The wonders of population genetics allow us to reveal the echoes of the tumultuous times our ancestors survived, forever imprinted in our genome. In this thread, I'll share my experience replicating one of my all-time favourite papers by @lh3lh3 and @richard_durbin

Recently visited SF's @exploratorium (an awesome place, highly recommend). The oscillators section mentioned the synchronisation phenomenon in fireflies but used metronomes as a demo. Metronomes are fine, but they don’t glow! Here’s a simulation of 150 fireflies shoved into a box

Stumbled upon some of the @ALCrego_ 's motion art and felt an urgent need to animate a black hole

Introducing *fullRankMatrix*, available on CRAN! @const_ae and I developed this R package to construct full rank design matrices. Esp. relevant for binary matrices that contain linearly dependent columns. Use fullRankMatrix for accurate linear model interpretation! 📊 #rstats

Research internships have been essential in helping me find my career path. However, most internships in Europe are unpaid, making them inaccessible for many students. If you can, please consider helping a friend of mine to fundraise his internship at @DKFZ
Hi everyone! I am trying to raise some money for the dream internship I got at one of the best cancer research centers in Europe. I don't need much. Please find 2 minutes and read this post! It will help me a lot. Thank you! telegra.ph/Fundraiser-for-th…

The field of spatial genomics has faced challenges with diverse data types and a lack of standardised infrastructure for quite some time. Congratulations to the authors for the release of a much-needed solution!
1/9 Excited to share #SpatiaData, a framework for representing spatially-resolved omics technologies. Great colab w/ @g_palla1 @ky396 @ivirshup @HeidariElyas @TreisTim Marcella @rahulbshrestha @harald_voeh @wolfgangkhuber @MoritzGerstung @notjustmoore @fabian_theis @OliverStegle

During my PhD interview with @Nick_Goldman, I shared this as my favourite paper, acknowledging my limited understanding of how the method works. Nick then asked me how long it'd take to replicate if the math is provided, and I somewhat naively replied, "I guess three weeks?🤔"

It took me numerous evenings of dedicated effort to replicate the task at hand. As someone with limited computational experience four years ago, I cannot stress enough how much of an underestimation the "three weeks" suggestion was 🤦‍♂️
