The ideal outcome for science isn't a couple of labs using proprietary models and millions of dollars to crack trophy problems, it's to have millions of AI-aided human scientists who follow their curiosity and become way more ambitious

i need someone at @OpenAI and @AnthropicAI to teach the models that while prototyping, backwards compatibility is just a bad idea

🚀 Today we’re releasing FlashOptim: better implementations of Adam, SGD, etc, that compute the same updates but save tons of memory. You can use it right now via `pip install flashoptim`. 🚀 arxiv.org/abs/2602.23349 A bunch of cool ideas make this possible: [1/n]

I'm looking for a Swiss department to host me for an SNSF StG. I research how gene expression evolves and emerges by combining wet lab + computational work in a variety of model systems. More: timothyfuqua.com If your department might be a match, let’s chat!

OK can you guys please dedicate even half the energy you collectively use critiquing Empire of AI to also critique the massive work of harmful pseudoscience by Yud and Soares that was also a NYT Bestseller

I just published a video showing how to use Pixi and Napari-Easy-Augment-Batch-DL for reproducible deep learning segmentation. In this example, I use Pixi to set up a Python environment then launch Napari to explore and compare Cellpose3 and Micro-SAM. youtu.be/3ObAnSTBri8

A thread of thoughts on radiance fields, from my keynote at 3DV: Radiance fields have had 3 distinct generations. First was NeRF: just posenc and a tiny MLP. This was slow to train but worked really well, and it was unusually compressed --- The NeRF was smaller than the images.

Media can actually boost your child's language learning! The secret? Simply talk to them about what they watched. Include natural language variability, just like in everyday conversations. Prof. Mani @nivedita_mani from @uniGoettingen shares interesting facts and tricks for boosting language learning, don't miss the upcoming episode on Monday! #LanguageLearning #ChildDevelopment #MediaUse #LanguageAcquisition #KidsEducation #Communication

Ali @AliHShaib from @uniGoettingen co-developed the One-step Nanoscale Expansion (ONE) microscopy, a revolutionary, accessible super-resolution technique. ONE combines expansion microscopy with fluorescence fluctuation analysis, enabling visualization of protein structures at nanometer resolution using conventional light microscopes. For a detailed discussion of this breakthrough, watch our latest episode🎧 🔗 youtu.be/lZry8WV4j3g Subscribe to our YouTube channel for exclusive content and in-depth discussions on cutting-edge science!

That's a wrap for #EMBLDeepLearning 🌠 A huge thank you to everyone who attended this advanced course 🙌 We hope the hands-on element of applying deep learning-based methods to your own data and image analysis problems was useful. Until next time!

Because we have seen these improvements and due to popular demand, we have decided to start a call for community data submission to further improve our models: computational-cell-analytics…. Looking forward to any feedback!
