Very happy to introduce jsPCA, a fast and interpretable computational framework for spatial transcriptomics that simultaneously identifies spatial domains and variable genes across multi-slice and multi-sample data.

We (with @nicolasdray.bsky.social @zenlabpasteur.bsky.social) are happy to release officially FishFeats, our #napari plugin to streamline 3D smFish/RNA quantification! 🎊 Available here: github.com/gletort/Fish... user documentation: gletort.github.io/FishFeats/

1 To predict the behaviour of a primate, would you rather base your guess on a closely related species or one with a similar brain shape? We looked at brains & behaviours of 70 species, you’ll be surprised! 🧵Thread on our new preprint with @r3rt0.bsky.social , doi.org/10.1101/2025...

GRN inference algorithms often build on prior knowledge of e.g. TF binding. Build up-to-date priors with our new tool SPONGE, now out in Bioinformatics: academic.oup.com/bioinformati...

MOTL is finally out in Genome Biology! Work led by David Hirst and @anaisbaudot.bsky.social If you are interested in multi-omics matrix factorization when few samples are available (e.g. rare diseases), have a look at it! #multiomics #machinelearning #transferlearning

Going back to Paris after four days of awesome science! Really happy to have contributed to #ISMBECCB2025 with a keynote talk in the @netbio.bsky.social. Thanks again @anaisbaudot.bsky.social and all #NetBio commitee for the invitation! @institutpasteur.bsky.social #singlecell #AI #netbio

🚨 We're hiring! NCMBM @ncmbm.bsky.social is looking for 2 new group leaders to join our vibrant research community. Ready to build your own group with strong support and a solid startup package? Interested and attending #ISMBECCB2025? Let’s connect! 🔗 www.jobbnorge.no/en/available...

🚨 Excited to announce our first keynote for #NetBio 2025: Laura Cantini (@cantinilab.bsky.social)! She is sharing cutting-edge work on multi-modal learning for single-cell data integration, tackling how to combine diverse omics and spatial data to unlock new insights into cellular heterogeneity.

Flying to Liverpool for #ISMBECCB2025 @iscb.bsky.social. This year the lab is well represented with @jkobject.com presenting scPRINT in #MLCSB, Jules presenting two posters at #MLCSB: scConfluence and STORIES. I will finally, give a keynote at #NETBIO. Come to see us at the conference!

Fantastic opportunity to launch your research group following the @embl.org model in a great environment with a solid startup package and access to state-of-the-art resources. Join us at the @ncmbm.bsky.social, part of the @nordicembl.bsky.social, at @uio.no Feel free to reach out if you have Qs.

Two weeks ago, I had the pleasure to discuss the research activity of my team @institutpasteur.bsky.social in the panel discussion "How is AI and data-driven innovation reshaping oncology" at @parissaclay.bsky.social SPRING 2025 in @ecolepolytechnique.bsky.social #ParisSaclaySPRING #SPRING25

Kicking off our afternoon session, @cantinilab.bsky.social discusses her dual approach to capture both multi-modal dimensionality reduction and molecular network inference. She gave a very nice overview of her work! #NetBioMed2025 #NetSci2025 @verapancaldi.bsky.social

Before lunch break Elma Dervic gave us a very quick talk on how to build comorbidity networks from data. I loved her visualization through time. More amazing talks at #NetBioMed2025 after lunch, so stay tuned! #NetSci2025 @verapancaldi.bsky.social

After coffee break Anna Niarakis discusses her approach to #digitaltwins, a novel conception to treat complex human pathologies. If we haven't been able to build artificial agents capable of openended evolution, can we truly build biological digital twins? #NetSci2025 #NetBioMed2025

Now @lmrocha.bsky.social goes deeper into the #digitaltwins paradigm, discussing how to build multiscale models for this purpose. What's the temporal limit when building these complex models? Can we build something as complex as biological architectures? #NetBioMed2025 #NetSci2025

Iker Nuñez-Carpintero shows us his integrative #multilayer approach to explore rare neuromuscular disorders. Particularly he's focusing on cardiac and skeletal muscle myopathies. Join us at #NetBioMed2025, a @netsciconf.bsky.social satellite at #NetSci2025!

Kristel Van Steen kicks off our #NetBioMed2025 Satellite discussing how to use #networkscience to develop individual medical networks, going towards personalized medicine! @netsciconf.bsky.social @verapancaldi.bsky.social

Our second talk of the day corresponds to Natasa Przulj, who gave us a detailed explanation on how to use #AI techniques in order to build #complexnetworks based on multi-omics! #NetBioMed2025 #NetSci2025 @verapancaldi.bsky.social
