Der perfekte Körper. Wenn Algorithmen Schönheit definieren - DIZH Was ist schön? Gesellschaftliche Vorstellungen von Schönheit gab es schon immer: in der Antike in Stein gemeisselt, später auf Leinwand gemalt, im 20. Jahrhundert ins Kino und in Magazine übertragen.…...

KI-generierte Bilder zeigen makellose Haut, schlanke Körper, ewige Jugend. Was das mit unserem Selbstbild macht und warum uns das Wissen darum kaum schützt, erklärt @schnamo.bsky.social in der neuen Folge unseres Podcasts.

Come to the BOKR session at 2:20 and see Charlotte Tumescheit @schnamo.bsky.social give a super interesting talk about improving prediction of molecular properties by incorporating ontologies. #ISMBECCB2025

Come and see me in the ice rink if you want to plot phylogenies in matplotlib! Poster 206. GitHub.com/KatyBrown/plot_phylo #ISMBECCB2025

Excited for the ISMB/ECCB conference! I have two posters A520 today about an endogenous and exogenous virus I found in nematodes - and B206 tomorrow about my tool plot_phylo for drawing phylogenies in matplotlib. #ISMBECCB2025

Decoding the interactions and functions of non-coding RNA with artificial intelligence Nature Reviews Molecular Cell Biology, Published online: 19 June 2025; doi:10.1038/s41580-025-00857-wStudying RNA function is constrained by limitations of traditional methods. This Roadmap discusses how artificial intelligence (AI) can enhance the study of how non-coding regions of mRNA regulate its function, and suggests how to use AI to harness publicly available data towards that goal.

Exclusive: NIH to terminate hundreds of active research grants Studies that touch on LGBT+ health, gender identity and DEI in the biomedical workforce could be terminated, according to documents obtained by Nature.

NEW: The NIH has begun terminating grants for active projects studying gender identity, DEI, environmental justice, climate change, among other topics.

At least 16 termination letters have already been sent — and hundreds more are coming, people inside NIH tell me.

My tool plot_phylo is now available through @pyopensci! Used to plot a phylogenetic tree using matplotlib functionality, so mpl can be used for additional annotation. Very smooth and helpful process with lots of useful feedback. www.pyopensci.org/python-packa... github.com/KatyBrown/pl... 🧪🧬🖥️

Devastating for scientists and their research, and everyone who benefits from that research.

I’m not sure if everyone outside academia is aware that a delay or “pause” in grant funding often means the researchers themselves are lost from the field, along with their expertise.

Hello Bluesky community :)
Would like to take this opportunity to draw your attention to some selected bioinformatics work I did together with @thekatybrown.bsky.social, if you are dealing with multiple sequence alignments it might be useful!
