Open Science (OS) is a movement that aims to bring about a change to the academic publishing system. Yet, despite being around for over 30 years, it has had relatively limited success.

This is the second of a two-part post about encoding databases as ontologies. In the first part, I gave a background on how I started working on this problem and the software stack I developed along the way. In this post, I explain the philosophy and design about how I encoded the HGNC (HUGO Gene Nomenclature Committee) database as an ontology using PyOBO.
This is the first of a two-part post about encoding databases as ontologies. In this post, I give a background on the problems in biocuration that led me to start encoding databases as ontologies, the software I have written to do it, and the repository I have created to store the resulting artifacts in a FAIR, open, and sustainable way.

We want to introduce a new, work-in-progress book on spatial data visualization in R using the tmap package. The current version of the book, titled Spatial Data Visualization with tmap: A Practical Guide to Thematic Mapping in R , is available online at https://tmap.geocompx.org/. This blog post provides an overview of the book, its current status, and how you can get involved in its development.
A few days ago I got a sensationally stupid email from one of those websites that most of us probably have a subscription to, but which I will not give the oxygen of publicity by linking to[1]. The subject line was: Your paper “NEURAL SPINE BIFURCATION…” is now an analogy. No; no, it’s not.
Our lab is growing! In our Three Questions series, we’re profiling each of our members and the amazing work they’re doing.
