It is with a mix of emotions that I finally announce this work, my very last w/ @atulbutte. Atul believed in the power of open data and our ability to learn from the data we already have to improve healthcare now. This work is a tribute to this belief, made possible by his career

ALT Issue cover for Volume 5, Issue 8 Aug 18, 2025 On the cover: In this issue of Cell Reports Methods, Papenberg et al. present an anticlustering algorithm for balanced batch assignment in high-throughput sequencing studies and other applications. The cover image depicts the anticlust algorithm optimizing the assignment of units, such as samples, to balanced batches. Created with biorender.com

Scientists at Gladstone and @UCSF have identified a combination of two anticancer drugs that the researchers suggest may reverse the changes that occur in the brain during Alzheimer’s disease, potentially slowing or even reversing its symptoms.
