3/7 🏎 We developed FakET as a surrogate model mimicking the behavior of the physics-based transmission electron microscope simulator SHREC but FakET generates the data 750x faster and uses 33x less memory 💪

Finally, my postdoc work is published in Cell Structure! 🎉 Grateful for the chance to apply deep learning to cryo-ET and learn from @HaselbachLab about structural biology🦠. Huge thanks to Lukas Herrmann for coding help and @GrohsPhilipp for my position and all the GPUs.
🔬Our @HaselbachLab with @HararPavol have developed ‘FakET’! The new method creates ‘fake’ electron microscopy images to train AI, reducing manual work in particle identification. Read the full story: https://t.co/ZeFW0WzwPu

Thanks, Alicia! I'm very happy to join your group at @ISTAustria 🎉. At the same time, I need to thank my mentors @GrohsPhilipp , @HaselbachLab, Monika Dörfler, Jiri Mekyska, Lukas Vrabel, and all my great former colleagues. Without them I would not make it this far.
Thrilled to welcome @HararPavol to my group at @ISTAustria as a Computational Scientist for BioAI and CryoET! With broad expertise in deep learning and biomed data from the @univienna and @IMPvienna he’ll be advancing our research on circadian rhythms with AI-driven methods.

In the spirit of Obama's recent viral post about getting shi<ehm>stuff done, I just submitted two major updates of my papers on arXiv. Not every day you push through multiple submissions at once, even if it's "just" updates. Let's see if I manage to get another one next week.

"A random half of panelists were shown a CV and only a one-paragraph summary of the proposed research, while the other half were shown a CV and a full proposal. We find that withholding proposal texts from panelists did not detectibly impact rankings." https://t.co/IVXjvGqUDI

Build what you need and use what you build. This is a core philosophy of my research. It shifts the focus away from publishing “papers” to what really matters — impact. This thread unpacks why I think this is a successful approach to science. 1/10 Or see: https://t.co/p3iWJ9LCzf

Well deserved! Congrats Julius 🎉
beyond proud of my (former) PhD student @julberner for being awarded a Promotio sub auspiciis Praesidentis rei publicae (see https://t.co/mfsV3bCFZW) by the President of Austria. This is a huge accomplishment!

couldn’t agree more about the need for more computational biologists. More importantly, we must ensure they receive the recognition and support they deserve. Their work should never be dismissed as merely “just service”. Additionally, I’d like to remind everyone of the excellent
WE NEED COMPUTATIONAL PEOPLE IN BIOLOGY. WE NEED THEM IN DRUG DISCOVERY AND MULTI OMICS. WE NEED HARDWARE PEOPLE TO BUILD SPECIFIC AND PORTABLE DEVICES. BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY WE NEED DEVS. WE NEED TO MAKE OPEN ACCESS DATA AS ACCESSIBLE AS POSSIBLE. WE NEED COMPUTE GRANTS. GIVE

Absolutely! I’ve seen it happen three times in my lab in the last year: We post our papers as preprints and share our codes on GitHub early, but then others slightly modify our work and get published first. Meanwhile, our papers languish in long review processes. To add insult to
@J_my_sci It depends. I personally prefer to preprint but we have noticed some labs repeating our experiments by monitoring our preprints. This is starting to happen to other labs as well as publishing can take months to years after submission while other journals it can take days.

I emailed an author about a paper where the ENTIRE contribution is about a dataset they curated + constructed. The question: has the dataset been released? No, we decided not to. What absurdity. I’m tempted to ask arxiv to take down the paper. How is this science?

“Scientists must be mobile today. You must always relocate for the next academic position.” Academia is definitely different from industry in this regard. A fellowship is often given to those who are willing to relocate elsewhere. If, for ANY reason, a #PhD student wants to

I absolutely love that moment after coding a new algorithm day and night, totally exhausted, and then 💥 BAM! It starts working like a charm. Now, it's time for a well-deserved rest. Good night! 😊🛌

I am happy to share our latest study on the mechanism of the Anaphase promoting complex just out now in @NatureSMB. This is a close collaboration with the Brown lab @UNC, spearheaded by the amazing @BodrugTanya , who bridged the project across an ocean.
