I am happy and proud that our DANIO-CODE @daniocode paper is finally out in Nature Genetics @NatureGenet! I wish to say thank you to everyone who helped and supported our work up until now, with the hope we can continue to deliver in the future as well!

looking to develop your computational biology skills ..... we have an new MSc course running at Cardiff uni this year! take a look ... cardiff.ac.uk/study/postgrad…

Can we build multimodal models by simply aligning pretrained unimodal models with limited paired data?

We introduce STRUCTURE 🏗️: a lightweight, plug-and-play regularizer that preserves latent geometry to align frozen unimodal models using <1% of paired data typically used in thening #MultimodalAlignment

🚀 +51.6% avg boost in zero-shot classification
🔍 +91.8% in retrieval tasks

Very proud of the fantastic team @FabianGroger @ShuoWen18 Huyen Le

Why are there intronic reads in your bulk RNA-seq data?
You're not alone—it's common, and the reasons are more layered than you think.
Let’s break it down. 🧵

New lab preprint - an awesome collaboration with @jjtenagu lab and @A_RuizHerrera and @malmuedocas labs is just out - check out the regulatory dynamics of zebrafish spermatogenesis 👇

Congrats @JM_Gahan !!! Highly recommended positions in a good group! Also, Nematostella is a very cool model to work with!
