Over the years I’ve been prioritising spending more time at schools and small meetings than large conferences and the beautiful @tulip-gs-labex.bsky.social justifies it. Brilliant interactions with enthusiastic early career researches and deeper discussions with instructors. Thanks for the invite!

Congratulations to our PhD student Mike to your first author paper! 🎆 Stability of dynamic radiomics features in cardiac MRI under noise academic.oup.com/ehjimp/artic...

Stability of dynamic radiomics features in cardiac MRI under noise

AbstractAims. Radiomic studies on cardiac MRI mainly focus on images from distinct time points rather than considering the system’s dynamic nature. Recent

For many animals, adaptation means survival. In order to learn with minimal risk, some species use safe spaces. @gokhalecs.bsky.social and Dharanish Rajendra describe the math behind this behaviour in the latest edition of @royalsocietypublishing.org. ➡️ www.uni-wuerzburg.de/en/news-and-...

Play isn’t only fun… it’s preparation for danger! Our new paper by @DharanishR in @royalsociety.org shows how protected juvenile environments boost #learning of risky behaviours via a protected early life period across some species. 🦂🦁 tinyurl.com/3w45xvz9 @cctb-wue.bsky.social @uni-wuerzburg.de

How do animals choose a mate? Sometimes they follow their own taste, sometimes they copy others’ choices. This has an impact on the entire group, as a study from @cctb-wue.bsky.social & @gokhalecs.bsky.social shows. 📷 Chamika/Adobe Stock go.uniwue.de/gokhale-pnas
