Abseits des medialen Fokus auf andere globale Krisen zählt die venezolanische Fluchtbewegung zu den größten der Gegenwart – fast 8 Millionen Menschen (mehr als 25% der gesamten venezolanischen Bevölkerung) haben in den letzten zehn Jahren ihr Heimatland verlassen.
Recently, Kelsey Piper shared that o3 (at time of writing, one of the latest reasoning models from OpenAI) could guess where outdoor images were taken with almost perfect accuracy.

If you are into running, chances are that you will be chasing your PB (personal best) times. This post is about using R to search for your PBs, and to monitor them over time. Usually runners target four distances for PBs: 5 km, 10 km, half marathon and full marathon. It’s likely that a PB will come in a race of exactly that distance, but not necessarily. For example, you can hit a 5K PB during a 10K race.
The story of American innovation has always hinged on a singular question: When the moment comes, will we move with intention, or hesitate until it’s too late? On April 8th, 2025, the National Security Commission on Emerging Biotechnology (NSCEB) dropped its final report. A 195-page beast of a document. Dense, detailed, and urgent. The kind of thing Washington usually takes months to digest, if it bothers to read it at all. But this time?
This week’s recap highlights polars-bio for fast and scalable and out-of-core operations on large genomic interval datasets, combining DNA and protein alignments to improve genome annotation with LiftOn, feature selection methods for scRNA-seq, STRkit for read-level genotyping of short tandem repeats using long reads and single-nucleotide variation, and nf-core/detaxizer for decontamination of human sequences in metagenomics data.
Today I released a new version of the commonmeta-py Python library with major improvements in Crossref DOI registration, including refactoring to use the Python marshmallow library, XML schema validation, and API calls to Crossref and InvenioRDM instances via the commonmeta-py command-line interface.Using the marshmallow library Marshmallow is a popular Python library for converting complex objects to and from simple Python datatypes.
Why rethinking PhD trajectories matters now In the last few years, we have witnessed a growing interplay between the Open Science (OS) movement and the reform of research assessment through global initiatives such as CoARA. In the Netherlands, national efforts like Recognition &
For my very first blog post on this platform, I got inspired by the name of the blog support system itself— Ghost . It made me reflect on a phenomenon that many early-career researchers quietly experience: ghost and ghosted authorship in scientific publications. Let’s plot the scene: You’re a PhD student or a young postdoc, and your manuscript is finally ready for submission.
