“I’m an ML researcher, but I don’t know biology.” “I’m a life scientist or chemist, but I don’t code.” At #AITHYRA neither is a barrier. In fact, bringing different perspectives together is exactly what we value most. PhD Call in AI for Biomedicine: phd.aithyra.at #PhDProgram #AI #LifeSciences

Those who have been in the @aithyra.bsky.social conference room in Vienna have met our pony-sized wooden horse Paripa. In Hungarian🇭🇺, "paripa" means a noble steed, the kind of mount fit for heroic folklore. Yet its lineage tells a humbler tale. 🧵👇

Magnolia season has arrived in Oxford 🌸 📷 Instagram | LinaFromOxford, UmairAtOxford & Yannan645

Pink magnolia blossoms frame Magdalen Tower against a bright blue sky, with warm spring sunlight illuminating the stone facade and neatly trimmed gardens below.

A magnolia tree in full bloom stands beside stone steps and traditional lanterns at Balliol College, its pink flowers contrasting with the historic golden buildings.

Magnolia branches covered in pink blossoms stretch across the foreground, partially framing the main tower and gardens of Mansfield College under a partly cloudy sky.

Sunlit magnolia branches hang over the arched entrance at New College, casting soft shadows on the textured stone walls and windows beneath.
