Unfortunately, in the modern way of doing science, this is not getting the attention it should get.

This week’s recap highlights the new Datavzrd tool for interactive visualization and communication of tabular data (I’m genuinely really looking forward to trying this one), tracing the shared foundations of gene expression and chromatin structure, PISA for visualizing cis-regulatory rules in genomic data, fast protein structure searching using structure graph embeddings, and a review/perspective on intrinsically disordered regions as

InvenioRDM is the open source turn-key research data management platform, with detailed documentation available here. InvenioRDM Starter facilitates deployment and configuration of InvenioRDM, allowing you to run InvenioRDM on your local computer within 15 min. This is achieved by providing a) a prebuilt Invenio-App-RDM Docker image, and b) a Docker Compose configuration file with sensible defaults.

Am 26. Juni 2025 durfte ich an der Fachhochschule Münster über ein Thema sprechen, das vielen Wissenschaftler*innen unter den Nägeln brennt: Wie publiziere ich sinnvoll, sichtbar und nachhaltig? In meinem Vortrag „Publikationsstrategien für Wissenschaftler*innen“ ging es unter anderem um: Warum überhaupt publizieren? Zwischen Publish or Perish und echter Wissenschaftskommunikation: Reputation, Karrierewege

Richard Wallis and Christa van Raalte argue for greater honesty and pragmatism in addressing the talent pipeline. The prominence of the creative industries in the UK government’s industrial strategy as one of eight growth sectors to be prioritised will be welcomed by most of us involved in screen education.
