Been filming Chad Stevens and his Schaerbeek orchard in Jamul for a year. Thursday Nov 6 at O'Brien's, his kriek finally goes public. If you're curious what we've been documenting, come taste it.
A new #SanDiego #brewery devoted to producing lambic-style #beer & preserving a rare breed of cherry tree will make its debut at @OBriensPubSD on the eve of @SDBeerWeek. Get to know them here. | bit.ly/sdbn251103 #sdbeernews #sdbeer #craftbeer #sdbeerweek #lyonspeakbrewing

Congrats to the whole team! Great job in developing an efficient and well-documented implementation of the multiple co-inertia analysis (MCIA) as a @Bioconductor package. This will be highly useful in this era of multi-modal data. Thank you @a_konstorum for leading this effort!
I'm thrilled to share our new #Bioconductor package, nipalsMCIA, which performs multi-omic dimensionality reduction using the NIPALS algorithm. It is fast (especially for large datasets), and user friendly. Give it a try! biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/… (1/4)
