Our SMLM database is out in Nature Communications: www.nature.com/articles/s41.... It allows you to store, share, analyse and compare SMLM data and, in particular, can tell you how similar your data is to the other data stored on the site, as you might do with a gene sequence for example.

Using #LLMs for science👨‍💻💬? We have a fun tool for you: introducing #folder2md4llms. It converts an entire folder of docs/code/pdfs/pptx into a single markdown file that you can upload to your chatbot of choice. We use it to talk with our publications database or code repos

Cool news about #RxivMaker. Adding lots of new features 🏃. An rxiv-markdown manuscript can now have embedded code that helps keep all your data updated (e.g. inserting number of samples by reading data like .xls). Both #RxivMaker and #mAIcrobe preprints are written with it
