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.
The first approved CRISPR medicine in the world for sickle cell disease and beta thalassemia!
A huge victory for biotechnology, patients, and humanity

What an honor to represent the communities of
@nf_core and @nextflowio at this wonderful event, the 💯 training material and brilliant docs 💚
Couldn't have asked for a better stage than #VEME2023 to share the importance of reproducible research, #collaboration and #openscience
somalier can find relatedness among thousands (or a handful if that's what you have) of samples in seconds. latest release updates a lesser-used feature to find your own sites with which to calculate kinship: https://t.co/etNxULXsk4
thanks @johanneskoester for reporting!
RNAseq counting tools are not perfect. I simulated 240 GTEx samples to test multiple tools. Below I show the difference between actual and estimated counts for each simulated sample.
But, what is causing this? And will it affect differential expression? (1/7) #Bioinformatics
When I was in school & college, I loved biology at least partly because of all of the beautiful figures of cells & organelles in some of the fabulous books. But this is just next-level. I don't know how any young person can resist diving deep into the beauty & mystery of life.
Many people struggle to understand #Bayesian updating! So I made this super cool #Python@matplotlib#educational, interactive dashboard.
Given a positive test, '+', what is the probability that the an 'Event' is happening? Change the probability of the event, P(Event), true positive, P(+|Event), and false positive, P(-|Event), conditional probabilities, then watch the change in the posterior, P(Event|+)!
I also added P(Not Event|+), P(Event|-) & P(Not Event|-).

We ingest 0.5 to 5 g of microplastics a week ☕️🫖💧, which can disrupt the intestinal barrier & cause inflammation. New study 🐁 finds calorie restriction makes plastic worse. What should you do? … https://t.co/Ya76GtjloO
One of the weird things about working in the #Python community is that our core technologies are mostly not written in Python.
If someone wants to contribute code, now they have two problems.

bedder-tools 😜 is the next generation of bedtools from @aaronquinlan lab. It's early days, but we think the foundation is solid. We're looking for feedback on the rust code. Have a look: https://t.co/amynzntTen and specifically about design here: https://t.co/JM6BROlq6o
BioAlpha - hundreds to thousands times faster than Seurat/scanpy. Now you can run the full single cell pipeline for million cell dataset - under a minute. @ksonpham @bioturing https://t.co/OQ4dus6DKz
The essence of being an emotionally intelligent person is being able to know when an emotion deserves a response and when an emotion deserves to be acknowledged, experienced, and then politely shown the door.
I don’t usually post personal news but Clinicians have told us to pull every lever.
Our daughter has with #dipg Brain cancer. There is no cure and typically 9m life expectancy.
If anyone knows of trials then please get in contact! #braincancer#childrenscancer@CR_UK
If an ASO lowers target RNA 50% in bulk brain tissue, is it 50% in all cells or 100% in half? Are cell types all impacted equally? Does CSF reflect neuronal target engagement?
We did single-cell seq in ASO-treated mice & NHPs to find out https://t.co/2rR8ICVm0s
