A Shiny app to simulate data and fit a Bayesian nonlinear regression for several common functions in biology. This is intended to get a feel for Bayesian nonlinear regression and how much different experimental designs matter based on your assumptions.

👨‍🚀 The #Artemis II crew are now further from home than any humans ever, and European engines brought them there 🚀. 🌍 The record of 400 171 km was previously held by the Apollo 13 mission 🌕.

Reid Wiseman on #Artemis II: "We have Earth out window 4 and Moon out window 3... the Moon is about 3-4 times the size of the Earth and it is almost full, and the Earth is just a small crescent out there... it's magnificent... such a majestic view out here" Mission Control: "Amaze, amaze, amaze!"

how are we basically at the end of march, this year was born yesterday somebody please make it slow down I'm still catching up with last year's errands

today was the first full sunny day in many days and I'm sad to report the *air* is already attacking me, hay fever season here we go

back from Glasgow and still processing all the input, but I can safely say it was a great experience where I met several amazing people with incredible research and hosted my first session as primary chair! #OSM26 now I'm back to my usual routine, with lots to do and lots to study👩‍💻 (send help

Today’s poster session was amazing! Lots of incredible nerds talking about the oceans #OSM26 Tomorrow shall be even greater, come check out my session at the Dochart room from 10:30-12h. Many many great talks, including Elena Litchman’s talk on traits being the way to go. Don’t miss it! ✨🌊🌊🌊✨

Around 6,000 ocean scientists are meeting in Glasgow at the AGU Ocean Sciences Meeting, discussing how fossil-fuel-caused climate change is affecting sea levels, ocean currents and life in our oceans. #OSM26

I think this might be one of my favorite things at #OSM26. This “silent disco” style parallel talks where you can tune in to different talks, sit or just walk around. The room is quiet and cooled down. Not nearly as much shifting thru talks as the normal plenary rooms 12/10

It is true friends, I have faced the beast (the largest audience I spoke to ever) and slayed? Lovely experience and lots of great feedback from many people. Feeling like a celebrity being recognized around the halls. Excited to relax and watch talks and talk to peers +

Leaving for Glesga at the crack of dawn tomorrow and still ~checks with manager~ have not finished my packing (nor my presentation But I have faith! Join me in having faith in myself and come watch my talk bright (no sun predicted) and not-so-early Monday at the ME12A session! #OSM2026

Happy birthday to one of my favourite haters, Charles Darwin

I once again made the mistake of ~blinking~ and now the day is gone

Anyone here who's joining #OSM2026 in Glasgow and has interest in reviewing some student posters? I've some posters in my session who will need feedback (but many others will too!). Might be a great way to create a schedule for your conference! Lemme know 👩‍💻

HIFMB newsletter out now! 🦑 In our top story, Bettina Meyer outlines the Krill Stock Hypothesis, a scientific framework for setting krill catch quotas to protect the ecological balance in the Southern Ocean. That and more here: 241806.seu2.cleverreach.com/m/16677411

More than a year ago researchers from @hifmb.de and @icbm-uol.bsky.social started to write about different perspectives on marine biodiversity change from natural and social science perspectives. This morphed into a review paper that was published online today link.springer.com/article/10.1... 🧪

Towards a broader perspective on marine biodiversity change - Marine Biodiversity

Biodiversity decline jeopardizes the foundation of natural ecosystems and human well-being, a concern that prompted major global agreements aiming to bend the curve towards a net positive biodiversity...
