I've tried it in my Shiny app for qPCR analysis and seems impressive. Thank you. BTW, it fully supports facet_wrap().

Big thanks to @bradyajohnston for a great first #Blender workshop day! I learned a lot and could even already render a very simple but pretty animation! 🤩

Check out this really cool paper on the functional differences of RagA and RagB GTPase by the amazing @GLDaughter! Very happy I could contribute to this story during my time in the lab!

A year ago we open-sourced #AlphaFold Today we're freely sharing the predicted structures of all 200M proteins known to science - almost the entire protein universe! It's our gift to humanity, and a demonstration of the benefits AI can bring to society dpmd.ai/AF-22-LI

Super excited to share this collaborative work @Nature that focuses on the roles of Sestrin-mTORC1 in organismal dietary leucine response. So much fun working with @PJouandin from @PerrimonLab. Thank all co-authors for their very valuable contributions.nature.com/articles/s41586-0…

If you are using protti please note that UniProt related functions are not working properly after the UniProt update. We implemented a quick fix which you can get now on GitHub.

Can someone explain why this solution is blue when light shines through it but red when light shines on it? My mind is blown! 🤯

A favorite quote from @kycl4rk's Mastering Python for #Bioinformatics: "Weeks of coding can save you hours of planning."

What measures do you take in your lab to ensure that your code has a high quality? E.g. code reviews, version control, unit tests, etc. How do you strike a balance to not overdo it with quality control measures? #AcademicTwitter #Bioinformatics #phdchat #AcademicChatter

Just to clarify, what my question mainly refers to here are scrips for data analysis that might be very project specific. For software tools I think all of the above mentioned quality control measures should be applied no matter if it is an academic or industry setting.
