Together with #AIMS, the African Institute for Mathematical Sciences, we have an exciting position to fill: The AIMS - Tübingen Junior Research Chair in Machine Learning for Science! 1/2

I was flagged as "irresponsible" reviewer at NeurIPS for a paper providing no algorithm, no theory, no data, no analysis... it is simply an opinionated, colloquial review. I said as much. Instead of looking at it, the AC forced me to add to my review, threatening to reject papers of my co-authors.

@ml4science.bsky.social is currently 17th in the 100k relay race of @unituebingen.bsky.social! 14 laps to go! #ai4science

🎤 An Impression from last nights #ScienceSlam, organized by the #Tübingen AI PhD and Postdoc Assembly (TAPPA) @Kupferbau @unituebingen.bsky.social The audience got a glimpse into AI-related research ranging from self-driving cars to deep learning, computational neuroscience, and probability theory.

Don't miss the #scienceslam of our PhDs and postdocs happening in #Tübingen tomorrow, Thursday, June 5, at 7 pm! And bring your friends who do not work on #AI themselves - the talks will be understandable for everyone.

ML for Science@ml4science.bsky.social · last yr.

Mark your calendars: On Thursday, June 5, at 7 pm, our PhDs and postdocs will present "Tübingen Talks Tech," a science slam on AI. In fun 10-minute presentations, they will share insights into their work. More information: uni-tuebingen.de/en/165313#c2... #scienceslam #AI #Tuebingen #Tübingen

We have several open, fully-funded PhD and Postdoc positions at my group, now at the University of Tübingen. Please #RT and share with potential candidates! Generally: AI for scientific discoveries in physics 🔥. mariokrenn.wordpress.com/wp-content/u...

When I went to the US in 1998 as a high school student, the "land of the free" offered remarkable new perspectives on my home country Germany. As a liberal-left German, the flags, the pledge of allegiance and patriotism were strange, yet also fascinating in a weird way.

We all need to watch carefully what is happening in the US and what could happen if our own fascists come into power (again)

And make no mistake about it... Attacking higher education like this, particularly a private institution to try and force them to bend a knee to your will is verrrrry fascist. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fascism

This is where @hertie-ai.bsky.social will be located in three years or so!

And another one: We show how to use a diffusion model for #fundus images for #counterfactual reasoning in #ophthalmology! If you ever wondered how the fundus images of your patient had looked, if he had been suffering from diabetic retinopathy, check this out ⬇️ journals.plos.org/digitalhealt...

We had a paper accepted today! In the first round, Rx provided a long, forceful rant why our paper wasn't a big advance, how the figures are poorly done and so on. We pushed back politely and answered the points we thought were reasonable. Today, Rx: "Sorry for my rant, the paper is good." Cudos!

Thanks Christian!

In a blow to many foreign medical researchers who rely on U.S. funding, the NIH has announced that by the end of September, it will halt what are known as “foreign subawards,” in which U.S. researchers share their grant money with overseas collaborators. scim.ag/42UpRyQ

📣 Now out in Nature Communications as part of the MICrONS package: Our study on excitatory morphological cell types in mouse visual cortex led by Marissa Weis. We describe a set of principles that capture the morphological diversity excitatory neurons. A thread: (1/12) www.nature.com/articles/s41...
