Installed #Rstats for the first time in a year - my laptop ran out of battery before I managed to install 2 libraries... 🤕 After working with `uv` for some time, I don't think I can suffer this experience :pain:

One more reason to love Python! Thank you for staying true to your values ❤️

Finally, someone has solved a real problem with AI! No more having to take a paper in the format for a journal that rejected you, and reformat it for a new journal. Well done!! formatmypaper.com

BIG ANNOUNCEMENT📣: I haven’t been this excited to be part of something new in 15 years… Thrilled to reveal the passion project I’ve been working on for the past year and a half!🙀🥳 (thread 👇)

🧭 Colorectal cancer doesn’t follow a single path. Using spatial proteomics on ~500 tumors, we found distinct trajectories from early to late stage, involving the whole tumor microenvironment and its metabolic state. 📄 Preprint: arxiv.org/abs/2510.05083 #SpatialBiology #CRC #ImageBasedProfiling 1/5

New work from Iva Buljan @ivabuljan.bsky.social in our lab! We mapped how human tissue architecture changes with age using ~25k histology slides from 983 donors. This is the first body-wide atlas of human microanatomy. 📄 Preprint: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

We will have our next community meeting on Tuesday, 2025-10-14 at 18:00 CEST! Yimin Zheng will be presenting on LazySlide, a Python framework for whole slide image (WSI) analysis. (Zoom registration link and more information in thread!) 🧵

The LBI-NetMed in Vienna is looking for an Administrative Manager to power our research operations. Key role in finance, HR, and partner coordination. Apply here: lbg.ac.at/news/adminis... #ResearchJobs #ScienceAdmin #LBINetMed #Vienna #JobAlert

Great to be at the 2025 @OeGMBT meeting in Innsbruck and hear the diverse research made by the local community, in particular by the young researchers who presented their work. Thank you to the organizers, and to Markus Mandl for the invitation to talk!

CAR T cells showcase the enormous potential of cell therapies, but often fail due to lack of evolutionary optimization. Today in @nature.com , we use #CELLFIE to engineer cell therapies at scale and share the largest resource of CRISPR screens in CAR T cells. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Congratulations to Lisa Kleissl in our group, who won the best short talk award at the FEBS Advanced Course on Immunology, metabolism and ageing in Matrei am Brenner, Austria!

So, right now, the only reliable way to diagnose endometriosis is with exploratory surgery. But finally, real scientists (instead of male scientists), are on the job & of course they’ve identified multiple markers in menstrual blood that point to noninvasive testing. www.science.org/content/arti...

I received some old microscopy slides from the 1800s, when at-home microscopes made it possible to look at hidden worlds of diatoms, polycystina, and other teeny tiny things. I made this website so people today can take a look too: microspeci.men Enjoy! #scienceisforeveryone #microscopy #HistSci

LazySlide 🦥 just hit 100 GitHub stars! 🎉 Our free, open-source framework is making whole slide analysis easier than ever. Built on scverse 🐍, it handles everything from tissue segmentation to multi-omics workflows 🤹 & deep learning 🏋️. Big thanks to the community! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Organs such as our lungs and kidneys go through a burst of ageing that starts in our 20s, decades before others, such as the uterus. Read my @newscientist.bsky.social piece about this cool study on how organs age at different rates by @afrendeiro.bsky.social. www.newscientist.com/article/2458...

Excited to share our work @science.org. led by our incredible @tommyz626.bsky.social at @rockefelleruniv.bsky.social! By profiling 21 million single cells across life stages, we reveal aging as distinct, development-like transitions, with dramatic cell population changes in specific time windows!
