@Mate_Kiss_ So exciting, Máté! Congratulations!!

@Krusty_M_D @22xTJuan Lo que entiendo es que aquellos que hayan estudiado en universidades acreditadas por CONEAU ya no tienen que legalizar/apostillar el título via RREE para que se les sea reconocido el título.

Some exciting news to share! Our lab is relocating to @harvardmed Systems Biology and @BrighamWomens GI & Genetics this fall. We're actively recruiting talented postdocs to join our team. Please RT to spread the word.

@elanarca Todo el mundo habla de Pink Floyd como banda progresiva pero lo que yo más rescato es cómo llevaron el blues al espacio.

Nada de escalas alteradas ni polirritmos onanistas. Puro folk y blues empaquetado en texturas y poesías que te erizan la piel.

@InsomniosAticos hermoso verso de Cazuza que ahora anda por toda la anglósfera y el hip-hop sin reconocer de dónde viene

This account endorses NICH as a valid pronunciation of niche.

@nathanwpyle Hi Nathan! Why hasn't this design been made into a t-shirt? I'd love to buy it!

The most important unexpected lesson of my PhD.

[Michael Baym @baym]

@ewanbirney There’s a second layer I had to learn (and find other quant-turned-biologists I teach struggle with) which is to not overthink before trying something—that there are so many unexpected twists you hit the limit of what you can plan by thinking much earlier than you expect

@AlGnWh Entré a Twitter nada más para ver cómo veías las victorias coperas de River, el Barça y Miami.

@moultano @paulg ggridges didn't replace ggjoy. They are the same package. @ClausWilke created the package (circa 2016-2017?) and renamed it upon learning what joy divisions were.

@danlehnermusic How about the Jazz Messengers?

Our 🪐SATURN method is now out in @naturemethods!
SATURN paves the way for universal cell embeddings, enabling integration of datasets across different species 🐒🐁🧍🐟🐸 Using protein language models, we encode biological meaning of genes in scRNA-seq datasets.

@InsomniosAticos ¿Alguna conexión con οἰδάω ("hincharse")? Tipo Edipo, de los pies hinchados, que [spoiler?] se termina cegando (¿juego de palabras?) al final de la tragedia.

@riddhimankg @BrotmanBaty Congratulations, Riddhiman!!

@skdh What are some (old and modern) books you'd recommend on instrumentalism / non-realism?

[Nico Gort-Freitas @Nich]

@vortuosity @Chopin93674786 @VergaraLautaro It's a poor approximation for most things other than a pure ideal gas.

[Nico Gort-Freitas @Nich]

@skdh @Philip_Goff Hi Sabine! Are there any modern books about scientific realism and, especially, anti-realism that you would recommend? Thanks!

"These methods can order a set of individual cells along a path, and assign a pseudotime value to each cell that represents where the cell is along that path. This can be a starting point for further analysis to determine gene expression programs driving cell phenotypes."
