Visiting @gemmaatkinson.bsky.social lab together with @hannelorelongin.bsky.social and @maartenlangen.bsky.social to join forces on phage protein annotation

PhD students Sophie and Jaldert curated an OGT dataset and linked them to NCBI genomes. They trained a prediction model that avoids phylogenetic bias and mesophilic bias. Excellent for bioprospecting! All data available. OGTFinder: A Curated Growth Temperature Data Set share.google/ikKixPcEGWy0...

College gegeven aan 12-16 jarige kids met veel enthousiasme voor STEM vakken over chatGPT voor je DNA. Superleuk om te doen! Kijk er nu al naar uit om ze in de echte collegezaal te ontvangen! www.youtube.com/watch?v=whpe...

Want control over segmentation of your protein into domains? Now out in #bioinformatics AFragmenter academic.oup.com/bioinformati... @sverwimp.bsky.social @roblavigne.bsky.social

Fold first, ask later: structure-informed function annotation of Pseudomonas phage proteins Structural predictions to improve #phage genome annotation! @hannelorelongin.bsky.social @gbouras13.bsky.social y.social @susiegriggo.bsky.social @veravannoort.bsky.social www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Very excited that our work describing hu.MAP3.0 is published in @molsystbiol.org. Here we use machine learning to integrate >25k mass spectrometry experiments to place ~70% of human proteins into 15k protein complexes. www.embopress.org/doi/full/10....

Looking for a new colleague at the faculty of bioscience engineering www.biw.kuleuven.be/m2s/cmpg/job...

Kregen andere promotoren ook bericht dat ze hun aanbeveling bij @fwovlaanderen.bsky.social niet hadden ingediend terwijl ze dit wel hadden gedaan? #onnodigestress

Check out our preprint on optimal growth temperature prediction #machinelearning #ai #bioprospecting #extremophiles

A new #StarterPack with scientist specialized in microbial bioinformatics - #MicroBioInf. Please comment if you would like to be added: go.bsky.app/5h7VaGm Looking forward to the discussions!

Positive vibes among the master students presenting results of their hard work this semester at the poster session of the Integrated Bioinformatics Project at KU Leuven.

Early xmas present, now out in Bioinformatics. SCARAP developed by Stijn Wittouck in collaboration with Sarah Lebeer. PanGenome analysis brought to your laptop academic.oup.com/bioinformati...

Structure of the Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 Type IV pilus Finally out in PLOS Pathogens. Congrats Hannah Ochner and co-authors. @mrclmb.bsky.social journals.plos.org/plospathogen...

Small rant. Funding rejected again. Quoting the reviewers "very ambitiius and original", "innovative" but "concerns .. about expertise". This semester, I started on the initial phase of this project nevertheless with a group of Master students and superhappy with results so far! (1/n)

In our ab initio modeling group at imec we have two new PhD positions open www.imec-int.com/en/work-at-i... www.imec-int.com/en/work-at-i... application deadline is December 15th.
