Excellent, comprehensive rundown of the state of bio lab automation by @owlposting1.bsky.social In retrospect, it's an important topic that has had almost zero discussion over the years! A fun surprise to see some decade-old(!) work show up in there too. www.owlposting.com/p/heuristics...

I read this cool piece by @owlposting1.bsky.social on endometriosis on @scientificdiscovery.dev's recommendation www.owlposting.com/p/endometrio... One point is that endometriosis is very common, 10% of women according to the WHO. Which makes the paltry research (funding) even more galling.

posting will be a little delayed for a bit. winter is tough between being mildly sick for the last 1.5 weeks and doing two very ambitious blog projects at the same time, i think sticking to my an-essay-every-two-weeks timeline will not bring me Joy
