnaCSchaar, we setup a graph neural network to estimate niche composition on expression in unbiased fashion. https://t.co/Pb61f5K7TM
Hey #ASHG22 stop by our poster today "Using single nuclei multiomics and spatial transcriptomics to identify drivers of early pulmonary fibrosis" - PB3179. I'm really excited about this project. Plus you'll get a sneak peak at some amazing FFPE lung data from @vizgen_inc.
