Starting to brainstorm a "deep sequence models for biologists" class. The plan is to spend a month on intro to ML with PyTorch and then move on to specific useful models / use cases.
Other than AlphaFold and/or ESM what other models would you recommend covering?

RNAseq counting tools are not perfect. I simulated 240 GTEx samples to test multiple tools. Below I show the difference between actual and estimated counts for each simulated sample.
But, what is causing this? And will it affect differential expression? (1/7) #Bioinformatics

thrilled to be a part of this collaboration and apply our cell-type specific networks at @HumanBaseFI to COVID-19.

@misguidedsoul7 He seems to think that once you get to 20%, there is some magic "saturation" that occurs and the virus becomes less lethal. But I have not completely followed the full logic and would love for someone to help me understand.

This man is a Nobel laureate; doesn't seem to get that NYC (which is comparable to some European country populations) had over 2,000 deaths per million population. That infection rates, regionally, have been > NYC. And that the virus in Texas is not watching local NY TV.

Thanks so much. Total population and totally annual natural deaths very similar to EuroMOMO area. Right now there are overall 414 reported deaths/million in US. If same as Europe, US about 80% complete. Certainly hope this is true and US saturates at no more than 170,000 deaths.

Instead of fireworks extravaganzas this July 4, I think a lot of people would feel the American idea were more meaningfully celebrated if cities put that money into social programs that lasted longer than a few minutes and left people truly better off. While panicking zero dogs.

@thehighsign @NYCMayor This is absolutely a hill I will die on. It's so stupid and I get so mad just thinking about it.

@josheidelson Season 1 takes a few episodes and it gets really good. Season 2, OTOH, is some of the best TV I’ve seen. Possible I just oversold this.

Which of these did I give up on too early/ late?
Justified (4-5 seasons in)
Killing Eve (1 season in)
Mad Men (1 season in)
Sopranos (1 season in)
Better Call Saul (2-3 episodes in)
Halt & Catch Fire (2-3 eps in)
Barry (1 ep in)
Leftovers (1/2 an ep in)
Twin Peaks (1/2 an ep in)

@learning_to_die @TheStagmania And definitely not the, what, 1-2 seconds that a runner pass by you.

Exercising during #COViD19 - a new study finds you are at risk in a someone else’s slipstream. Keep 4-5 meters distance running, 10 meters for slow biking. Otherwise run/bike next to someone, not behind them. @jurgenthoelen/belgian-dutch-study-why-in-times-of-covid-19-you-can-not-walk-run-bike-close-to-each-other-a5df19c77d08" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">medium.com/@jurgenthoelen…
