We have moved to our new home! Our new office is now on the top floor of the Center for Metabolic Research Building!🎉

Halfpipe, our tool for analyzing RNA-seq data from metabolic RNA labeling experiments, is out!!!🎉 Congratulations to Jason and the team including collaborators from @molgen.mpg.de and @uniklinik-fr.bsky.social ! The code is available on GitHub. #RNAseq#SLAMseq#RNAmetaboliclabeling

Today’s #FebruArty prompt is ‘divided’ & mitosis feels like an excellent response 🐡

Yes, if you use generative ai in any creative field, I am actually better than you. There’s no debate

just read a paper about how melanoma incidence in grey horses is due to a cnv and 😊 hihi bioinformatians helped answer this question i've been asking myself for 15 years ! ! ! it's such a cool job that we do

Big update to our tool alevin-fry-atac, for preprocessing of scATAC-seq data (www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...). The main improvements center around optimizations to mapping speed, reaching almost 3x the speed of chromap at 32 threads. Some opts are general & can be backported to sshash!

Only a few days left to apply!

How to do differential expression with scRNAseq data? State of the art is "pseudo-bulk" analysis with RNA-seq methods like edgeR or DESeq2, where "cell type" is encoded as discrete categories. Biologically, discrete categories are not always the most appropriate concept.(1/3) doi.org/10.1038/s415...

maybe i post here abt science or abt art or maybe both !!!!! :) my supervisor wants to make a lab acc anyways
