Our lab is growing! In our Three Questions series, we’re profiling each of our members and the amazing work they’re doing. This post introduces Lucía Céspedes , a research associate at ScholCommLab. In this interview, Lucía tell us about her exciting work and encourages us to dare to write, rewrite, and publish, while letting go of the unachievable desire to read it all. Q#1 What are you working on at the lab?

April 2025 ReSA has released its 2024 Community Report, highlighting another impactful year of global collaboration to advance research software and support the people behind it. This year’s highlights include the Research Software Funders Forum’s involvement in the Global Research Council’s annual meeting and the successful hosting of its third international workshop in Sweden.

The first time I heard the expression "low hanging fruit" in science, I got excited. Simple projects that seem to be straightforward – seemingly untouched by other scientists. Projects you could pluck right off the tree and bite into, reaping the succulent fruity juice of success. In three months it would be wrapped up. An easy publication.

The United States has no shortage of good ideas. Biotech breakthroughs are still born here. They still spin out of our national labs, our university incubators, our startup accelerators, and the brains of some truly ridiculous graduate students with wild hair and whiteboards covered in dreams. But too often, those good ideas don’t go anywhere. They stall in a regulatory maze. They fail to raise capital. They never scale.

Vor zehn Jahren galt die ungarische Asylpolitik als Ausnahme von den europäischen Standards. Ungarn nutzte Ausnahmeregelungen und Notfallmaßnahmen, um Migrant:innen von seinem Territorium fernzuhalten und auf Nachbarstaaten umzuleiten.

I’ve been working on applying strict static typing to my Python package class-resolver and ran into an interesting way of using generics in combination with parameter specification variables (i.e., ParamSpecs). Normally, if you want to type annotate a function, you use the Callable, which works like the following: from collections.abc import Callable #: the [int] represents a function that takes in a single integer, #: and returns a single

This notebook is the result of a collaboration between myself, Dr. Jeremy E. Monat, and Dr. Phyo Phyo Zin. This is a hands-on tutorial that guides readers through implementing skeletal editing transformations using Python and RDKit, and Phyo Phyo focuses on the high-level principles and applications in the blog post How to Use Skeletal Editing in Drug Discovery: Key Benefits & Applications.

Funded by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF), our research project Pro OAR DE investigates current challenges in operating institutional repositories (IR) in Germany. Since completing our initial research phase—which included a systematic review and an interview study with IR managers at academic institutions—we have organized four networking forums since November 2024.
