Ever wanted an interactive lightning-fast solver for models in physics, chemistry, or biology? Do you have a web browser?
I'm thrilled to announce VIsualPDE.com, built explicitly to solve PDE models interactively on most devices, written by @bj_w95@Pecnut and I.
Front cover alert 🚨 our research on the mechanics behind a dog's iconic wet nose is featured on the @CurrentBiology cover! Learn how skin growth & blood vessels shape those unique grooves & domes - a must read for biology & physics fans 🐶🔬 @UNIGEnewscell.com/current-biology/ful…
Chalkdust issue 20 is out now!
Our latest issue features spirographs, complex triangles and a lot of ants, plus all your favourite regulars.
You can read it now at chalkdustmagazine.com/read/i…
I'm super excited to have a new preprint - Manifold Diffusion Geometry
Diffusion geometry *robustly* measures curvature, dimension, and tangent spaces of data!

We've not forgotten that it's a spooky time of year. Check out this Navier-Stokes sim of fluid flow (Re = 5) in a season-appropriate domain.
Navier-Stokes sims will be available soon, live on your device.

Why is #accessibility essential for true #openaccess?
Removing barriers to access benefits the whole #community.
arXiv's #HTML Papers Project was launched to better support researchers with vision impairments who use screen readers, but everyone wins with #darkmode & better UX.
Our CDTs (Centers for Doctoral Training) are great program-based opportunities for fully-funded PhD positions. Specifically, consider the Machine-Learning CDT:

If you are interested and specifically want to work with me on ML geometry, contact me!
Of course, there should still be discussion sections and office hours available. But the giant lecture itself, delivering live the same material year after year, is an absurd archaicism.
🚨OPEN PhD position🚨
I am looking for a highly motivated PhD student to join my project group in the Department of Machine Learning and Systems Biology @MLSB_Borgwardt led by @kmborgwardt at @MPI_Biochem near Munich. Deadline November 15th.
Please RT.
1/3 ….excellent análysis of the #GeneCentric view of #DevBio and a strong message, at least for me: it is going to be difficult to explain development just w/genes and their interactions shorturl.at/6t3Vr.
Modeling Cell dev and reg community we have an opportunity to present our perspective. We need voices from multiple perspectives from multiple fields, theory and experiments. @VHD_Consortium@SMBdevBio@the_Node
Submit your research to the collection, 'Virtual Human Development: Merging Experiments and Theory.'
This collection seeks original articles, perspectives, and reviews on experimental and computational models for understanding #EarlyHumanDevelopment. ⬇️ nature.com/collections/ibgjh…
Morphogens in the evolution of size, shape and patterning
In this Review, Lewis Mosby, Amy Bowen and @z_hvas@TheCrick@UCL explore how morphogen-mediated patterning evolve and how theory and experiment can be interwoven to bring new perspectives:
