💡Just presented our new paper at the @iccv.bsky.social BioImage Computing workshop: cubic: CUDA-accelerated 3D Bioimage Computing. We introduce a simple way to add GPU acceleration to scikit-image–based bioimage processing pipelines by swapping import statements. 🧵

I'm so excited to share a new preprint on exploring sequence, structure, and function relationships and how we can use evolutionary information to help us design new proteins that work in the native context of a cell

Deep homology and design of proteasome chaperone proteins in Candida auris
A central tenet of biology is that protein structure mediates the sequence-function relationship. Recently, there has been excitement about the promise of advances in protein structure modeling to gen...

BREAKING: Harvard AAUP & the nat'l AAUP have jointly filed a lawsuit & TRO to block the Trump admin from demanding that Harvard restrict speech & undermine academic freedom or else lose $8.7 billion in federal funds. This action challenges the Trump admin's misuse of funds for coercion. Stay tuned.

My #Yale colleague Harlan Krumholz explains why the cuts to indirect costs are a disaster for biomedical research in the United States. Want to do something about it? I'll list those who have to hear from us below. Share, recruit friends and family to help. 1/ www.statnews.com/2025/02/08/n....
The NIH’s drastic cut to indirect cost rates is a critical threat to U.S. research infrastructure
The drastic reduction in indirect costs is not a path to innovation or cost savings — it’s a threat to U.S.’s position as global leader in medical research.

Fred Dietrich's sac genome update is artisanal bioinformatics 😙👌 "It is the opinion of the authors that it is time to raise the bar and that published evidence that a gene is real should be necessary to keep questionable open reading frames from being relegated to dubious." doi.org/10.1101/2023...
