Special sets called groups give researchers a way to study mathematical structure. Recently, after decades of work, mathematicians proved the final case of the McKay conjecture, a statement about a deep relationship between groups and their building blocks. https://buff.ly/4hJgtnM

Maine leads the way of open defiance. Thank you Janet Mills!

We are excited to announce a new faculty position here in Cambridge, for researchers in computational and/or theoretical biology, based jointly in Genetics and Mathematics. Come and join us! Happy to answer questions about research, teaching and working here. www.jobs.cam.ac.uk/job/50414/

Thanks for the kind words Martin! Anyone interested can find the open access book at modernstatisticswithr.com and/or get physical copies where books are sold (the second edition, published by Chapman & Hall last year, has a different cover than the first edition seen in the image).

Deadline is Feb 28! IT:U is a new public university in Austria dedicated to interdisciplinary science. The work conditions are excellent, and it offers a unique opportunity to shape an interdisciplinary institution from its foundations! Get in contact to know more.

Throughout human history, migration has been a vital part of people to find food, shelter, new life and explore. If we are living in one country now, we even don’t know where our past 10th generation lived. Let humanity flow the way it has been for thousands of years. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Esok...

Incredible. Thank You!

A very good map of Portugal by @verygoodmaps. Seriously, a very good map.

Fellow NSA - National Security Agency veterans. Look at what’s happened at the National Cryptologic Museum. They covered up with brown paper the photos of Women in American Cryptology. All in response to President Trump’s anti-diversity executive order.

"Victory and defeat are not absorbing states" is a banger, but I am dropping the most bombastic of side eye towards Meegs for implying that decision theory is the exclusive purview of economists...

🚨 PhD opportunity 🚨 The Whelan lab & @brockhurstlab.bsky.social are seeking a PhD student interested in investigating the ecol & evol of pathogens in cystic fibrosis exacerbations. This PhD is funded as part of @pulse-cf.bsky.social w @alexhorsley.bsky.social et al. More info & link to apply below.

The tidymodels group has an #rstats summer internship position this year. The focus is on feature selection tools. All of the information is in the blog post below. We look forward to seeing your applications! www.tidyverse.org/blog/2025/01...

ellmer (formerly known as elmer) is now on CRAN! ellmer makes it easy to chat with LLM models from a variety of providers and includes support for streaming responses, tool calling and structured data extraction: ellmer.tidyverse.org #rstats

This is part of my effort of rewriting all materials for my UT Austin dataviz class in Quarto. It's going very well. Most importantly, I now have live exercises integrated into the site, thanks to Quarto live. Check it out here: wilkelab.org/SDS366/

Applications open for our MSc in #Quantitative #Ecology & #Evolution @umontpellier.bsky.social

Thanks to Quarto, I now have full-text search across all my class materials, including all slide sets and interactive worksheets. This feature comes out of the box. I didn't have to do anything to make this work.

21. Did you know there's an best time to post a preprint? It isn't at the time of journal submission, as most do. It's ~1 month prior to journal submission. This allows you to get feedback & rack up views/metrics before submitting. Data @steveroyle.bsky.social: buff.ly/49if305 #PreprintAdvent

Today is an as good day as any to point to this script that lets you archive your old tweets and search, browse, or publicly post them, e.g. as HTML on github.io: wolfganghuber.github.io/tweets/ (using R and Quarto)

'Instead of undergoing a pelvic exam, these patients may go to a doctor’s office and collect their own vaginal sample to be tested for human papillomavirus, the infection that causes most cases of cervical cancer, according to new guidelines issued on Tuesday by a national health services panel.'

Today we report that an engineered skin bacterium, swabbed gently on the head of a mouse, can unleash a potent antibody response against a pathogen. Could lead to topical vaccines that are applied in a cream. @djenetbousbaine.bsky.social led the charge... @natureportfolio.bsky.social 1/55
