@sergiosdhi.bsky.social takes to the #ESSB2025 stage to demonstrate TopROI, a new mathematical tool for preserving structure when dividing large point clouds into multiple regions of interest! #EMBLSpatialBiology

Great to see some exciting applications of #MuSpAn in action in @pathologop.bsky.social's talk at #ESSB2025 today!

Come and say hi if you'd like to find out more about the software, or to have a chat about how MuSpAn might be able to help with your data analysis :) #EMBLSpatialBiology

Lots of opportunities to chat about #MuSpAn at #ESSB2025 this week!

In the Wednesday poster session go find Josh at p151, and come and talk to me at p58 on Thursday!

Looking forward to a busy week of spatial biology at EMBL. If you’re at #ESSB2025 and interested spatial analysis and/or its use for identifying drug response, come find me at p151 (helix b)

Haha, excellent - let's go for that then and I'll try to work out where it is before tomorrow morning 😂

Joshua Bull @joshuabull.bsky.social · 1d

To be honest I haven't worked out the geography with the helixes yet - shall we try at the bottom of the helix where the coffee is? Or is that non-unique? 😅

Hahaha, I think this picture makes it look particularly small too...I think maybe half this slide is blank XD

Perfect! Will grab a cuppa and meet you up by the posters somewhere?

Joshua Bull @joshuabull.bsky.social · 1d

Definitely! I think I'm officially presenting mine on Thursday evening (#58), but I'm happy to sneak off in a coffee break before then if you'd like a sneak peak? I think @josh-moore.bsky.social is presenting some MuSpAn applications at his poster on Wednesday evening (not sure of the number though)

We're exploring spatial biology at multiple scales here today - the auditorium is huge, but the powerpoint presentation is several orders of magnitude smaller

Just pulling into Heidelberg for #EMBLSpatialBiology #ESSB2025... Really looking forward to meeting more of the #SpatialBiology community this week!

If you want to chat with a friendly mathematician, do say hi if you see me wandering around, or drop me a message on here and we can coordinate :)

I am entirely blaming the @oxfordmathematics.bsky.social social media team for getting me to do this beautiful beautiful video 😂🎷

What's it like round here? What are the people like? What do they do when they are not doing maths? Do they have fun?

Lovely to have a talk on home turf from the great @mathcancer.bsky.social, presenting some of his developments around a grammar for developing agent based models!

If that sounds interesting, check out the paper here:

I have to admit that if I'm wearing my Garmin then I don't bother with this conversion...instead I now spend most of the time trying to work out my average pace based on how many cumulative seconds over/under target pace I've been each kilometre 😆
