DataSAIL is out in @NatureComms
Since the preprint, we have improved the work a lot, thanks to countless reviewers and feedback.

You can find it here: https://t.co/O4rbs4FHPK

Thanks, @dbblumenthal and @ok55991, for helping and supervising me on this journey.

Interested in developing scalable data structures for biological data? Then apply for a position in the lab of our collaboration partner Johann Gamper in beautiful Bolzano. Deadline: Oct 30, noon. Details: https://t.co/jkkmkCdBij

[David B. Blumenthal @dbblumenthal]

Work with us and help us developing more reliable and bias-reduced protein-protein interaction networks in a great collaboration between Milan, Munich, and Erlangen

[Martin Schaefer @MartinHSchaefer]

🚨 Postdoc or PhD opportunity! 🕸️ Protein-protein interaction networks face challenges like high error rates and biased degree of certain proteins. Help us improve their quality and develop computational methods to better interpret them! More info: https://t.co/0eItLr1xUj"

In our latest @naturemethods perspective we provide 7 questions on how to detect data leakage in biological #MachineLearning applications. @judith_bernett @dbblumenthal @bit_tumcs @FloHasee @RomanJoeres @itisalist @TU_Muenchen #TUMCS #HSWT https://t.co/WNaVNQwSVg

[Judith Bernett @judith_bernett]

Very proud to present our latest work: 7 guiding questions to avoid data leakage in biological machine learning applications ✨🔍 We hope that reflecting on these questions helps researchers to identify issues or shortcuts leading to overly optimistic performance estimates. 📈🧑‍🔬

Join our new Quantum Bioinformatics team at https://t.co/YWCZXllOIM (https://t.co/4WFGkIcrjX) in lovely Hamburg, Germany! We seek an Algorithm Engineer to experiment with the power of quantum computing for combinatorial optimization problem solving in Systems Medicine.

[Judith Bernett @judith_bernett]

So happy to announce that my paper with @itisalist and @dbblumenthal "Cracking the black box of deep sequence-based protein–protein interaction prediction" is finally published at Briefings in Bioinformatics https://t.co/nU53pCgnBk ! So what is it about? 1/13 🧵

[Martin Schaefer @MartinHSchaefer]

We are looking for a computational postdoc interested in cancer epigenomics to work with us in at the @IEOufficiale in Milan. Find more details on this and other positions here: https://t.co/bQUJT35cCC. Please share

🧬Get ready for our #federated singular value decomposition (#SVD) algorithm, suitable for the #privacy and computational requirements of genome-wide association studies (#GWAS). A corresponding App is available in #FeatureCloud's #AppStoreHealthcare! 🧪 https://t.co/pD6hkYaHPg

[Roman Joeres @RomanJoeres]

It's basically already old news but since Friday, DataSAIL is out as a preprint on @biorxivpreprint.

Now, you can split all your #biological #data for #ML without caring about Information or Data Leakage.

A summary in on the card below.

[Einstein Foundation @Einstein_Berlin]

Large-scale disease association databases are used in data-centric precision medicine but biased towards organ- & symptom-based disease definitions. @dbblumenthal @UniFAU aims to develop network-based approaches to disentangle data into new subsets, thereby improving predictions.

(2) Can we characterize senders/addressees of (un)successful letters? Answers to both questions is yes. In particular, letters tended be more successful if sent by active recommenders and and addressing less sought after receivers. Full story in the paper. 4/5
