I'm happy to share that our work with the PROFOUND consortium at @helmholtzai.bsky.social has just been accepted to @neuripsconf.bsky.social! Kudos to all the co-authors, especially Chanwoong Hwang, who is now the most junior former group member to contribute to an A* conference! @hzdr.bsky.social

Imagine: you completed and analysed a genome-wide high-content phenotypic screen, so what do you make of it? We say: just ask the screen? Yes, using plain English! Here's a genome-wide screen for HPI in VACV infection that you can talk to. BioRxiv: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6... @hzdr.bsky.social

Every #LifeSciences #DeepLearning project starts with a dusty hard drive of messy, unannotated jpegs. 😩 What if you could render your own perfectly annotated dataset and have an #agent help improve it? 🧬🤖 Preprint!👇 arxiv.org/pdf/2607.12874 @casusscience.bsky.social @casusscience.bsky.social

Some eight years ago, I shared a slightly embarrassing self help video, hoping more biologists will get into deep learning. With 20k views now, seems like someone might have found it useful. #ThrowbackThursday youtu.be/4UiDG7iC4uY?...

Season's greetings from the University of Wroclaw which I passed by to give a talk at the second symposium on #AI ∀, just to be amazed at the plethora of local algos and applications! (and yes this Xmas tree thinks it's better than yours)

There's a fully funded postdoc position available in my group starting next year. Prerequisites: you know that python is not just a snake 🐍, pi is not just a dessert 🎂, policy is more than insurance 📃, proteins and training don't just mean gym 🏋️ to you. DM if interested.

This year for Halloween I will be the Schienenersatzverkehr 👻

Sometimes you just need the flexibility of a #Python library! We present the "Pandas for clonal phenotypes", #PyPlaque aims to do just that! www.nature.com/articles/s41... @hzdr.bsky.social @casusscience.bsky.social 🧪

had a great time talking about #GenAI for improving microscopy at the #FoB @hzdr.bsky.social @casusscience.bsky.social

Always great to be back to #Basel, you might think that staying in hotel 2.7182.. is irrational, but the night rates are quite natural! #FoB here we go!

I'll be speaking at the Festival of Biologics 2025 in Basel next week. If you're interested, pass by and please pick up one of my FREE passes: i.snoball.it/p/IGqAE/l/7 #FestivalOfBiologics @hzdr.bsky.social @casusscience.bsky.social

looking forward to talking about #Microscopy, #GenAI, and virological plaques at the 8th International Symposium on Systems Biology of Microbial Infection in beautiful Jena!

#BuildingBridges in Dresden! Excited to talk about #GenAI for #Microscopy tomorrow! @casusscience.bsky.social @hzdr.bsky.social

Had a blast discussing #microscopy and #AI at BNMI in beautiful Gothenburg!
