Do you teach #rstats? Do your students complain about how lame and old-fashioned dplyr is? Don't worry: I have the solution for you: github.com/hadley/genzp....

genzplyr is dplyr, but bussin fr fr no cap.

📢New job posting!📢
Are you excited by the idea of building global infrastructure to make pathogen sequencing more accessible, interpretable, and equitable? 🧑🏻‍💻🧬

My group at @swisstph.ch has an opening working with ARTIC2, @pathoplexus.org, & Loculus - read on!

Last year, we started the Open #SingleCell #PediatricCancer Atlas (OpenScPCA) project and invited experts worldwide to collaboratively analyze data from our ScPCA Portal. Interest in the project is growing and we welcome more experts to join. See what the community has been up to on GitHub!

Applications are open for our next Introduction to Single-cell RNA-Sequencing workshop. 🎉

We will introduce R programming, single-cell RNA-seq data analysis, annotating cell types and more. Visit our blog post below for the full details and to apply!

A very well written story about the Calling Bullshit course I teach with @jevinwest.bsky.social at the UW.

I feel like the definition of being at “high risk” from covid really needs to include “high probability of messing up your health and life for months or years” not just “likely to immediately kill you.”

A 9% chance that I’m gonna be sick for at least three months is a pretty high risk!

Here it is, folks
