It's increasingly difficult to get manuscripts peer-reviewed. One factor inflating the number of papers: Some countries (🇸🇪🇫🇮, others?) requiring a PhD student to publish multiple (~4) papers to graduate. Thus, work that could be one bigger paper is split to many small ones.

[Teresa Kubacka @paniterka_ch]

Today I asked ChatGPT about the topic I wrote my PhD about. It produced reasonably sounding explanations and reasonably looking citations. So far so good – until I fact-checked the citations. And things got spooky when I asked about a physical phenomenon that doesn’t exist.

I am looking for one or two postdocs in Computational biology. Come with your own project or work within one of our group's research programs. Details here: https://t.co/omX3cQaFTp

@tamara_hverdeja I read that book a while back, and it’s not normally something I would pick up. Definitely glad I did though!

Day 3 of the Transcriptome Analyses for Non-Model Organisms course by @Cambridge_Uni and @UmeaUniversity UPSCb team (@nmaehler, @b____________s and Nicolas Delhomme).

Exciting to learn sequence assembly/analysis for 3rd gen sequencing!

Excited to share the news: I will be moving to Sweden in May to start as a Professor of Genomics at Royal Institute of Technology, and as the Director of National Genomics Institute at @scilifelab. I'll continue to run a lab at @nygenome as an Associate Faculty Member.

[NGI Sweden @ngisweden]

With great honor, we welcome Tuuli Lappalainen as the new director of the SciLifeLab NGI!

That John (Moult) goes as far as saying “In some sense the problem is solved” about AlphaFold’s performance at this years CASP is huge! Congrats to them - and to Krzysztof/Andriy who have been running the assessment for ~25 years.

Brilliant. I believe I have committed all of them on numerous occasions. Minus Type IX - I accept no responsibility for that one.

PSA: if a bioinformatician is able to do any analysis fast, it is quite likely not because the analysis is easy. It is because the bioinformatician has spent hours prepping a system that allows to do it fast.
