Introducing torchGWAS that runs 512 GWAS under a minute! Although my team had quite some other papers out in the last year that deserve promoting, I like this one because it shows real progress modernizing the hardware for GWAS.

I am sorry. I know you tried hard not to witness it
The BBC has witnessed Israeli settlers attack Palestinians and set fire to olive trees in the occupied West Bank. 🎧 #GlobalNewsPod bbc.in/4hXVX4b

Integrating RNA-seq, metabolomics & proteomics, @GeraldineMaier mapped how exercise rewires metabolism across tissues:
• Glycolysis
• Fat oxidation
• Ketone use
• BCAA metabolism

Using AI to write for you - start to finish - is really just you robbing yourself of one of life’s greatest joys: to think through a problem and figure out what you think about it, and in the process becoming passionate enough to take on the new challenge of solving it.

Netanyahu called me a liar when settlers detained me, along with a NYT photographer, in Zanuta this past July.
Now, he is calling a Washington Post photographer a liar.
Netanyahu, you are the liar with the blood of Palestinian children on your hands.
The Prime Minister’s Office:
The facts surrounding the confrontation near Abu Falah, during which Washington Post photojournalist Heidi Levine was allegedly assaulted, remain unclear and are under investigation.
Israel unequivocally condemns violence against anyone—Jews, Arabs, Christians or journalists. Those responsible will be held accountable.
But serious questions remain. Reports indicate some 200 Arabs and far-left activists confronted approximately 40 Israeli youths. Footage shows masked individuals on both sides hurling objects, amid reports of fireworks fired at Jewish youths. Other footage appears to show Levine knocked down and immediately helped to her feet by the same unidentified individual.
The investigation must establish the facts, including who initiated the violence.
We will not allow disputed incidents to be exploited to demonize the hundreds of thousands of law-abiding Jewish residents of Judea and Samaria.
The facts must determine the conclusions. Not the headlines.

Netanyahu’s father was born in Poland. His grandfather was born in Russia. Their family name is originally Mileikowsky.

Abdul El-Sayed on Iran:
War in Iran. Everybody could have told you this is a dumb idea.
There was really only one person in the whole world who's had a 40-year project to get us to fight this war.
He's a prime minister of another government.
And he finally found the dumbass who was willing to do it.

I am absolutely convinced that if Israel fired a nuclear missile at Tehran, around ninety percent of the British political and media establishment would explain in grave tones why it was necessary, if regretable, and that those who object are vile extremists and antisemites.

Anthropic engineers just released the best 1-hour course on building agents with Opus 5.5:
"Opus 5.5 is the best model for building agentic systems."
00:00 - intro to Managed Agents
07:45 - Opus 5.5 brain + architecture
23:40 - skills, loops, memory graphs
54:00 - agent dreaming and orchestration
Prompts → Agents → Loops → Graphs
most people will stop after the architecture chapter and call it an agent
the last twenty minutes are where the agents start running each other
same model, same tokens, completely different week
watch it today

Replying to @kjaganatha
a testament to the original SpliceAI too! it looks like more task-specific models in biology are going to have a lot of staying power with performance like this

This work is not getting enough attention. These are pretty massive leaps in modeling splicing. Very excited about this. Need to do a deep read but the performance on diverse splicing related tasks looks really good.
#SpliceAI2 splice variant effect benchmarks. Considerably improved performance in 9 evaluations spanning cryptic splicing, sQTLs, MPRAs, population genetics, plasma proteins, and rare disease. 🧬✂️🧵

Check out the new flagship paper from @SMaHTnetwork , and it made the cover of @CellCellPress! 🎉 So honored to have had the opportunity to contribute to this work : )
We are all mosaics with our cells accumulating somatic mutations as we age. Now that is getting fully comprehensively quantified @CellCellPress
