Updates July 2025 Minor changes but good news in that SureChEMBL 2.0  (bless 'em) now  appears to be updating in PubChem more often and just broke 30 million :) In turn, this brings the total CNER submissions up to 47.7 million and, more importantly, the corroborative intersect between the big three active submitters to 9.7 million up from 9.04 back in March :).

Acquisition of pathology whole-slide images (WSI) generates confidential patient metadata which must be handled appropriately for non-clinical purposes. Free software with multi-vendor support to remove identifying metadata from WSI is available but may be difficult to use by teams with varying information technology comfort. This post describes my design of a cross-platform file drag-and-drop interface to help resolve this challenge.

While this was not the primary hack project during the ELIXIR BioHackathon Europe last autumn, but I really like BioHackrXiv and I got the question if I could have a look at getting the ORCID logo in generated PDF. The ORCID was already in the YAML metadata of report markdown, so it sounded easy.

This week, I took some time out to read Elly Griffith’s most recent book, The Frozen People. I thought this sounded quite an interesting genre-fusing novel, welding together detective fiction and SF/time travel. Sure, it’s hardly the first to do so, but it sounded worth a read. I’d met the author a few years’ back through a mutual connection: Lesley Thompson, another British crime writer.

Background Sparked by highly publicised cases of scientific misconduct as well as the identification of issues surrounding questionable research practices and irreproducibility of research findings, a scandalization process ensued (Penders, 2024). This scandalization initially started around narratives of a crisis concerning the research (processes) in some psychological and biomedical (sub)disciplines.

** Poster in institute repository:** https://doi.org/10.34734/FZJ-2024-06811 Graphs are powerful tools for representing real-world objects and relations in numerous domains, such as bioinformatics, pattern recognition, and computer vision. However, quantifying their similarity or difference is crucial despite the computationally expensive execution.

Malgré la disponibilité de plus de 10’000 styles sur le dépôt officiel de Zotero, il se peut que l’on ne trouve pas exactement LE style qui réponde à 100% à nos besoins. L’objectif de ce billet est de fournir des conseils pratiques et méthodologiques d’ordre général à celles et ceux qui souhaiteraient se lancer dans l’adaptation, voire dans la création d’un style CSL.

Here we are most of the way through March and I’m just getting around to my first “weekly” recap. It’s been a busy month — I’m writing a few papers of my own which I’ll share here when they’re published, and I took some much needed R&R in Portugal where I traded my stack of research papers for some escapist sci-fi. But I’m back now and making my way through a deep backlog.

Next week, starting 31.05.2025, we will be one week in Hannover for the Hannover Messe. The Messe is quite famous (the. “world leading industryshow”) in the world of the manufacturing industry.
