I couldn't have hoped for a better conclusion to my visit to @sangerinstitute It was an incredible experience to be able to present my work from the last six months at the #AIxBio25 conference. I’d like to deeply thank @mo_lotfollahi and @gtesta72 for giving me this opportunity.

[Hana Aliee @hana_aliee]

I'm honoured to join @CRUK_CI and @Cambridge_Uni as a Junior Group Leader of AI for Cancer. My group will focus on reasoning, multimodality, hypothesis-making, and more to decode disease and health.
A few positions are opened — consider applying to outsmart cancer together!

امیدوارم که خانواده هاتون سالم باشن، چشمهامون اشک آلوده برای ایران، برای کودکان و ادم های بیگناه که به خاک و خون کشیده شدن. برای همه دانشجویان ایرانی در زمینه هوش مصنوعی و بیوانفرماتیک و زیست شناسی محاسباتی که دچار مشکل شدن برای ادامه تحصیل یا تحقیقاتشون، به من ایمیل بزننین برای مشاوره یا هرکاری که از دستم بر میاد.

(1/n) The first preprint from our lab is now out in @NatureGenet! We tried to tackle a key challenge in spatial biology to quantitatively characterizing cellular niches by learning spatial gene programs using NicheCompas led by @SebastianBirk_.

Delighted to share my PhD thesis work is now published in @Nature! This study tracks the journey of blood stem cells in aging mice, examining how the clonal dynamics of blood production change over time. A short 🧵1/n #aging #stemcells #clonalhematopoiesis https://t.co/0TM28Hmeyt

(1/8) IMPA is published now in @NatureComms. (a) It can generate phenotypic cell painting/microscopy data images under unseen drug and genetic perturbations. (b) It learns a perturbation map of treatment similarities (small molecules together with genetic) and (c) it corrects batch effects in microscopy data. This was @ale__palmaa’s master’s thesis, which I supervised with @fabian_theis.

Job opportunity! 🚨

Our lab, together with @Muzz_Haniffa's team at @sangerinstitute, is hiring an Advanced Research Assistant/Technical Specialist. We're looking for someone passionate about organoid modeling, CRISPR screening, and spatial technologies to help create accurate in vitro models. These efforts will contribute to training large-scale AI models, supported by @OpenTargets.

This role also includes opportunities to develop computational and machine learning skills.
Feel free to DM me with any questions.

#TheBlackPhDExperience is out in the world! 🥳 Charting 27 personal stories within UK academia, find mine on academic support in Chapter 4

Thanks to our brilliant editors for their persistence & community @shaineNeuro @willackah @madina_immuno @jsd_lndn Wayne Mitchell @Bsc2Phd

[Feri Torabi @Feriitrb]

Honored to have contributed to this fantastic piece of work.

PS: Thank you so much @C_D_Todd for introducing me to the fascinating world of enhancer priming over 3 years ago🙏

[Reik Lab @ReikLab]

Preprint alert! 🎉 @C_D_Todd and the team used multi-omic profiling of human and mouse embryonic development to identify a conserved program of epigenetic priming at lineage specific enhancers for all three germ layers within the epiblast.

Two Iranians. One Olympics.

Hopeful for the day they can compete for the same country again.

[Mo Lotfollahi @mo_lotfollahi]

Our lab, in collaboration with partners from @genentech, @sanofi, @gsk, @pfizer, @sangerinstitute, and @emblebi, has been awarded £2M by @OpenTargets to generate novel perturbation data across multiple disease models and develop large generative models to facilitate the discovery of drug targets. As part of the first wave of hires, I am looking for candidates for two machine learning-focused positions at different levels (Predoc, Postdoc) and one computational biologist. The positions available are:

1. Machine Learning Scientist (Phd required, Senior Postdoc): https://t.co/O49r8TR43c
2. Machine Learning Scientist (Postdoc, Predoc (Msc)): https://t.co/7rVQkWPJgp
3. Computational Biologist and Applied ML (Postdoc): https://t.co/LBqJFvnNQA
