Snakemake pipeline for processing single cell data - marusakod/scprocess

In a recent paper, SFI Complexity Postdoctoral Fellow Yuanzhao Zhang and co-author William Gilpin show that a deceptively simple forecasting strategy can outperform several leading machine learning forecasting models. Their method, called context parroting, relies on short stretches of time-series data (or context). As it moves through the time series, it scans for similar patterns or motifs that appeared earlier in the sequence, and uses those patterns to predict what might come next.

The tech world’s new favourite measure comes with several caveats

Basal cells, rather than neuroendocrine cells, have been identified as the probable origin of small cell lung cancer and other neuroendocrine–tuft cancers, explaining neuroendocrine–tuft heterogeneity and offering new perspectives for targeting lineage plasticity.

Fans of the global social-media platform explain how best to harness its career-boosting and collaboration potential.

The body positivity movement is over.

Much of the food consumed in the United States is ultraprocessed. Evidence indicates that ultraprocessed food, as a class, has contributed to high rates of chronic diseases.

Earlier this year I came across this interesting post by mathematician Daniel Litt, where he pondered how many intrinsically true results in mathematics have been published with erroneous proofs: D…
