AI in biology: "I read about some new computational method...get excited because it’s exactly what I need...I try the method...Most of the time things don’t work...I have seen this play out so many times my default assumption is nothing is going to work"

We still can’t predict much of anything in biology
Biology is hard. Yes, even for AI.

Our newest preprint is out! I'm super proud of this work. We found: Obesity turns some adipose tissue-derived fibroblasts into immune-active players in a highly atherogenic atherosclerosis mouse model.

Adipose tissue-derived fibroblasts engage in immune-stromal crosstalk during obesity-aggravated atherosclerosis in mice
Background Atherosclerosis is a common disorder where changes in vascular wall and in the surrounding perivascular adipose tissue are evident. However, how multiple cell types contribute to the diseas...

I never imagined I'd see this day, but clearly I didn't have enough imagination. NIH is going to terminate ongoing (and of course all future) research that focuses on gender identity, inclusion, environmental justice, anything "deemed DEI" etc.

Exclusive: NIH to terminate hundreds of active research grants
Studies that touch on LGBT+ health, gender identity and DEI in the biomedical workforce could be terminated, according to documents obtained by Nature.

NIH hoitaa tieteen hakukoneita, jotka ovat joka päivä välttämättömiä bio/lääketieteessä koko maailmassa. Ne ovat nyt kaikki kumossa. Ei liittyne siihen, että DOGE veti eilen töpselin kokonaiselta valtion IT-osastolta. Mutta muistuttaa, miten tärkeä USA on koko maailmalle - eikä vain sotahommissa.
