For fellow bioinformatics friends applying to potential new job openings at top universities in Zurich, a hint: if you see stickers like this at your employer workspace, is it because HR and management are doing an amazing job at helping employees or is the place toxic? Think

Researchers at the Crick, @cam.ac.uk and Sanquin Research Amsterdam have made a key discovery about how the immune system can switch from ‘on’ to ‘off’ so quickly. The findings could offer potential new avenues for treating cancer or autoimmune conditions. www.crick.ac.uk/news/2026-01...

TF-MINDI is out! A new method to learn cis-regulatory codes through rich embeddings of TF binding sites. TF-MINDI decomposes motif neighbourhoods, and works downstream of any sequence-to-function deep learning model. We deeply study the enhancer code in human neural development, check out the thread

ENA data + genome submissions are so weird and complicated that even chatGPT completely hallucinates about how things should work...amazing.

Linkedin is trying to tell me something…

Intrigued by a long-standing conundrum in small RNA biology—how nuclear Argonaute proteins silence transposons when they *need* target transcription for their own recruitment—we studied the piRNA pathway. And found a hidden RNA-decay axis from Piwi to the RNA exosome.

New blog post: Start webdev with Python, Apache and Docker grexor.github.io/start_web_de... #webdev #python #apache #mod_wsgi

Do you have basic knowledge of Python, HTML and Javascript and you would like to start full stack web-dev? Hope this video and very short introduction can provide you with basic building blocks to start creating beautiful web applications.

Could it be that today’s obsession with “performance” in corporate, academic, and for-profit economic environments—where money translates into papers and grants—actually hinders creativity? Put more simply: play may be all we need, but play requires a high level of freedom.
