We care a lot about time. Now one of my best science friends, Melania Barile, et al. introduce TemporalVAE, a deep generative model that maps scRNA-seq data onto developmental time! It works with zero-shot & identifies time-sensitive genes @natcellbio.nature.com

US terminates its support for @gavi.org the vaccine alliance that supplies life-saving vaccines the world’s poorest. Vaccines are among the safest, most effective prevention measures ever introduced. This is a disastrous and short-sighted decision!
US to stop financial support of global vaccine alliance Gavi, health secretary says
Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr said on Wednesday that the U.S. government will no longer contribute to Gavi, accusing the group that helps buy vaccines for the world's poorest children of ignoring safety, without providing evidence.

decoupler has been very useful for us & helps you dive into meaningful sc analysis quickly!

small suggestion to increase uptake: consider changing the logo, at least two python users here initially immediately closed the tab as they thought is was an R package🙃

🔧 decoupler 2.0.6 is out thanks to @paubadiam.bsky.social‬, now as a core @scverse.bsky.social package scverse.org

🚨 Preprint Alert! New work from the group!

🟤 We set out to explore how brown adipose tissue (BAT) adapts to cold.

🧬🖥️ Using single-nucleus mRNA-sequencing, we dissected murine BAT and uncovered distinct adipocyte subtypes.

🫓 One in particular stood out...

I had similar issues about a week ago, I guess the server now unstable with all the staff fired and chaos caused by ElMu and Trump - try the European one: europepmc.org, often anyway more useful as it includes biorxiv.

This!

Also well put in this editorial in PLOS Comp Biol:
Putting benchmarks in their rightful place: The heart of computational biology
doi.org/10.1371/jour...
Screenshot from paper that says: "Developing good and comprehensive benchmarks, in which the performance metrics of each tool reflect its real-world utility, requires a significant effort. For highly competitive and established fields, such as protein structure predictions, community experiments evaluating the methods have been held periodically to provide blinded assessments of prediction performance. These blinded assessments are perhaps the gold standard on how benchmarks should be run. However, in most areas of computational biology, no such regular blinded contests are available. Instead, many tool developers end up generating their own benchmarks, which they publish alongside a newly developed tool to show its improved performance. The downside of this approach is that, if a new approach is developed in parallel to assembly of the benchmark on which it is evaluated, there is a strong selection bias encouraging the authors to report tool development approaches performing well against the benchmark compared to previous tools. This reporting bias makes most benchmarks that accompany newly developed tools questionable. Even if the authors are aware of this problem and take conscious steps to separate benchmark, evaluation method, and method development, subconscious bias may persist and affect the final outcome."
