Wir müssen einfach für mehr Bildung sorgen, dachte ich lange. Wir müssen erklären, wie man wissenschaftlich denkt und logische Schlüsse zieht, dann wird alles gut. Das war falsch. Was wir brauchen ist ein Grundkonsens über anständiges Verhalten. Ohne diese Basis ist jedes Wissen umsonst.
Ohne Anstand keine Fakten
Wissenschaftliche Fakten sind wichtig in einer Zeit der Fake News. Aber sie alleine bringen überhaupt nichts.

Did I get it right? Open Source wiped half a trillion $ of perceived value in #AI stocks in one swift move? Wow.

Happy to see that @stephanamstler.bsky.social is today's headliner on the university website with our paper about applying UMI- #nanopore sequencing to the complex #lipoprotein(a) KIV-2 #VNTR. Congrats! Paper at doi.org/n292
Med Uni Innsbruck@i-med.ac.at · 2y agoDie neue Methode UMI-Nanopore-Sequencing erlaubt es, einen komplexen Abschnitt des Lipoprotein(a)-Gens (Atherosklerose-Risikofaktor) präzise zu entschlüsseln und unbekannte Mutationsmuster und deren Wiederholungen zu zählen.

Are you working with one of the genotype imputation servers? Then this is your chance to see new features pretty soon on the server: @lukfor.bsky.social ky.social, @silvidm.bsky.social, and I are hosting our 2nd Nextflow in Genomics Hackathon to boost imputation servers here @i-med.ac.at 1/2

Regulation of protein abundance in normal human tissues www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1... GTEx's proteomics analysis finally out. 700 samples across 5 tissues, nearly 2000 cis-pQTLs, protein-protein correlations and comparison to RNA/eQTL.
Massively parallel reporter assays (MPRAs) testing >680,000 sequences combined with machine learning to improve regulatory element & variant effect prediction. Amazing work by @vagar.bsky.social, Fumitaka Inoue, @jshendure.bsky.social and many others as part of ENCODE. www.nature.com/articles/s41...
Massively parallel characterization of transcriptional regulatory elements - Nature
Lentivirus-based reporter assays for 680,000 regulatory sequences from three cell lines coupled to machine-learning models lead to insights into the grammar of cis-regulatory elements.

40 years ago all of Genbank was published in print form by NAR. The same format today would require over 4 light seconds of shelf space. To a year of progress in 2025.
Honored to receive the Wael Almahmeed & IAS Research Training Fellowship! Grateful for this opportunity and excited to start my project: “Decoding #PCSK9: New Perspectives on the Mature and Furin-Cleaved Forms” in 2025. Thank you for the support! #CardioSky #MedSky #Atherosclerosis
Organelles meets dinos! 🦖🔬 Featuring Mitosaur, ERsaur, Golgisaur, Lysosaur, and others, it's such a creative take on the cellular world we know and love. 💚 Which dino-organelle is your favorite? Let us know below! 👇
When groups meet to brainstorm, good ideas are lost. People bite their tongues due to conformity pressure, noise, and ego threat. A better approach is brainwriting: generate ideas separately, then meet to assess and refine. Group wisdom begins with individual creativity.
In #AtheroTalk 🎙️, we uncover unique insights from leading scientists you won’t hear in typical scientific talks. As we’re new to podcasting, we’d love your feedback to help us improve. Don’t miss these exciting conversations!🫀 #cardiosky #MedSky #science #podcast open.spotify.com/show/2zYZmr7...
This summer, @lukfor.bsky.social and I migrated the Michigan Imputation Server to Nextflow. 2M genomes later, we can say it was a big success. As a Christmas gift, we’re excited to show you how to set up your own local server in under 10 minutes. ##freeimputation genepi.github.io/michigan-imp...
In toxic cultures, people prove their intelligence by tearing others down. In healthy cultures, people use their intelligence to build others up. Knowledge and expertise are not weapons to wield. They're resources to share.
What a fantastic talk Silvia delivered today! Zooming into the dark genome is absolutely fascinating, and it may hold many hidden answers waiting to be discovered! @silvidm.bsky.social @sebschoenherr.bsky.social @meduniibk.bsky.social #GeneticsSky#MedSky #CardioSky
Today @silvidm.bsky.social delivered an impressive talk on her latest research on repetitive regions in the human genome - could they hold the key to the missing heritability? Huge thanks to the Biocenter @meduniibk.bsky.social for hosting this. #ukb #nextflow #lpa #vntrs
Sebastian Schönherr@sebschoenherr.bsky.social · 2y agoA typical shot from my life as a researcher at @meduniibk.bsky.social. Standing in the HPC center with Silvia Di Maio and looking at dark genome regions What's the story behind? 1/n
