My main gripe with the alphafold example is how it shows you need decades and decades of high quality data, well structured, open and accessible to train a model -- and yet they always gloss over it and pretend it's just AI and magic. No, we need to continuously invest in real data and FAIR data.

Gràcies a @comunicacioaccc.bsky.social pel premi! Em fa molta il·lusió que hagi estat amb un #haiku sobre la Dra. Casas, amb qui sento una gran connexió professional i personal 💚. Gràcies també a en @simonperera.bsky.social per haver-me animat a participar en el concurs!

Herbaria are invaluable resources and now even more so! There is so much unexpected information we can gather from them like genetic or phenological information, pests presence, and much more. Is a huge mistake for a university to get rid of them.

Desde que empecé a hacer ikebana en 2019 durante una estancia de investigación en Japón, tenía el sueño de hacer divulgación combinando #ikebana y #botánica. Aprovechando la visita a Europa de mi sensei, #KayokoKondo, hemos organizado unos talleres en @irnasa.bsky.social. No os lo perdáis! 🌸🌷🌻

I defended my PhD 10 years ago today. That was the least remarkable thing that happened that day. Sharing something I wrote about it last year. Since then "the horrors persist but so do we." And with dignity.
