people that write about exploiting #AI in their research but have no clue about AI (often using a #LLM to write their posts) - for all that somewhat know how AI works/is applied, it sounds really fake and brings your #credibility down.
Can we all please be real? a challenge in the current climate

Not surprising, we observed indirect beneficial effects of vaccination with Salmonella in previous work ( www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...). I see it like having your immune system going to the gym, gets stronger and more able to cope with stress

Nonspecific effects of oral vaccination with live-attenuated Salmonella Typhi strain Ty21a

Vaccination with weakened strains of Salmonella may protect against other infections.

another enriching day of outreach with some super engaged groups of year 8 students! It was extremely tough to judge our robot programming competition and we needed the help of our volunteers to decide! Thanks as always to the WP and outreach team for supporting us in running these events :)

Resourcing bioinformatics functions on #research projects with #PhD students, under supervision of supervisors without #bioinformatics expertise is...
(A) Wrong and foolish
(B) One of many ways of wasting research funds
(C) One of many ways of ruining student experience
(D) All of the above & more
