The schedule for #MLCB2021 is up. 3 awesome keynotes, 16 oral presentations, and an industry panel. Check it out and register (its free): sites.google.com/cs.washingt…
Deep learning has obviously transformed protein structure prediction, but can it do the same for the rest of biology? In a perspective by @sorger_peter and myself out this week in @naturemethods, we begin to try to answer this question: rdcu.be/cyMvO

A friend (who does not work in science) asked me today whether it is true that "protein folding has been solved". My short answer:
The AlphaFold method produced very impressive results on CASP14. Protein folding is not a solved problem.
So many good conferences are happening virtually this month. Here is one more: MLCB2020 mlcb.org conference is next week, Nov 23-24. Check out the full schedule that is just up now. Make sure to register if you plan to join!
Assistant Professor of Teaching Position in Quantitative Biology at @ucdavis. The position will reside in the Dept. of Evolution & Ecology (eve.ucdavis.edu) and be affiliated with the planned interdisciplinary major in Quant. Bio. Please retweet! recruit.ucdavis.edu/JPF03860
Happy to see this paper out. Interpreting what CNNs have learned on large compendium of ATAC-seq data was surprising: much of the learnt parameters point to validated biological mechanisms. Deep learning of immune cell differentiation pnas.org/content/early/2020/…
Wow. In MIT/Harvard case, DHS has fully agreed to rescind the July 6 ICE guidance and July 7 FAQ, and rescind all implementing guidance!
So no TRO, because the government backed down completely.
Very excited to share SHARE-seq - single-cell ATAC RNA in the same cell - with you! Using the paired data we find that chromatin change can predict future gene expression states! Enabling opportunities to define cell trajectories and their regulation (1/2) biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
We are really excited to announce that more than 2800 attendees signed-up for the #free#virtual edition of #RECOMB2020! Detailed instructions on how to join the event will be sent to you soon. Moreover, registration is still open! See our website: recomb2020.org/registration
