Are you interested in learning more about how data can be used? Do you want to network with other staff and students? Then you don't want to miss Data Discoveries, a two-week showcase starting next week exploring the breadth of data science at York. linktr.ee/datadiscoveries202…
A poster for the Data Discoveries event at the University of York. White text on a navy background. Text says: Data Discoveries, the future is data driven. Data science is one of the most in-demand skills in the world today and you will likely use it more than you think. Data Discoveries is a two week interdisciplinary showcase that will explore how data is used in both research and industry. With events and talks spanning a wide range of subjects, you'll have the chance to network, appreciate the breadth of data science at York and pick up an idea or two for your own data challenges.

Chat-GPT is remarkable in many ways. We asked it "What is the best way to index a vcf file?" and it gave us a very useful answer. And then we asked it to rewrite the answer in the style of Chaucer... #chatgpt #bioinformatics

"First, Tabix, a tool oft sung, 'tis true, An index file (.tbi) it doth imbue. With swiftness, variants it doth retrieve, By genomic coordinates, it doth achieve. Through binning scheme, vast files it doth face, Thus suited for grand VCF's ample space."

Tangential tweet, but this web app that lets you mix-up different emoji is incredible. A sceptical microbe emoji always seemed like a missed opportunity... until now. In all seriousness, could be very handy for talks or teaching materials. emojikitchen.dev/

Super thread by Ewan, as always. Be very aware of the limitations of any method you use but, at the same time, don't dismiss the method *because* of those limitations.

Idly reading another single cell paper (it is ... impressive how the technology) and authors using phrases like "neighbourhood" and "close to" clearly refering the reader to the UMAP display...

Delighted to announce the publication of this work from my PhD! We show that metabolically independent microbes associated with human gut “dysbiosis” may not in fact be causal of disease, but instead selected for under stressful conditions. (1/4) doi.org/10.1186/s13059-023-0…
