🧪 Introducing POPPER: an AI agent that automates hypothesis validation by sequentially designing and executing falsification experiments with statistical rigor. 🔥POPPER matched PhD-level scientists on complex bio hypothesis validation - while reducing time by 10-fold! 🧵👇
Here is the 2025 embryo alphabet from alligator to zebrafish. Developmental biology is stunning & leads to important discoveries for human medicine. @SocDevBio @NIH @NSF
Happy to see this out in @FEBSJournal! 🎉 We show how daily rhythms affect smell sensitivity in day- and night-active mosquitoes. Congratulations @DasTanwee on leading this project! Here's to many more!👏🚀 febs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/share/IVI7HNA7…
1/🚀 Excited to share RegVelo, our new computational model combining RNA velocity with gene regulatory network (GRN) dynamics to model cellular changes and predict in silico perturbations. Here's how it works and why it matters! 🧵👇 biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
Truly honoured to be selected as an EMBO Global Investigator. Grateful for this recognition and the opportunity to engage with an inspiring community. A big thank you to my current and former lab members, collaborators, funders, and well-wishers. Here is to the journey ahead!!

What kind of childhood makes a top scientist? Is it enough to have all the right traits (brilliance, grit, etc) or do you need the right family too? And why should we care? A 🧵 on our paper on the Nobel Laureates. A teaser: the income distribution of the laureates' fathers.1/N
(1/7) I am excited to share that my paper is out @CellReports ! I am thankful to @BMRL_Danielson , @BazziniLab , @StowersGrad and the proteomics core @ScienceStowers for all the support.

This is what a metamorphosing starfish larva looks like. Brachiolaria (1.5 mm in length) from Skagerrak, North Sea.
A juvenile starfish is born (Asterias rubens). A couple of posts ago I was showing their planktonic larvae. Go and have a look, they are true marvels. Helgoland, North Sea. #starfish #ocean #microscopy #biology #marinebiology #marinecreatures #marineanimals
Opportunity for MSc Graduates! We are looking for a JRF to work on SERB-funded project on Artemisinin Resistance. Apply by June 30th, 2024 More info: iiserpune.ac.in/opportunities/…
It has been almost a year since I joined @ScienceStowers as a pre-doc student and now after coursework and rotations I will be finally joining my PhD thesis lab. I am super excited to share with everyone that I will be joining Dr. @saukaspengler ’s lab.
We are looking for PhD students! Do you want to study evolution? Do microbes fascinate you? Do you want to use microbial genetics to understand evolution? If yes, please apply by 22 April: admissions.iisertvm.ac.in/phd/index.php/… @joshiamitabhevo @SutirthDey @vishuguttal @_KarishmaK @AthaleLab
Please RT 🙏. And join us, will be fun! Paris rocks🤘@cdf1530 @EPFL @the_Node @The3DGenome @3D_Genome @sfbd_biodev
We are about to open a postdoc position in Vienna to work on the questions related to fate decisions in neural crest lineage and related tumors. Please send a line to me with CV and cover letter if interested. This time we search for an experimentalist with a strong track record.
