The wonders of population genetics allow us to reveal the echoes of the tumultuous times our ancestors survived, forever imprinted in our genome. In this thread, I'll share my experience replicating one of my all-time favourite papers by @lh3lh3 and @richard_durbin

Recently visited SF's @exploratorium (an awesome place, highly recommend). The oscillators section mentioned the synchronisation phenomenon in fireflies but used metronomes as a demo. Metronomes are fine, but they don’t glow! Here’s a simulation of 150 fireflies shoved into a box

Stumbled upon some of the @ALCrego_ 's motion art and felt an urgent need to animate a black hole

Introducing *fullRankMatrix*, available on CRAN! @const_ae and I developed this R package to construct full rank design matrices. Esp. relevant for binary matrices that contain linearly dependent columns. Use fullRankMatrix for accurate linear model interpretation! 📊 #rstats

How much does your medical history reveal about your future? As a team effort of @MoritzGerstung and @ewanbirney's labs, we present Delphi-2M, a transformer for modelling future health based on past medical history. medrxiv.org/content/10.110…

Exciting news! I'm looking for talented individuals to join my soon-to-be-launched Emmy Noether group supported by @dfg_public and @UniOsnabrueck! Reach out if you're passionate about #cryoEM and #photosynthesis! bit.ly/ChlorophyllPhD bit.ly/ChlorophyllPos… #ScienceJobs

Thesis defended and my colleagues awarded me with the fancy hat 🎓 Thank you everyone who've been with me on this journey - you are fantastic scientists and friends! And thank you @MoritzGerstung and @Yates_lab for guiding me through this chapter of my life. It was fun!

The field of spatial genomics has faced challenges with diverse data types and a lack of standardised infrastructure for quite some time. Congratulations to the authors for the release of a much-needed solution!
