Wie gelingt die Reform der Forschungsbewertung hin zu mehr qualitativen und transparenten Verfahren? Mit dem Zusammenschluss in der „Coalition for Advancing Research Assessment“ – kurz: CoARA – versuchen mehr als 700 Wissenschaftsorganisationen, eine Verbesserung der Forschungsbewertung zu erreichen. Zusammen mit der UB an der Freien Universität Berlin hat das OABB kürzlich ein Empfehlungspapier publiziert.

tl;dr: Here’s a how-to for adding some “AI”-poison to your static site that’s hosted on Codeberg Pages (or GitHub Pages ). I’d appreciate some feedback on if this is useful/how it could be improved. If you’re running any type of website in 2025, you’ll likely be suffering from the impact of generative “AI”. Be that “AI”-generated spam posted to your site, crawlers bringing your server(s) down or just having

What is this, two blogposts in one day? My buddy Andrew Wang and I compiled this list of flow battery and related companies over the last few years, now making it public in the hopes of potentially integrating it with FBRC one day. I will try to keep this updated as other companies emerge and existing ones go out of business, new suppliers show up, etc. It’s just a csv.

Last week I was making some final revisions to a paper where we used a neat conjoint experiment to test the effect of a bunch of different treatments on nonprofit donor preference. One of the peer reviewers asked us to compare the characteristics of our experimental sample with the general population so that we could speak a little to the experiment’s generalizability.

With a year of preparation and two years of thinking, on September 1st 2024 the Department of Bioinformatics, aka BiGCaT, merged with two other departments to form the Department of Translational Genomics (see also this LinkedIn announcement). This merger creates many new opportunities while it strenghtens our bioinformatics research.

Jessie Atterholt and I are helping one of our students write up a pathological dinosaur bone (you’ll definitely hear more about this in time), and we needed a good example paper for our student to use as a model. We chose several, but for me the standout was Scott et al. (2015), and that’s the one I’m focusing on here.

I wish I could say I remember the first citation to one of my research articles. I do not. But I do remember the excitement to see why someone was citing my research. What I do remember is that I got a comment around the same time along the lines of this: “why would anyone cite your article if they can download the results for free?” (about open science cheminformatics research). Other times.

I’ve been blogging about genetics, statistics, computational biology, data science, and science in general for over 15 years. I published my first blog post on Getting Genetics Done in 2009, and started this blog last year after taking a few years off. Science blogging has significantly contributed to my personal and professional growth as a scientist. Writing takes time and effort — time I could have spent elsewhere.
