Do you run functional assays? Wish you could get more results without having to scale? If you’re not using Prophet, you’re leaving potential on the table. (Warning: pitch not tweetorial)

Gave a presentation at the MassBio summit yesterday and someone asks me how to interpret the "piles of dust" on my slides. I now have a new favorite term for UMAPs

I went to #BIOInternational this year and wished I'd gone 10 years ago. This is my attempt at convincing any early career researcher(or otherwise) to go for this unsupervised data collection experience. https://t.co/mbNqw1BXwQ #BIO2025

And no, I cannot

Hot take: if you work in AI for medicine you should be able to pass Step 1

I know the problem lies with how publishing incentives work but I wish there were a way to repair trust, even despite the current publishing system

Pfizer (the authors here) is the end user, they shouldn't be the ones having to call out papers from @NatureBiotech What is the point of academic research if the hurdle of "trusting it enough to try it" gets so big no one uses academic methods at all?

Grateful to see industry putting out thoughtful benchmarking work like this https://t.co/fpsKAwidha but sad to imagine what they must think about academia and bio ML papers

1/7 Planning to build a single-cell atlas? Or wondering how atlases can be useful to your research? Read our guide on single-cell atlases https://t.co/Z5dY86ZjxR published today in Nature Methods, by @SikkemaLisa, @KHrovatin, @MDLuecken, @fabian_theis and others.

And probably add a few years to your lifespan on top of everything else (come through longevity twitter)

(If you have kids, they’ll be multilingual!)

Live there for a few years, return fashionable AND polite

All you have to do is learn a little bit of Japanese

Guys let’s move to Japan

11/14 Looking ahead, we believe progress in this field will specifically require two key elements: - Higher-quality data spanning a wider range of cellular states and perturbations - Specialized models designed to fully leverage large-scale datasets for perturbation prediction

First (public) blog post - on single-cell, bubbles, and discovery https://t.co/o5juU5SUj0

My silver lining is that maybe this means more funding goes to high quality data generating institutions and technologies, the only reason we have AI in the first place

*foists upon the gf my unused EA t-shirt so she can use it as pyjamas* me: see I'm so effective! the marginal benefit-to-cost ratio here is infinite! too embarrassed to ever wear that so this is strictly a pareto improvement gf: purrito? you mean like a cat burrito??

(Admittedly this objection has more to do with IND policy, but still)
