I had to fight this huge black widow right next to my front door last night. I won with a shovel unscathed

There is only one way

First time seeing a celebrity in LA - didnt notice but people were taking photos and shaking their hand

August marks the 5 year anniversary of starting our lab. What a wild ride. Thanks to all our trainees, mentors, collaborators and funders. Here's to another five years

Stop 👏 building 👏 python/R👏 packages! we show that well described methods in academic papers can serve as the specification for an LLM to create methods on demand. This can serve to reduce package maintenance while ensuring accessibility in any programming language arxiv.org/abs/2507.22324

I switched from running six days per week to four days running 5 miles per day and two days vinyasa flow yoga. Great synergy between strength and stretch of yoga makes the running much easier

I love this as an intuition about why we cannot interpret distance in umap space

We put flank steak in the crock pot with tomato and peppers and onion and wow I've never had flank steak before

Guess which month I gave three presentations and had two NIH proposals due

Going to be really hard to finish writing this R01 resubmission next week now that I have to report for jury duty screening

The health monitoring technology we have available is incredible - reducing blood sugar spikes using continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) is immediately brining my resting heart rate down

Did you know you can buy a continuous glucose monitor for $50 that lasts 15 days? Not diabetic but I got one for research and it's changing my life. Highly recommended. Naturally next step is trying ketosis. Keto flu starting now

📢 Exciting news! Our paper, "AttentionSmithy: A Modular Framework for Rapid Transformer Development," has been accepted at TMLR! 🎉 openreview.net/forum?id=0jh... #AttentionSmithy #Transformer #AI #MachineLearning #TMLR #OpenReview #Bioinformatics #Genomics #NLP #NeuralArchitectureSearch

Any one else getting the sense that grant reviewers are reading less and less of what you write? Just got two summary statements listing a bunch of problems as not addressed when they had whole subsections devoted

Dear Researcher, The journal sent the following message on the date of 10 March 2025. You failed to receive this message, or intentionally you are not responding (sorry if I am wrong). Kindly request your immediate attention to this email and respond within 24 hours to end it smoothly.

Just paid for grammarly and wow it's incredible how far this has come since I tried it last

Our yard smells strongly of jasmine

Greetings Meyer Jesse G, We have genuinely emailed you quite a lot of times but received no response, so we'd like to try once more as consideration.

🧬 New preprint! We built scTransient, a method to detect transient molecular events in single-cell omics using wavelets + pseudotime. Reveals overlooked spikes in hematopoiesis, macrophage transition, and cell cycle. 📄 doi.org/10.1101/2025...

My PhD dissertation was supported by a NSF award that I helped my PI write about my project. It was my first grant writing experience and proof that what we were doing mattered. Just a few hundred thousand supported at least two papers that were cited over 200 times together #withoutNSF

The president is recommending a 40% cut to next year’s NIH budget. This would be disastrous for our nation’s health and economy. Please contact your representatives, especially if they are Republicans, and tell them why this cannot happen. An easy option: 5calls.org

Tried the blue apron refrigerated meals that they ship to your house recently and super surprised at the quality. Double the price of frozen meals but cheaper than going out, and flavor better than either of those alternatives.

68 new NIH awards made last week. This is great progress!

Can someone explain to me how I can bring my toddler to Costco and leave without a $20 package of cookies or stuffed animals

imagine finding these trees and thinking "I better cut these down and sell them"

These are the only slides you need to see in my ppt

A great evening of science for #TeamMassSpec. Many thanks to @amgen.bsky.social for hosting LAMMS Spring Meeting featuring talks by Pavel Bondarenko and @j-my-sci.bsky.social @cedarssinai.bsky.social

Not thrilled about that Severence finale. Where do they think they are going?

I'm tired of all these nonstick pans claiming nonstick and then quickly becoming full stick so I finally got a cast iron pan. There are so many rules I'm sure I will ruin it

Exclusive: NIH officials have advised scientists to remove reference to mRNA vaccines from their grant applications, in expectation the Trump administration intends to abandon most research in the field. By @arthurallen202.bsky.social kffhealthnews.org/news/article...

90% of people diagnosed with pancreatic cancer die from the disease. That's why the medical community is excited about the results of a small trial in which nearly half of the pancreatic cancer patients who received an mRNA vaccine for the disease remained relapse-free three years later.

This is the only mention of the NIH that I could find in the whole CR that just passed in the US congress - it appears to be the same NIH budget except the CURES act is cut $280 million

The budget will pass and it includes a $280 million cut to the NIH. It also apparently removes congressional mandates to spend the NIH funds on certain things. Perhaps the IC funding will redistribute dramatically

Now that I have a bicycle I'm even more confused why most cyclists ride on the line. I'm always as far away from traffic as possible

A recent study found that cervical cancer deaths in young women have plummeted since the introduction of the human papillomavirus vaccine.
