Thanks for a great 2025, COMBINE members! Wishing you bug-free code, abundant compute resources, and statistically-significant findings all through the holiday season and into the new year!

Workshops underway this morning! #ABACBS2025

That’s a wrap on the COMBINE Symposium and ABACBS Conference for 2025! What a spectacular few days of enlightening talks, eye-catching posters, tasty food, exciting collaborations, hard-earned social events, and, importantly, brilliant bioinformatics!

Well done to the outgoing and incoming #COMBINE2025 presidents! Very proud of both Liyang Fei and Caitlin Page, PhD students in my group! #ABACBS2025

I'm honored to be selected to present my latest research at #COMBINE2025 (part of #ABACBS2025 ) today’s morning. I'll be introducing CellDiffusion, a new generative model to tackle the challenge of annotating complex single-cell and spatial RNA-seq data by using bulk RNA-seq reference.
