Excited to share our R package for microbiome data analysis, published @CellRepMethods, which makes log-ratio lasso regression more accessible for R users, supporting continuous, binary and survival (competing risks) outcomes.

In cancer screening, change over time is the most important signal. In a paper, Batuhan presented at MICCAI last week, we proposed a neural net model to exploit longitudinal mammograms to better quantify breast cancer risk. link.springer.com/chapter/10…

🧠Neuroimaging peeps🧠 our field is blessed with beautiful visualizations. Our preprint provides 3 tools to help move toward code-based & replicable visualization:
📗practical guide (why should I?)
📦package selector (which one?)
🏗️code template generator (how do I start?)

Wow... 80% of genes are differentially expressed in living versus post-mortem prefrontal cortex tissue. Importantly implications for studying the 'living' biology of the human brain, rather than heavy reliance on what post-mortem tissue shows us. medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
