ScPhere (w/ Aviv Regev @broadinstitute @MITBiology @kochinstitute @HHMINEWS, now @genentech) was published @NatureComms nature.com/articles/s41467-0…. ScPhere (pronounced “sphere”, Aviv coined this word & pronunciation) embeds cells into non-Euclidean spaces and addresses batch effects

The retina contains numerous cell types. To what extent are retinal cell types conserved across species that greatly differ in visual needs? Our new preprint attempts to shed light on this question by integrating single-cell transcriptomic data from 17 vertebrate species.

Paper alert! 🚨 Studying the mSWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complex, by single and combinatorial Perturb-seq and SHARE-seq!
Incredibly fun joint work with Jordan Otto Jagielski (her PhD thesis!) and @alexpywu, collab between Regev and @CKadoch labs! 1/n

Our webinar to introduce and release Seurat v5 is tomorrow at 12PM ET! Sign up to learn more about new methods for spatial, multimodal, and highly scalable analysis.
We've been working on Seurat v5 for two years and are excited to share it with you soon!
In a webinar w/@10xGenomics and @ScienceMagazine on 3/29, I'll introduce new methods to analyze spatial/multimodal datasets that scale to tens of millions of cells: view6.workcast.net/register?…

Like prototyping? Genomics? Proof-of-concepts? Tech dev? Apply to this posting for a Research Assistant/Technician position in my group! The seniority of the position is flexible for the right person, so don't be shy if you feel over/under qualified. jobrxiv.org/job/ubc-27778-re…
Thank you! So excited to receive the first grant after joining @UBC_CS!
Congratulations to Dr. @Jiarui_Ding at @UBC_CS on receiving @NSERC_CRSNG funding to uncover the latent structure in #SingleCell multi-#omics data! 🔬
See which other Vancouver researchers received awards in December. 👇

This is huge - will play with the data :)
Very proud and excited to see this study published today with @DmitriyZamarin and @TeamOvary_MSK
nature.com/articles/s41586-0… @Nature with N&V summarizing the study here by Drs. Denarda Dangaj Laniti and George Coukos: nature.com/articles/d41586-0…
Benchmarking studies are badly needed in rapidly growing fields
Nice Tech Feature article. Which single-cell analysis tool is best? Scientists offer advice nature.com/articles/d41586-0…

UBC is hiring 3 asst profs in AI, 1 each in CS, Stats, Math, for a new research cluster on AI Methods for Scientific Impact. They'll join 2 new hires from last year (CS, Stats) and an existing team of 18 core AI researchers across @UBCscience @CAIDA_UBC caida.ubc.ca/aim-si

How to start a presentation?
Most people start with all the boring info (e.g., repeating everything your host just said) and unmotivated technical details. 🥱
After a few mins, everyone starts checking their phone! 😱
How to avoid this? Here is a simple template. 🧵
Excited to see this 'Hello, World!'

Introducing Video PreTraining (VPT): it learns complex behaviors by watching (pretraining on) vast amounts of online videos. On Minecraft, it produces the first AI capable of crafting diamond tools, which takes humans over 20 minutes (24,000 actions) 🧵👇openai.com/blog/vpt
