I used to spend a week curating single-cell studies by hand. Now AI does it in 5 minutes. But this isn’t about job loss—it’s about leverage. Let me show you why every bioinformatician should embrace AI:

If you're still using raw R outputs for presentations, it's time for an upgrade! Tools like gtsummary bring your statistical results to life, making them much more digestible for non-technical audiences. While base R functions like summary(fit) work well for statisticians, they

How much fun it was to come back and chat with a great mentor and role model @clarklabucla1!! Can’t wait to see you again at @ISSCR this year, Madam President! #firstgengraduates
Professors have the best job in the world, especially when prior mentees like the phenomenal Ernesto Rojas come to visit. His career will be one to watch!

Happy to share the peer-reviewed version!⛺️ Now including additional analyses of i) impact of celltype composition imbalance across samples, and ii) noise in celltype labels on integration performance. Thanks to reviewers & editor for constructive feedback https://t.co/DU0PGRLNnH

Nature Communications - Batch effects hinder multi-sample single-cell data analyses. Here, authors present STACAS, a scalable single-cell RNA-seq data integration tool that uses prior cell type...
In scRNA-seq analysis, "overcorrection" of batch effects is a frequent cause for loss of important biological variability. Using prior celltype knowledge is a powerful way to limit overcorrection and should be more common practice. Sharing new preprint! https://t.co/j9qB7kLumH
