Machine learning research is not serious research and therefore hallucinated references are not necessarily a big deal, agrees a prestigious group of machine learning researchers statmodeling.stat.columbia.edu/2026/01/26/mac…











🔬Dr. Bianca Dumitrascu led a new study published in @NatureMethods on a computational pipeline linking spatial transcriptomics + mechanical forces in tissue development. Read more: bit.ly/4kCgT1q #CancerResearch #Mechanobiology #SpatialTranscriptomics #IICDColumbia






🚨 #ChatGPT + @napari_imaging 🚨 Releasing my latest weekend project: Omega, an autonomous LLM agent that writes image processing and analysis code, fixes its mistakes, accesses the napari viewer, makes widgets, & more! github.com/royerlab/napar… @langchain @OpenAI #OmegaAgent


Congrats to IICD core faculty member @ElhamAzizi, recipient of the 2025 Vilcek Prize for Creative Promise in Biomedical Science. The @Vilcek award celebrates the contributions of immigrant artists and scientists in the U.S. Read the @CUSEAS announcement: bit.ly/3Q1MKud

In a paper published today in Science Immunology, a research team led by @columbiaBME @elhamazizi has identified a specific population of immune cells that play a critical role in the successful treatment of relapsed acute myeloid leukemia (AML). The work, in collaboration with @Cancer_dynamics and the Dana Farber Cancer Institute, leverages the team's innovative DIISCO approach, a machine-learning method used to analyze how cell interactions change over time with a focus on cancer and immune cells profiled in clinical specimens.
