Using the Curiosity rover, researchers found stones composed of native sulfur in Gediz Vallis, within Gale crater on Mars.
The researchers propose in Science that the primary source of this sulfur was magmatic vapor, which cooled in the near subsurface cryosphere and was released by decompression during the erosion of Gediz Vallis. https://t.co/gAY1zvdRan
🧬 New paper out in Bioinformatics!
We show that missense variant pathogenicity can be inferred with 95% accuracy from homologous proteins—paving the way for better variant interpretation in clinical genomics.

Yesterday some students of the #BDBI@ESCIupf visited the MareNostrum supercomputer. I was happy to see my old friend Karnak (SiliconGraphics Origin 2000), where I ran my first calculations. It was only 34400 times slower than MareNostrum4. #bioinformatics
