I am a #bioinformatics scientist and technical lead in #protein #sequence, #structure and #genome informatics. I work mostly in the space of tertiary genome analysis and I enjoy combining my IT and #science skills to deliver high performance and scalable scientific #algorithms, applications, and web sites for large user communities.

I set up my own #mastodon account on a #rasperrypi . I will migrate this account over to @andreas and do my own share in contributing to the #fediverse . Thanks to @WandernAustria and @stephan324ppm for having allowed me to join their instance and get my initial exposure here!

Heat pumps are 🔥 right now.

In 2021 the global heat pump market grew by an impressive 13% - the highest growth rate ever recorded.

Even more impressive are the regional growth figures:

🇪🇺 Europe: 35%
🇺🇸 US: 15%
🇨🇳 China: 13%

Structural Biologists evaluate the use of AlphaFold2 (AF2) predictions in the study of characteristic structural elements; the impact of missense variants; function and ligand binding site predictions; modeling of interactions; and modeling of experimental structural data. https://www.nature.com/articles/s41594-022-00849-w #AlphaFold #StructuralBiology #proteins
A structural biology community assessment of AlphaFold2 applications - Nature Structural & Molecular Biology

Here, the authors evaluate the performance of AlphaFold2 and its predicted structures on common structural biological applications, including missense variants, function and ligand binding site prediction, modeling of interactions and modeling of experimental structural data.

#YoMigroaMastodon

I don't think Mastodon or the fediverse has ever received this much attention before. It's a great opportunity for people to finally see that social media can be done differently, that it can be a protocol not under control of any single company.

#SaveWildBees 🐝
Did you know there are an estimated 20,000 species of bees?

If you see campaigns to #SavetheBees, make sure they are talking about #WildBees.

#HoneyBee hives are beneficial to livelihoods and provide #pollination to crops, but they are livestock. They don't need to be "saved" from extinction.

In fact, #EuropeanHoneyBee (Apis mellifera, the most common #honeybee) populations have been growing in recent years.
