Hello Bluesky! We're plus.maths.org opening a door onto the world of maths, for anyone who is curious about the world and the maths that is changing our lives!

So excited to see @hermathsstory.bsky.social on Bluesky, and to learn about all the wonderful stories of women in mathematics that they have to share. Do follow for upcoming stories, and don't hesitate to take a look at all the stories published so far at hermathsstory.eu! Welcome!

Our new tool for multi-modal data analysis! nipalsMCIA implements multiple co-inertia analysis (MCIA) via nonlinear partial iterative least squares (NIPALS). It's great for large datasets commonly found in multi-omic single-cell studies, and allows for easy out-of-sample embeddings.

The Society for Developmental Biology has released a statement on the Unprecedented Disruptions to Biomedical Research in the United States.

Two things concerned scientists can do: 1. Call your members of Congress and explain how disruptions in funding would be disastrous for jobs and research in their district/state. 2a. Call your dept. chair and express your concern. The goal is to end the convo w/…

Study sections are the review panels that allocate NIH research grants. They bring in experts from around the country and have to be scheduled many months in advance; they provide the funds that keep the nation's biomedical research going. It's hard to overstate the disruption this causes.
