Glad to be part of such an open and collaborative community pushing #SpatialBio forward! Thanks for inviting and hosting us @kevinyamauchi.bsky.social @lucamarconato.bsky.social & Giovanni Palla 🙏 I focused on the intro notebook and improving usability for first time users ⚒️ check it out! ->

Closing 2024, scverse celebrates growth and collaboration! Huge thanks to everyone on this journey and our core team & board (@fabiantheis.bsky.social, @francescafinotello.bsky.social, @steglelab.bsky.social, Nir Yosef, @panosroussos.bsky.social, @robp.bsky.social). Here's to an inspiring 2025!

Oof, software releases are always so nerve racking 😅 just updated bento-tools.readthedocs.io to v2.1.4 🥳 We now support 1-to-many spatial indexing for mapping cells to multiple organelles/subcellular domains, enabling the modeling of complex spatial relationships! #spatialbiology 🧪🧬🖥️

This looks amazing! Really appreciate the focus on documentation and usability.

that's a lot of git commits

I'm not in NLP or javascript, but found compromise.cool is a very cool example of "less is more" ❤️ #opensource

Sign of the times, no more bluebird on the biorxiv engagement tab..

Hey science folks 🧪! Trying to stay on top of #SpatialBiology convos, tech, studies, conferences, etc.? Well here's a feed for you! bsky.app/profile/did:...

oof, this was probably inevitable with the status quo. but also eLife's impact factor would simply drop over time to reflect the "lower quality" if it really is the case. seems like a hasty decision by Clarivate. 🧪 www.science.org/content/arti...

Restarting a previous discussion on here: How convinced are #SingleCell people by cell-cell communication methods? I'm still at "not very" 😅 I see them used everywhere, but I don't know of any really good way to validate them... More importantly, I don't know of any *non-simulated* training data.

This is hard to hear. A lot more cuts to Federal science funding are likely in the offing. We need to find new/better/more ways to drive interdisciplinary collaboration and cooperation in science 🧪

Now that more of the spatial community is here, I've put together a feed for #SpatialBiology! Check it out here: bsky.app/profile/did:... Also, if you think it's missing posts, msg me the post and I'll see how I can improve things 🧪🖥️🧬

cue Python vs R 🧪

Safety of these individuals is also a concern of mine, as I’ve mentioned on another thread 🥲 But as we expand our own networks with new voices, hopefully we can brainstorm together how to protect everyone from harm 🧠 These online spaces are communities, and we gotta look out for one another 💕

So.. according to this umap, what cell type are you? 🧬🖥️

Agreed, reminder to myself to be mindful of inclusivity, biases and echo chambers when curating my own feed. 💡Related; I'm putting together a #spatialbiology starter pack, please let me know if you would like to be included!

Feeling blessed to be able to travel for science 😊 Shout-out to #scverse for hosting the SpatialData Workshop in Basel this week!

Genomics, evolution, and more starter pack! Help build community with this starter pack. This list is currently incomplete. Want to be included? Reply and I will remedy that! go.bsky.app/JjvzkWU

Another helpful resource for people to check out is @clearsky.app by @thieflord.dev: clearsky.app 🌐✨ You can use the site to look up who’s blocking a user 🛑, who that user is blocking 🙅🏽‍♀️, any lists the user is a part of 👥, and their message history (if authorized) 🦋!

Great list of curated individuals in the space! Though I recommend checking out who exactly is included 🧐 you can either "follow all" or follow accounts individually

Thanks for all the recent follows, I'm happy to see many familiar faces 😊 I'd like to briefly introduce myself here. I am a #bioinformatics scientist in #SanDiego building methods for #spatialbiology. I love building open source tools for the community and am excited to meet all of you!
