Tomorrow at the Systems Virology Journal Club, Sonya Widen will present her work with Alejandro Burga on the exchange of cargo genes between extremely divergent species facilitated by virus-like transposons. Paper: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37384706/

It’s a wrap! EvoWorm2024, hosted by IMBA, welcomed 114 attendees and included 43 posters and 50 talks, as well as three workshops on topics ranging from effective scientific communication to nematode sequencing. Thank you to all the attendees and organizers. #evoworm2024

Congratulations, Ping! All the best for you and your science in your new home :)

Exciting news! #AITHYRA, a new OeAW institute, will join the Vienna BioCenter. Headed by Michael Bronstein, the institute will focus on AI and biomedicine, an exciting area for collaborations.

I am looking for a partner in crime who actually understands biology in Vienna — join Aithyra to make some magic oeaw.ac.at/aithyra/news/s…

Amazing news! Congratulations to Gary Ruvkun and Victor Ambros! The power (and beauty) of nematode genetics :)

wow! incredible observation and implications for theevolution of multicellular organisms!

Another "textbook" finding from the @PauliGroup! Congrats Andi and all the team once again :)

Looking for gift ideas for the holidays? 📚🎄 Great selection of books for kids about Darwin and Evolution. It's never too "early" to get started :) Thanks Benedikt Mandl !

So. I am traveling to NeurIPS Conference next week to present my paper, "An Immodest Proposal", at the first session of the Machine Learning for Creativity and Design. In this paper, I propose to build an artwork that's basically an ML model for guessing the size of someone's genitalia. Why? 🧵

What an amazing discovery from Scott Kennedy's lab! A new splicing system that recognizes transposons and removes them from mRNAs! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
