Spent a fun week at @ChampalimaudF, teaching the basics of bioinformatics to a group of smart, motivated students. Thank you again for the invitation! Interested in a course for your lab or institution? Get in touch on [email protected].

Friends don't let friends make bad charts!

Chenxin Li, pulled together a lot of great advice for data visualization, with clear "do this, not that" examples for each item.

Here are a few of my favorites, see the link below for more.

If there was only one scientific practice I could teach to every scientist regardless of stage or field I think it would be: look at the data. Spot check it. Find a few data points and trace them through to see if they make sense. Look at the raw data. Don't just do analyses.

Come and work at the best work place in the world @CREEM_cake happy to chat to folks about my (remote!) experience DM me if interested @univofstandrews

There are still spots left for the next edition of the online RNA-seq data analysis course, running from 29 Feb - 2 May (https://t.co/2qN95BXmyK)! Interactive, hands-on in R, and designed for bioinformatics beginners. Come join us! #Bioinformatics #course #rna

1. Hallgrímskirkja, Reykjavík, Iceland (1986)

A towering church built to mimic shapes formed by cooling lava. It raised eyebrows when unveiled, for mixing Gothic principles with a modern, Expressionist design. At 244 feet, it can be seen from virtually anywhere in the capital.

@_VerenaKohler Use the interview process to look for red flags regarding lab environment/PI. Don't accept a position without confidentially talking to several people that know the PI personally and can comment on how they treat their students.

The 4th edition of the online RNA-seq data analysis course will run from 29 Feb to 2 May. Hands-on, intuitive and requires no previous bioinformatics experience! Register here: https://t.co/QKNlNoWxY8 Photo from the last in-person edition at @Neuro_CF #Bioinformatics #R #RNAseq

Having now seen Rosina in a classroom, I cannot recomend this course enough. She's outstanding at explaining concepts, and she manages to get you thiking about Bayesian inference from the start. If you're looking to an intro to stats starting from the Bayes side, this is for you.

[Tiago André Marques @TiagoALOMarques]

Today I had t pleasure of hosting @MondegoScience Rosina Savisaar @FC_UL for a @CEstatisticAUL seminar on Bayesian Statistics aimed at my Modelação Ecológica student's and now we're on a student's only workshop. I am amazed at her ability to convey hard concepts in simple words

Excited to announce 2nd edition of the intro statistics course for biologists, online from Mar 5 to June 4 (https://t.co/k6Au1zxU8v). We will learn through a Bayesian prism, which should be both more intuitive and more powerful than classical approaches. #Statistics #Biology

Another edition of the RNA-seq data analysis course in the bag! Thank you for choosing to spend your Thursday afternoons with me this summer. PS: spots are still available for the intro stats course starting in about a month (https://t.co/upvjci65sh). #Statistics #data #research

P-values: constantly used and constantly misunderstood, often resulting in dodgy scientific conclusions. New online microcourse with videos, hands-on exercices and quizzes to help you with this tricky concept. https://t.co/fCC21nafjG #Statistics #research

[Mondego Science @MondegoScience]

Why is learning and teaching statistics so hard? And why might it be helpful to include Bayesian ideas in intro courses? Today's talk was both a stand-alone seminar, as well as an info session for the course this autumn. Check out the recording here: https://t.co/sDPA9i42WW.

Just for fun: here's a bunch of early drafts of the logo. My major struggle: I love insects but many people don't.
