Metabolites are not genes — avoiding the misuse of pathway analysis in metabolomics - Nature Metabolism
Pathway analysis, originally developed for gene expression data, has been adapted for metabolomics. However, owing to the unique characteristics and constraints of metabolites compared with genes, pathway analysis in metabolomics often yields misleading or nonsensical results.

Many people hours, calls and messages later: OSTA is now “in (pre)print”, though the real thing lives at bioconductor.org/books/OSTA.
Check it out, get in touch. We welcome any feedback, suggestions, wishes (& contributions).

Does water always recede prior to the arrival of a tsunami?
I was asked this yesterday after posting a graph of observed water levels at a station in Hawaii, which shows water levels first *increasing,* contrary to what many have heard about tsunamis.
The answer: no, not always! A thread... 🧵 1/9

This month I defended my master's thesis in Bioinformatics at @upf.edu! In my internship at @ki.se in @ejvillablanca.bsky.social's lab, I used bulk, single-cell and spatial transcriptomics to study changes in ulcerative colitis patients. Looking forward to keeping working in this exciting field!

it's the 10 year anniversary of a very important study
![In 2015, researchers Limb, Limb, Limb and Limb found that British doctors have surnames related to their specialties more often than expected by chance. Reproductive medicine had the largest proportion, with 1 in 52 doctors having specialty-relevant surnames including Horn, Hussey, and Woodcock. Second was Urology, with 1 in 59 related names such as Burns, Waterfall, Ball, and Koch.[96] "Dr Pain" appeared most commonly in general surgery.[96]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:cyyd366g3hrxp5rynixm2mm3/bafkreiddq3sctguxn4xgf4mfxyu43qh7e2htev3iktz5siwagfpdswfy3q@jpeg)

#Bluetorial: In our latest paper on #gdTcells and #IBD in #ScienceImmunology we found that γδ IEL number and regulatory function are severely compromised BEFORE ileal inflammation occurs, suggesting that γδ IELs may maintain IEL homeostasis in response to a pro-inflammatory microenvironment. 1/n
