Great meeting!!! Amazing talks and posters today also.

Equally important, our meeting’s simple rule is holding throughout the sessions, with graduate students and postdoctoral scholars reliably asking the first 2 questions after each presentation. A privilege to organize this with Sally Temple and Christine Mummery! Next edition in December 2027!

Remarkable energy at the inaugural @cshlnews.bsky.social conference on Assembloids and complex cell–cell interactions across tissues and systems A wonderful series of talks so far highlighting advances & discoveries being made with these self-organizing systems and a few common themes are emerging

That’s a wrap on 2025! Thanks to everyone who came to #cshlassembloid

Second day of Genome Informatics #GI2025 began with the session “Genome Assembly and Sequence Algorithms" Yun William Yu presented “Average-case Analysis of Seed-Chain-Extend under Random Mutations" genome.cshlp.org/content/33/7/1175 providing theoretical guarantees for the popular seed-chain-extend

A thread on #GI2025 's first session 👇🏻

The first session is PANGENOMES #GI2025. Alexander Schönhuth is delivering the first talk on "Generating synthetic genotypes using diffusion models" Paper: academic.oup.com/bioinformati... Code: github.com/TheMody/Gene...

@benlangmead.bsky.social kicking off the start of Genome Informatics! #gi2025 @cshlnews.bsky.social

Ben Langmead @benlangmead.bsky.social delivers the official opening for this year's Genome Informatics Conference #GI2025 at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory. List of talks and posters: meetings.cshl.edu/abstracts.as...

#GI2025 is about to start. I hope you'll enjoy this edition!

Excited to be at the Genome Informatics conference #GI2025 in Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory this week! I’ll be sharing my current work on using machine learning to improve the reliability of Metagenomics classification for analzing gut microbiota and soil samples. Let's connect!

Genome Informatics starts tonight 🧬 #gi2025

This week's meeting is Immune Engineering & Cellular Immunotherapy 🎃 #cshlimmeng

Having a great time discussing our research on preventing photoreceptor degeneration, listening to inspiring talks, and meeting old friends at the Cold Spring Harbor Neurobiology of Drosophila conference! #cshldros @cshlmeetings.bsky.social @cshlaboratory.bsky.social @cshlmeetings.bsky.social 🪰🧪

Conference week at CSHL on the Neurobiology of Drosophila. Come hear my talk on how a deterministic visual system is generated from stochastic processes. #cshldros

It’s time for the fly party with my fly friends! #CSHLDros

Barber Lab representing at #CSHLDros! 🪰 4/5 of us have posters tonight.

The twenty-first biennial Neurobiology of Drosophila meeting started last night! We are excited to host everyone this week, use #cshldros for all of your posts!

Everything is terrible but we're 2 days away from the most fun event on earth, the CSHL Fly Neuro Meeting!!! @cshlmeetings.bsky.social My last blog post about it was 8 years ago (www.brains-explained.com/fly-neurobio...) but I think it still holds up, especially the abstract book roller coaster

Less than two weeks left to register for the inaugural conference on Assembloids & Complex Cell-Cell Interactions at @cshlnews.bsky.social Check out the topics and amazing lineup of speakers!

The second meeting on Cell Fate Conversions began last night! Use #cshldirect for any posts from the meeting and have a great week!

How do tumors grow, spread & interact with their surroundings? Scientists gathered at CSHL last week to share answers that could shape the future of cancer therapies. Read more: www.cshl.edu/go-inside-ca...

Lady day here #cshlcancer @cshlmeetings.bsky.social Congrats to @lsajournal.org travel award winner Debolina Ganguly from Judith Agudo’s group!! Debolina is exploring how tissue-specific differences in antigen presentation can modulate the systemic immune response. Excellent talk!!

Congrats to @lsajournal.org travel award winner Jess Hebert from Monte Winslow’s group!! Jess presented innovative new mouse models (already available at @jacksonlab.bsky.social) to engineer complex genotypes that modulate cancer metastasis. Presented here #cshlcancer @cshlmeetings.bsky.social

This happened while the fantastic #CSHLCancer meeting is going on @cshlnews.bsky.social and @cshlmeetings.bsky.social Take breaks and enjoy nature at Cold Spring Harbor!
