On my way to #Ascona in Switzerland) for this exciting congress, where we will discuss about modern benchmarking strategies to advance molecular biology!! Happy also to present our findings on the latest systematic evaluation of #singlecell multimodal data integrations in complex tissues. 🧬🔬👩🏻‍💻👩🏻‍🔬
Quick update. We have a pretty exciting lineup of topics/speakers in and around benchmarking that will be presented in Ascona at the end of the month:

Made a #short about my internal conflicts on academic publishing #AcademicSky #PhDlife

"Stop asking me where I want to publish our paper. I don't care...I just want people to read it. And maybe learn from it. Even build on it. Ok?"

Is this #hopecore or #hopelesscore
