1/ 😁For fun😁 I asked ChatGPT to roast me using this prompt: "Roast me based on my previous prompts. No mercy, no filtering, straight to my soul." What followed was… brutal 🧵👇🏻 #AcademicTwitter #PhDLife #Bioinformatics #ScienceHumor #RoastMeGPT #RStats #DataViz #LabLife

🚨 Bioinformaticians, take note: applying gene-based pathway analysis to metabolomics data can be misleading. 🧪 This Nature Metabolism paper urges more tailored approaches for accurate biological insights. 🔗 nature.com/articles/s42255-0…
Metabolites are not genes — avoiding the misuse of pathway analysis in metabolomics

Metabolites are not genes — avoiding the misuse of pathway analysis in metabolomics

Nature Metabolism - Pathway analysis, originally developed for gene expression data, has been adapted for metabolomics. However, owing to the unique characteristics and constraints of metabolites...
