She/her. I turn pictures into numbers so others can turn them into medicine. Also I yell about politics a lot. Prev. BoSoxBioBeth/CiminiLab on the bird and [email protected] on the elephant. Views my own, awesome science from my amazing team.

⌛ Counting down to SBI2 2025! What's your must-see at this year's conference? AI-driven imaging and analysis, 3D models, new imaging techniques? Comment below to let us know!

🚨Next week, Wed 05/03 | 16:00 UK - Online Seminar🚨 "Turning morphology into numbers across microscopy scales and modalities" by Dr Virginie Uhlmann. To attend online please register to our 📧 for the zoom link: lists.cam.ac.uk/sympa/subscr...

The deadline for #mmc2025 abstract submissions is *TOMORROW* (28 Feb) Time to get busy and make sure you take your place at this great event for the #microscopy, #imaging and #FlowCytometry community! Abstract submissions: ow.ly/NxPZ50V7x2t @rmsearlycareer.bsky.social

Breaking: Trump's full trans military ban has just dropped. Quickly reading it, it appears to be a full separation from the military for all transgender military members, and states being trans is inconsistent with "honesty, humility, uniformity, and integrity." A sad day for this nation.

BREAKING: The NIH summer internship program (SIP) has been officially cancelled, across all institutes. It’s a sad loss for the brightest science students in America, for American science, and for future cures for diseases like cancer and Alzheimer’s. 🧪 1/

This is terrifying.

Just some amazing signs up in a congressional office building. Whoever did this… hero(es).

I’ve written up a fuller version of this take at Arc Digital www.arcdigital.media/p/the-unbear...

#biabob, the AI-based code generator for Jupyter Notebooks, can now be configured to generate code for other scientific domains🔭, coding-styles 🎭 and languages🗣️. Handle with care, as you can also use this to do stupid things. 😉 Feedback welcome🚀 pip install bia-bob==0.26.0 github.com/haesleinhuep...

#MicroscopyMonday! #microscopycommunity, join us for “Networking a core: Concerns and obstacles when collaborating with IS&T” as part of the @bioimagingna.bsky.social EoE Virtual Group meeting on Feb 26 at 1pm ET lead by Jason Hill - free and online! Register here https://buff.ly/419xemo

⏰ You only have until 4 March to submit your abstract for #ELMI2025 ⏰ Share your research with the light microscopy community and network with the experts in the field! Submit your abstract here ➡️ s.embl.org/elmi25-01-bl

As someone who spends a decent amount of my professional life working with AI tools, using an LLM to decide if someone's work is "mission critical" is such a dumb fucking idea that whoever thought of it should be shot into the sun to preserve the human gene pool.

Delighted to tell you about the newest preprint from our lab, from the amazing @sugansivaguru.bsky.social - ever wondered what dyes are the right dyes for image based profiling? Hop into a 🧵 to learn more about "Alternate dyes for image-based profiling assays" (1/x) www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

In Stalin's USSR geneticists were, for political reasons, labelled "fly lovers who hate people" (мухолюбы-человеконенавистники). Soviet genetics died as a field. A complementary way to kill biomedical research that yields lifesaving medicines is to defund it for equally political reasons:

Our paper “A genome-wide atlas of human cell morphology” is finally out today in @naturemethods.bsky.social ! www.nature.com/articles/s41... (I tweeted about our preprint in 2023 over at the bad place, but deactivated my account, so here we go again!)

Applications for our Quantitative Imaging: From Acquisition to Analysis 2025 course (Mar 24-Apr 8) are due on Jan 31! Come immerse yourself in microscopy and image analysis with me, @talleylambert.bsky.social, @bethcimini.bsky.social, @florianjug.bsky.social & Hunter Elliott! Please RT

Ugh NA's gone to hell, who forgot to feed the objective?

What are the most exciting bioimage analysis conferences happening in 2025?

New paper out! We share our experiences from conducting #bioimageanalysis workshops, using open-source software and building a community around training: doi.org/10.1002/jemt... Thanks to the dream team of rockstars, @david-j-barry.bsky.social, @martinjones.bsky.social and Tom Slater

The Weather Channel was doing the science of why Rudolph's nose helps Santa so much in the fog and they said it was because red was a "longer, stronger" wavelength and I think my sigh could be heard for many many wavelengths around.

Not only that, but the posters from #CBIAS2024 are now online! crick.figshare.com/collections/...

Work with amazing people on critical problems! What else could you ask for?
