Delighted to present Latent Interaction Variational Inference (LIVI), a framework for trans-eQTL mapping at single-cell resolution that I developed during my PhD together with colleagues from @steglelab.bsky.social 1/n

We are hiring a Research Software Engineer to enhance and maintain the SpatialData framework. We will work together with colleagues at EMBL, DKFZ, GSK, and across the scverse community. 🔗 Deadline: 15/02/2026 embl.wd103.myworkdayjobs.com/en-US/EMBL/d...

We are looking for a Software Developer to work on R/Python interoperability for single-cell and spatial omics methods. 🔗 Apply here: jobs.dkfz.de/en/jobs/1683...

It was fantastic to reunite with the teammates in the Bay for the 2nd #scverse conference. It’s been an incredible three years together, and I’m beyond excited about what we’ll build next.

Back from #scverse25 and feeling inspired by what @scverse.bsky.social has achieved over the last years. Impressive tools, a vibrant community and we even had a reunion with our two alumni Danila and Max Frank. We also presented our latest findings from the lab 👇

MIFA rests on 4 key pillars: - Clear metadata for annotations - Incentivise the production of annotated datasets - Reduce the number of formats used for annotations - Make data accessible to all Huge thanks to all collaborators—can’t wait to see MIFA in action!

My favorite part of last-year #scverse conference was to finally meet in-person many developers that I only knew from their GitHub username! Submissions and travel grant applications close in 3 days. Find out more and apply at scverse.org/conference2025 @scverse.bsky.social

💰 Travel Grants Available for scverse conference 2025! 💰 Did you know we are offering grants to help anyone in financial need attend our annual conference? 🌍 🧵 #scverse #scverse2025 #SingleCell #Conference #StanfordUniversity #TravelGrant

What a special atmosphere! #ELMI2025 Poster Session 1 on Helix A last night. The perfect environment to exchange with friends & colleagues about #bioimaging #RDM: - OMERO-vitessce - IO-FAST initiative - @nfdi4bioimage.bsky.social Data Stewardship Talks, Workshops & Poster Session 2 up ahead today!🔬

📣 Mark your calendars! The 2025 edition of the scverse conference will take place on 17-19 November at Stanford University (US) scverse.org/conference20... Call for abstracts and registrations coming soon!

The @chanzuckerberg.bsky.social Cell Science Meeting in Chicago just concluded. I had the opportunity to present the latest advancements in spatial omics within the #scverse ecosystem, highlighting our efforts to scale our infrastructure in preparation for the datasets of tomorrow.

If you work with Xenium data segmentation, you may want to check out Segger! Segger provides accurate and scalable segmentation for IIS and FISH-based spatial omics datasets, using a novel heterogenous GNN approach. Authors: elihei.bsky.social and Andrew Moorman.

🚀 We’re very excited to share our latest preprint on OME-Zarr! 🚀 Our report on the 2024 OME-NGFF Workflows Hackathon is a deep dive into the status of OME-Zarr and the great work that happened last November at the BioVisionCenter in Zurich. 🔗 Read the preprint: osf.io/preprints/bi... 🧵 (1/15)

The latest #scverse hackathon on spatial omics has really been a blast! A small example: Day 2 was planned from 8:30 am to 6:00 pm, yet we had people hacking until 9-10 pm! (pics 2-3). Looking forward to the new in-person event!

I had the opportunity to present my work at BIOINFO 2024 in Gyeongju, Korea. It was great to meet previous colleagues from Heidelberg, Jeongbin park and Hyobin Jeong, and be welcomed by such a vibrant research community!

In September, I represented the SpatialData team at SCG 2024. I was honored to receive a best poster award; I want to thank my team (in particular Giovanni, Tim, Wouter, Kevin, and Sonja) who made the project possible. In the pic, Danila and @mkoutrouli.bsky.social from @scverse-team.bsky.social.
