Ben Goudey from Australian BioCommons has been INCREDIBLE teaching #MachineLearning in the morning workshops. He’s so engaging and can get most to understand the 101 of regression/classification/cross validation etc! (Note most in this course don’t have this background) #EMBLAPhD @emblaustralia.org

Been seeing AI thrown a lot and I’m not sure everyone knows what it means. Eduardo Eyras gives a brilliant summary from #AI to deep neural networks, for all to understand! #EMBLAPHD @emblaustralia.org

Mechanistic modelling with ODEs and Virtual Cell Models with foundational models this morning at #EMBLAPhD with SAiGENCIs Lan and Anthony - looking forward to more #AI 🦾🤖 @emblaustralia.org @saigenci.bsky.social @acepigenetics.bsky.social

Really interesting topics/philosophies on AI this morning at #emblaphd 2025! Strong start to the course, I look forward to the discussion! #AI @emblaustralia.org @acepigenetics.bsky.social @saigenci.bsky.social

📣 @saigenci.bsky.social congratulate Professor Jose Polo on his election as Fellow of the Australian Academy of Health & Medical Sciences (AAHMS). Jose is Program Lead for Cancer Epigenetics @SAiGENCI and Director @acepigenetics.bsky.social. Many congratulations Jose! aahms.org/news/29-of-a...

That’s a wrap! Huge thank you to everyone who joined us for #ABACBS2025 & a big shout-out to the Adelaide bioinfo community who worked their butts off. Couldn’t have asked for a better crew or a better venue than Adelaide Oval. @wessidepraxis.bsky.social @linsalrob.bsky.social

This was one of the best workshops I have ever been to. I came out of it with a Wasm app for making pharokka/phold/phynteny's genome maps - available at gbouras13.github.io/phold-plot-w... It runs the browser almost instantly - please give it a go with your phages of interest! #ABACBS2025

Spatial Transcriptomics analyses with scider, hoodscanR and more.. this afternoon with Polo lab bioinformaticians. Session lead by the amazing @ningliu311.bsky.social and with help from the incredible @noraliu.bsky.social and myself! #ABACBS2025

Client-side bioinformatics workshop done ✅ massive thanks to legends @lonsbio.bsky.social @lfeatherstone.bsky.social @torstenseemann.bsky.social #ABACBS2025

Workshops underway this morning! #ABACBS2025

Using an elegant single-cell RNA-seq analysis approach, researchers show that the gene Eed is essential for guiding facial bone formation and early tissue growth. buff.ly/g4JqhjJ

A true privilege getting to know and work with all of you! What an amazing conference 💕 #ABACBS2025

@acepigenetics.bsky.social team at #ABACBS2025! Grateful for the chance to help plan and organise this year’s meeting and to chair the single cell and spatial session, where my colleague and dear friend Ning is our invited speaker. Biggest congrats to @mmohenska.bsky.social for her poster award!

And that’s a wrap for the #ABACBS2025 conference portion of the event! So many incredible talks, seeing old friends and meeting new faces. Loved every moment - onto the workshops next!!

Loved hearing Dr. Ryan Wick’s talk on genome assemblies with Autocycler. Really amazing hearing from him as I use a lot of his tools in my every day work! #ABACBS2025 ⚫️🔴 🔵⚪️

BenchHub enables an inclusive and transparent ecosystem for community-focused benchmarking in computational biology #ABACBS2025 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Star this repo ASAP github.com/fabilab/iplotx Fabio Zanini’s package is everything and more #ABACBS2025

A gymnastic start to day 2 with a keynote from Ami Bhatt #ABACBS2025

Time for @zaminiqbal.bsky.social ‘s keynote #ABACBS2025

I might be biased.. but this is one of my favourite ABACBS conferences I’ve ever been to #ABACBS2025

What and incredible speaker! @zaminiqbal.bsky.social I really enjoyed learning all about bacterial plasmids and their evolution. PSA they are also recruiting in Bath UK - go talk to him for the deets #ABACBS2025

Gotta love a developmental talk! Now Dr Hieu Nim with jaw dropping zebrafish visuals - spatio temporal at single cell level - gorgeous #ABACBS2025

Studying cancer fusion expression with 10X flex system @jovmaksimovic.bsky.social at #ABACBS2025 🧬

@ningliu311.bsky.social BLOWING the audience away today with his selection of spatial transcriptomics packages #ABACBS2025🍏🍕🧫 find him today if interested using them.

What are the genes that cause Long COVID and how can we find these genes, Sindy Pinero from the University of South Australia gave a great talk on their approach to answer these and more using their multi-omics framework. @abacbs.bsky.social #ABACBS2025

If you like my poster please vote for me!! Poster 127 🦘see you in the afternoon session for some spatial transcriptomics!! 🧬 #marsupials #ABACBS2025

Spatial transcriptomics, spatial CNV inference, plus ovarian cancer study of tumour micro environments and more … @alforrest.bsky.social see publication for some work #ABACBS2025 www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Front row seat at the #ABACBS2025 grant discussions- bioinformaticians need to support each other we are not competing with each other- #bioinformatics

Full house at #ABACBS2025

What an incredible Shark’s EMCR panel. So much advice and new points of view for our EMCRs 🦈👏 #ABACBS2025

Holy shark, it’s an academic shark tank in #ABACBS2025

Lunch with a view #ABACBS2025 #COMBINE2025

What a stunning lineup for the #ABACBS2025 EMCR Shark Tank panel on navigating research careers and crafting winning grants and fellowships! @abacbs.bsky.social

☕Li et al. uncover a connection between #metabolic cues and #mitochondria protein degradation, showing that specifically leucine stabilizes outer mitochondrial membrane proteins by inhibiting ubiquitylation and promoting mitochondrial respiration. bit.ly/48t7ZPw

The Shark Tank has begun! A fantastic initiative by the postdoc community to help build collaboration and support postdocs in pitching their grants. @abacbs.bsky.social #ABACBS2025

Very excited to be in Adelaide to attend #ABACBS2025 . Australia is a powerhouse of microbial genomics, and indeed of bioinformatics, so am very much looking forward to meeting everyone, old friends and new, and speaking tomorrow!

This merch is next level! @abacbs.bsky.social #ABACBS2025

SPECTACULAR first day for #ABACBS2025

Can’t wait for tmr’s #ABACBS2025 EMCR Shark Tank! We are all ready to go!

Swag! #ABACBS2025

Some last minute touches… #ABACBS2025 #bioinformatics #pitching

Still my favorite 3D reconstruction of a pancreatic tissue. Using the CODA workflow, we mapped a billion individual cells in 3D. Red: pre-cancer lesions Navy blue: ducts Light blue: islets of Langerhans Purple: acini Green: blood vessels Yellow: fat More here: www.nature.com/articles/s41...
