How come there are so many classes that are "computational/CS for biologists" but I can't find any that are "wet lab biology for CS people"?

If Keir Starmer votes against the SNP motion for an immediate ceasefire because we are rightly calling out the collective punishment of the people of Gaza, he will not be forgiven. How many children have to die for Labour to do the right thing and support an immediate ceasefire.
UPDATE I understand Keir Starmer will order his MPs to vote against the SNP’s motion calling for a Gaza ceasefire for the reason I explain below (he hates the SNP’s charge that Israel is engaging in the collective punishment of Palestinians). He knows many of his MPs will rebel against this three-line whip. The stakes will be highest for members of his frontbench team, because they would be sacked if they vote in opposition to his instructions

Good. Much better idea. May all schools do this
Email from my boys’ school about World Book Day. Because of the cost of living “instead of coming to school in costume, we are having a ‘Get Comfy and Read’ day”. Home clothes and something comfy. I love it! The MONEY the parents will save and the WASTE that will be avoided

Last chance to apply for our fully-funded PhD studentship. Lots of scope for a mix of computational and experimental work to suit what you want to get out of the project. Training, travel, and a chance to have a real impact on cancer

I am thrilled to see this paper as a pre-print. One of the leading papers of my PhD Seeing is believing! As a researcher, it's essential to take the time to observe and understand what's happening in disease instead of going straight into the mechanism. biorxiv.org/cgi/content/shor…

The grievances of the Palestinian people cannot justify the horrific attacks by Hamas. Those horrendous attacks cannot justify the collective punishment of the Palestinian people.
