If any1 wants to try my very unpolished and unfinished TUI plasmid editor in its very pre-alpha form, I reserved a slot on the ol pip bandwagon. Just type in:

pip install splicecraft

and I recommend runnin this often to update:

pip install --upgrade splicecraft

It's a WIP 💚

I'm happy to present our new tool, EpiCure, a napari plugin to ease correction of segmentation and tracking of epithelia movies, developed in @devstempasteur.bsky.social

Friday fun with:

pyapp-kit.github.io/ndv/latest/

pymmcore-plus.github.io/ome-writers/

github.com/zeiss-micros...

- run an acquisition in ZEN
- capture the pixel stream via ZEN API
- write it directly to an OME-ZARR using ome-writers
- display it in the NDV viewer.

Also works with @napari.org 😉

Really cogent and informative, thanks for sharing. I’m out of the game now, but still found it interesting and valuable for possible documentation and workshop efforts.

Creating a Podcast Using Generative Artificial Intelligence to Support Student Learning of Organic Reaction Mechanisms A podcast was created by Google NotebookLM artificial intelligence and applied to support learning in a Year 1 university organic chemistry course. The Generative AI (GenAI) was trained using an open ...

It may be controversial, but my new paper explores the use of AI to produce a podcast to support student learning. It reflects on the pros & cons, and collects student feedback providing rich insight into their attitudes to AI.
