GpABC: a Julia package for parameter inference & model selection using i) simulation-based ABC/ABC-SMC, or ii) ABC with GP emulation. Excellent work from Evgeny, Jonathan, Tara, @lisi_roe, very pleased to co-supervise this group project with @theosysbio. biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
Turing patterns are common but not robust: cell.com/cell-systems/fullte… with Natalie Scholes, @dschnoerr & Mark Isalan. We performed 10^11 stability analyses to find that many network motifs can produce Turing patterns. First paper from our @VolkswagenSt Life? project

#synbio also has lots to offer to tackle the #climatecrisis. But we need better in silico design approaches to make innovation scalable and cannot rely on trial and error.

We are looking for a bright post-doc to join the ARC Training Centre transforming maintenance through data science. The one, specifically focussed on Natural Language Processing. Prospective staff : Jobs at UWA : The University of Western Australia external.jobs.uwa.edu.au/cw/…
Next Tuesday I’ll be giving the special lecture at the @DiscoverAMSI Winter School at @QUT: Large Scale Robustness Analysis And The Elusive Ubiquity Of Turing Pattern.
Check ws.amsi.org.au/special-lectu… for details.
Very much looking forward to meeting friends and colleagues.
The Liberals’ cuts to science have created Australia’s largest brain drain, depriving Australia of the talent it needs.The government’s hostility to science derives from the hard-right ideologues in its ranks, who will not be happy until EIF is gone.

Why I like the new (@mikemorrison) poster format (a shortish thread):
Disclaimer: I see the value of posters but usually don’t enjoy most poster sessions (eg MASAMB consistently good but an exception imho) 1/7
