I will be there!
@bethcimini.bsky.social on Bluesky
Just 4 days until the start of I2K and its 33 totally free image analysis tutorials and events! Please share with your "home networks", especially early career researchers - the videos will be amazing and high-impact no matter how many people attend live, BUT (1/x)

Tatata-tarte tatin! My annual tradition of making the most fancy apple pie there is: fluffy pastry and sour, caramelized apples. I had 3 (!) slices 😍

Love my #staub pan with removable handles...
And, off to the oven... A pan filled with apples covered with pastry, next to it 2 apples and quince. Here we go, boiling hot... 3,2,1... Pan after baking, the pastry is now puffed and browmed ... And flipped!! It worked!! The apples tarte was removed from the pan and flipped upside down. Pastry is now the bottom , the apple halves in Carmel sit atop.

Getting Rosalind Franklin’s story right is crucial, because she has become a role model for women going into science

What Rosalind Franklin truly contributed to the discovery of DNA’s structure
Franklin was no victim in how the DNA double helix was solved. An overlooked letter and an unpublished news article, both written in 1953, reveal that she was an equal player.

Schützt die Klima-Milliarden: Keine Haushaltstricks für neue Autobahnen!
Deutschland hat schon jetzt eines der dichtesten Straßennetze der Welt. Der Neubau von Straßen ist unnötig und würde für noch mehr klimaschädlichen Auto- und LKW-Verkehr sorgen.  Wenn wir nicht ...

Why can our farts ignite? Time to find out (and quite a bit more) in our new paper in Nature Microbiology led by the amazing Dr Cait Welsh. Integrating atomic-to-ecosystem level insights. www.nature.com/articles/s41...
A widespread hydrogenase supports fermentative growth of gut bacteria in healthy people - Nature Microbiology
A previously uncharacterized microbial enzyme is responsible for the production of molecular hydrogen in the gut, which drives the growth of other bacteria and has implications for human health.

Worüber ihr kein Wort von Merz, Spahn, Söder hören werdet: Ein Gutachten zum Weihnachtsmarkt-Anschlag in Magdeburg stuft diesen als rechtsextrem motiviert ein. Der Täter plante ihn jahrelang, kündigte ihn an und verortete sich selbst in einem rechtsextremen Netzwerk. #Stadtbild

Das crazy! Die Bundesregierung will Geld sparen – setzt aber den komplett falschen Fokus. Das belegen die Zahlen eindeutig. Für uns ist glasklar, wo wir den Schwerpunkt setzen müssen! Was denkt ihr?

Hi - I draw along talks for a hobby - making #sketchnotes, mainly #science, sometimes #politics that I publish on my blog:

A visual blog about science and tissue engineering. Based on live doodles/sketchnotes done during talks. Some with an abstract/writeup.

“Collaborating with Biomedical AI through Visual Explanations and Interactive Guidance“ - a #DataVis #BioVis talk by
Qianwen Wang, Univ Minnesota

Link: biovis.net/2025/meetup/ (right under picture)
Abstract: see alt-text
Announcement for talk: Artificial Intelligence (AI) has advanced at a rapid pace and is expected to revolutionize many biomedical applications. However, current AI methods are usually developed via a data-centric approach regardless of the usage context and the end users, posing challenges for domain users in interpreting AI, obtaining actionable insights, and collaborating with AI in decision-making and knowledge discovery. In this talk, I discussed how this challenge can be addressed by combining interactive visualizations with interpretable AI. Specifically, I present two methodologies: 1) visualizations that explain AI models and predictions and 2) interaction mechanisms that integrate user feedback into AI models. Despite some challenges, I will conclude on an optimistic note: interactive visual explanations should be indispensable for human-AI collaboration. The methodology discussed can be applied generally to other applications where human-AI collaborations are involved, assisting domain experts in data exploration and insight generation with the help of AI.

Continuing my irregular contributions to "very unfortunate #GraphicalAbtract ": an oligomer with lots of fans in 1933 Germany... 🤨
A visual summary of a paper, called Graphical Abstract, that presents two routes how oligomers assemble, and which produce an structure that in the figure resembles the sign of the Nazi Germany 1933-45, most likely by accident.

Fred Ramsdell was parked at a campground in Montana on Monday when his wife suddenly started shouting. He first thought that maybe she had seen a grizzly bear. Instead, she had regained cell service and had seen a flood of text messages with the same news. “You just won the Nobel Prize!” she yelled.
Winning a Nobel Prize Interrupted His Off-the-Grid Vacation
Fred Ramsdell found out about his Nobel Prize nearly 12 hours after it was announced because he was on vacation in the Rockies.
