and also btw our paper in collab with the Einav lab on severe dengue progression in children is on Nature Immunology's website now nature.com/articles/s41590-0…

btw atlasapprox.org/ is live. Single-cell, whole-body cell atlases across the tree of life at your fingertips. Finally get marker genes for the cell type you dig in 1.2 seconds: "What are 10 markers of AT2 in human lung?" Powered by our awesome atlas approximations.

Proud to receive a CZI #SingleCell data insight grant to build light and scalable approximations of cell atlases! Standardized, easy & fast (subsecond) access to atlas data across cell types, organs & organisms, free & open source, to anyone in the 🌎! atlasapprox.readthedocs.io/

Scientists are using existing #SingleCell data to uncover new insights into health disease. Meet some of the researchers who are developing new computational tools & methods to process, analyze and understand this valuable data πŸ‘πŸΏπŸ‘πŸ½πŸ‘πŸ» czi.co/3K1mtJ4

In the same patients, cell substype and cell state abundances are altered in an intriguing way: almost no non-classical monocytes are found, while atypical immunoregulatory twins of killer NK and T cells emerge and likely flood the system with the wrong cytokines.

This study is a clean example that scientific disciplines have no meaning anymore: data science, molecular biology, immunology, and medicine are all facets of the same disco ball we call research πŸͺ©πŸ•Ί

We obviously will no longer ask our editors to evaluate submissions for their suitability for eLife prior to peer review, as "suitable for eLife" no longer means anything.

The Australian Research Council (ARC), which funds virtually all non-medical research in Oz, decided that citing a preprint in a funding application disqualifies it. πŸ˜“πŸ˜  Minister: preprints are essential tools of modern science! Sign here: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F…

Looking for a postdoc in single cell data science, esp. on cancer and induced stem cells, co-advised with John Pimanda here in sunny Sydney. βŒ¨οΈπŸ”ŽπŸŽ† If you think every cell should have a voice and are a proficient Python or R coder, shoot me an email: fabilab.org (1/2)

Members of underrepresented groups in data science are particularly welcome to apply, including: Aboriginals and Torres Strait Islanders, people of colour, LGBTQ community members, and yes - women are still underrepresented, until we change that (2/2) πŸ¦„πŸŒˆ.

Invasion day, on which a bunch of Europeans on a ship decided Country was for them to "conquer". As a recent European immigrant, I am baffled this is a day of celebration, just imagine how it must feel for our Aboriginal friends and colleagues... 😠✊
