Just stumbled across this memo sent around the math department of Johns Hopkins when I was there in 1997. Only in the math department!
Ridiculously good intro to cellular biology. Phenomenal visuals, clear explanations. I have all new bioinformatics postdocs read it. amazon.com/Cell-Visual-To…

The Cell: A Visual Tour of the Building Block of Life
The cell is the basic building block of life. In its 3.5 billion years on the planet, it has proven to be a powerhouse, spreading life first throughout the seas, then across land, developing the rich...
The wrong way to test that something is not differentially expressed is to do a T-Test (or any kind of two sample test) and get a p-value that's greater than 0.05. If you look out for it you'll see people making this mistake every day.
Really enjoyed this book. I'm now convinced, anybody who thinks we're going to colonize space anytime soon is dreaming. Probably not in our lifetimes, unless lifespan is massively extended. amazon.com/gp/product/198…
Please don't say "begs the question" it does not mean what you think it means and makes you sound uneducated. The proper term is "raises the question". Don't be fooled by the popularity of this bad usage, you don't want to be one of them.
You really shouldn't use Comic Sans font in a presentation. This video explains: youtube.com/watch?v=GUCcOb…
Genetics Department went all out for the Kadesch prize. Congrats to Rina Kim for a great presentation.
We had the pleasure of teaching undergrad computational biology last semester (UPenn/BIOL4536). If anybody's interested, we put together this page with the class content: Lectures, Exams, HW, Student Evals, etc. bioinf.itmat.upenn.edu/teaching/biol4…
If you have any interest in human evolution, Fossil Men is one of the best books I've ever read on any topic. amazon.com/Fossil-Men-Old…

Another truly remarkable book that changed how I view the world. "An Immense World: How Animal Senses Reveal the Hidden Realms Around Us" by Ed Yong. Time well spent. amazon.com/gp/product/059…

An Immense World: How Animal Senses Reveal the Hidden Realms Around Us
The Earth teems with sights and textures, sounds and vibrations, smells and tastes, electric and magnetic fields. But every kind of animal, including humans, is enclosed within its own unique sensory...
This one is perhaps the best popular science book I've read in years. "She Has Her Mother's Laugh by Carl Zimmer". amazon.com/She-Has-Her-Mo…
The last *seven* packages I mailed by USPS overnight express did not arrive on time. The last one I mailed a full week ago and it finally arrived today - six days late. Meanwhile Priority mail (domestic) always arrives in 2 to 3 days no matter what the destination. Sheesh...
The journal PRJFGS asked me to submit an article for peer review that they plan on publishing January 20th, which is two days from now. Talk about revealing your hand as a predatory publisher.
I'd like to make you aware of this amazing web based tool for circadian analysis that our team has built called Nitecap (nitecap.org). Visualize 30K expression time-courses with ease. Run many circadian analyses with the push of a button. Imagine a slider bar with…
