@Osmo_Labs @ScienceMagazine @ASU @MonellSc @UniofReading @osmo Congrats—Great to see this published in Science! We made an open-source replication of the POM for people to play with, build with, improve, extend: https://t.co/oOTUfBZBjs

@rgerkin Congrats Rick! BTW here is our open source replica of the POM: https://t.co/oOTUfBZBjs

[Michael Schmuker @ikumsch]

Congrats to the OSMO team for the Science paper! Bummer they couldn’t publish the POM model itself. We have made a replica and open-sourced it: https://t.co/VlYuVrLmq5
Star it, fork it, play with it, build with it, improve it, ands let us know about it!

A new #AI “nose” can predict odors from chemical structures, speeding the search for new, better smelling consumer products. https://t.co/C4ZBXC3v5V

@DrLutzBoehm Mal davon abgesehen, dass das QS ranking eher obskur ist, was sind eigentlich die Kriterien, nach denen sich deutsche Unis messen lassen wollen?

Getting ready for #SfN22 in San Diego! Come meet me at poster 130.02 on Sunday morning 13 Nov 9am and learn about our work towards better features for #odorspace. With Shawn D Burton and @wachowiak_matt

@cyrillerossant I noticed that Firefox is also much faster when rendering Jupyter notebooks.

[Michael Schmuker @ikumsch]

@NeuroSenseLab @FreiherrJessica These sound quite interesting! Unfortunately I can't make the time. Any chance you will be recording?

Devastated by the mass #layoffs across the tech sector. Amidst the crisis, we're #hiring. Get in touch if you're interested in #neuromorphic computing and #computational #olfaction. https://t.co/reFMUBRqDC

@KouMurayama Totally opposite experience here. UK childcare/school was 9am to 3pm—forget a full-time job. Couldn’t afford private childcare for 3 kids even with 2 salaries either. Moved to Berlin, childcare is almost free and we both can work full time.

2yr+ #postdoc opportunity at @HertfordshireCS! We‘re #hiring a Research Fellow to push forward #neuromorphic computing and #olfaction. Apply: https://t.co/reFMUBQSO4 #hiringalert @UniofHertsCE

Smell the way home! #olfaction and #spatialmemory are tightly linked in the brain. See my new article in @ConversationUK covering research led by @XindiPoo in @zmainen's lab. https://t.co/Iob42q7CA0

@tmalsburg @chbergma Also it’s hard enough already to find qualified reviewers for the science. The pool of capable code reviewers is much, much smaller.

[Michael Schmuker @ikumsch]

@tmalsburg @chbergma You have the answer there: Finding code errors takes much effort. Especially in not-quite-well-written code. Much would be won requiring basic quality standards in code as we expect correct grammar in text. Long way still until we can reject a paper because of badly written code!

Joint work with @Odor2Action IRG3, led by @JohnCrimaldi (CU Boulder), with Hong Lei & Brian H Smith (Arizona State), @AndreasTSchafer (Crick), Aaron C True (CU Boulder), Justus Verhagen (@jbpierce_lab ), and Jonathan Victor (Weill Cornell Medical College)

New paper with the @Odor2Action network! We highlight the shift from olfaction being seen as slow and static to a view in which fast odor dynamics play a critical role at many levels of sensing and behaviour. https://t.co/bkBXHHjQeT

[Michael Schmuker @ikumsch]

@saraivalab @Ecro2021 Thank you so much @saraivalab for organising #ECRO21 as an in-person meeting! It was super-inspiring to interact within the olfaction community face to face. 👍👍👏👏👏
Hope to see you next year at #ECRO22 in #Berlin!

[Michael Schmuker @ikumsch]

Work led by @nkdnnlr in close collaboration with
@RastogiShavika, @Jfonom and
@Andre_vanSchaik. Great teamwork!

New preprint: A popular #electronic_nose dataset turns out to be contaminated by sensor drift, limiting its use for #gas_recognition benchmarks. We drilled down on the details & identified 17 published studies potentially affected. Read all about it: https://t.co/QKHqvOVZEr
