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

#RxivMaker updated to v1.1.0: now supports R auto-generated figures and lots of bug fixes

Details in: github.com/HenriquesLab...
July 4, 2025 at 10:37 AM
Hi Bianca, we've added support for generating R figures. Thank you for suggesting it =). If you get a chance to give it a try in the future, let us know how it worked out
July 4, 2025 at 10:33 AM
It's here! ✨
The #ExSRRF protocol paper is out 😍. Full details for merging Expansion Microscopy with our eSRRF analysis. From cells to tissue. A partnership with @puellesv.bsky.social's lab. Lead by Dominik Kylies and @hannah-superres.bsky.social + colleagues. #ExM #eSRRF

Plus, #SReD works on any microscopy images, from fluorescence to electron microscopy 🌐
July 2, 2025 at 7:23 AM
We follow this up by detecting HIV viral morphogenesis 🦠✨ in live-cell fluorescence images. Leveraging the brilliant expertise of João Mamede’s team
July 2, 2025 at 7:19 AM
The new #SReD paper is packed with eye-opening demos! We demonstrate how SReD accurately detects spectrin ring patterns in neurons🧠, pinpointing instances where rings are disrupted. Possible through the deep system expertise from @christlet.bsky.social and team!

🔬👨‍💻📰 #SReD is out!
Automated structural detection for #ImageJ & #FIJI, from nano to macro ✨🐘. No training data, no bias - texture analysis with GPU acceleration!⚡️
Brainchild of @afonsomendes92.bsky.social and adventure w @christlet.bsky.social lab + friends.

So... have a read of our #preprint about #preprints, which makes more #preprints! Kudos to amazing Bruno Saraiva and @guijacquemet.bsky.social, who teamed up to create #RxivMaker and made it awesome

For those of you who use our HenriquesLab #bioRxiv template on @overleaf.com (🙏), the PDFs will look familiar. We enhanced the template with a fully automated, reproducible workflow, building on the style you love

Btw, Overleaf is awesome; we've done nearly-all preprints there. You should use it!

Under the #RxivMaker hood:
- 🦾 You Write, It Builds: Write #Markdown and engine autogenerates #LaTeX PDF
- 📊 Dynamic Figures: Generate figures with #Python or #Mermaid that automatically update when data changes
- 🤖 Zero-Install: Runs on #GoogleColab or builds with #GitHub Actions, no local setup
