Ustilago maydis es un hongo estrechamente ligado al maíz. 🌽🍄 Durante su desarrollo infecta sus tejidos y puede formar las características agallas que conocemos como huitlacoche.

A #ChemEd#Chemistry intro to the frontier molecular orbital view of electrophilic addition to alkenes. It is a companion to the last one (https://t.co/29qOvWuo9r). It is an oversimplification but useful at #UG level. It shows the limitations of curly arrow mechanisms. Enjoy.
Ari (@AriWagen) made an interface for IR spectral predictions that's so easy to use that it's hypnotizing.
I measured and computed dozens of IR spectra in my PhD, perhaps hundreds, and this is the most intuitive way to interact with the data that I've ever encountered:
Today, we're adding infrared (IR) spectra predictions to our platform!
IR spectrophotometers are valuable tools in structure characterization ("what molecule is this white powder that I made?"), and predicted IR spectra can help rule out or confirm structural hypotheses.

El huitlacoche: la trufa mexicana.
Mi abuelo era campesino. En alguna ocasión, viendo la milpa, señalé una mazorca de maíz cubierta con algo oscuro; como un tumor cubriéndola. "Abue: ese elote ya se pudrió". "No mijo. Al contrario. Esto es un tesoro". Y procedió a recogerlo. /1

Understanding the z-score can significantly enhance your data analysis skills. Here’s a quick guide to what z-scores are and why they matter:
🔍 What is a z-score?
A z-score, or standard score, indicates how many standard deviations an element is from the mean. A z-score of 0 means the value is exactly average, while a z-score of +1.5 indicates a value 1.5 standard deviations above the average.
📊 Why use z-scores?
- Comparability: It allows comparison between different data sets with various means and standard deviations.
- Outlier Detection: High or low z-scores may help identify potential outliers in a data set.
- Standardization: Z-scores help standardize data, preparing it for techniques that assume normal distribution.
🚧 Limitations of z-scores:
- Assumption of Normality: Z-scores are most effective when data follows a normal distribution. Their reliability decreases with heavily skewed data or extreme outliers. For example, the data in this post's graph does not appear normally distributed. While z-scores can still be calculated, they must be applied cautiously.
- Context Dependent: The interpretation of a z-score can vary by context; a z-score considered high in one field might be average in another.
- Oversimplification: Relying solely on z-scores might oversimplify the analysis, potentially overlooking important nuances in the data.
💡 Z-scores transform your data, facilitating complex analyses and potentially leading to more consistent conclusions. Whether you're examining student test results or assessing stock market fluctuations, z-scores can offer a clear picture of how each data point relates to the whole.
I've created a tutorial on how to compute z-scores in the R programming language: https://t.co/d6dkiIKxfu

This 2-year path has come to an end,
Habemus Master of Science, and what better way to finish than with honorary mention.
I appreciate the support of my thesis director and co-director.
