Just because I am seeing new reposts of this: this outage was resolved last week, about 48 hours after we found out about it. Thankfully, there has not been a second one 😎

Thank you Kevin for creating something truly incredible. ZebrafishRock has been such an important contribution to our community. I’m glad that the Slack will live on - see you there, and hopefully at a meeting some time soon. Be well!

Congrats, Bailey!

Sure, but it’s a few extra steps. (1) Use a small screwdriver to unscrew the front panel of your Switch. (2) Use a hot glue gun to glue that front panel to the screen of your Mac laptop. (3) Start DaniocellDesktop and shrink the window to show through the front panel. (4) Voila! How easy is that?

Big props to Alicia Evans, Matt Breymaier, and the NICHD BSPC team for key contributions. It feels strange to announce new things these days, but hopefully this tool will bring some of you a little joy and some great new hypotheses. (4/4)

After installing, it'll download a copy of the Daniocell data for you and runs locally on your computer, meaning your interactions are private and can persist long-term. Check out the tutorials and give it a try: daniocell.nichd.nih.gov/desktop/ (3/4)

DaniocellDesktop lets you define custom cell populations, perform differentially expressed gene analysis, and generate publication-ready plots to show gene expression patterns, co-expression, and temporal changes for any genes or cell populations you wish. (2/4)

We also did some such comparisons between ZF and human in our 2023 dev cell paper and some code you could use as a starting point is in the GitHub repo.

Hey Ivan! The data is available from the Daniocell front page, but LMK if you have questions

Kevin, I think what you do is super important, and I’m thankful for everything that Zebrafish Rock! has done!!! It helps me keep up with the community and helps make people aware of cool resources they should know about. Sorry there are some unappreciative jerks, but many of us love ZR deeply.

Congratulations, Mike!!!

Hell yeah! Another stunning finding! Congratulations Andi, Victoria, and Andreas!!
