Getting snow where you are? Did you know that there are 121 categories of snowflake? ❄️

This graphic is an old favourite which gives an overview of the 39 intermediate categories: www.compoundchem.com/2014/12/10/s... 🧪

Want to learn about the theoretical aspects of proteins/peptides analysis by mass spectrometry?

Then join the #EMBLProteomics course where you will get hands-on experience in sample preparation and perform tandem mass tag labelling.

Apply by 3 March:https://s.embl.org/sdp26-01-bl 🔬💻

🍬It's our old lab tradition – every year on St. Nicklas Day, we go around the @mpi-cbg.de labs to share sweets with our institute colleagues and staff. Viditha & Jonas, our PhD students, were in charge of the heavy candy baskets this year. Have you been on the straight and narrow?🙃

An interesting new TOF instrument! We were lucky to learn details from the first hand on our XMass Updates symposium last year, presented by Anatoly Verenchikov. Curious about AbsQuant and #lipidomics applications - let's keep an eye on the development! 😉

🤖 Automation in life science academic research is not a trend, it's a necessity. There are only a few realistically affordable options to facilitate laborious routine in omics labs. Together with Dr. Friederike Jantzen (Beckman Coulter) we looked at the new Biomec i3 robot. Very interesting option!

AI chatbots are worse at retrieving accurate information and reasoning when trained on large amounts of low-quality content, particularly if the content is popular on social media

Too much social media gives AI chatbots ‘brain rot’
Large language models fed low-quality data skip steps in their reasoning process.
