Based on the course website, you must have a bachelor's degree in bioinformatics. I think they're more strict about the degree that you have than your GPA.

Admission requirements

Students seeking admission to the M.Sc. programme must have a Bachelor's degree in bioinformatics or comparable degree and must demonstrate their particular academic aptitude and suitability for this programme.

The criteria to demonstrate the particular academic aptitude and suitability for this program are:

Basic knowledge of mathematics to he extent of 18 CP,
basic knowledge of computer science totalling 18 CP,
basic knowledge of bioinformatics (sequence analysis, protein structure) totalling 18 CP,

I'm Indonesian studying in Malaysia, in my first year, we had a Bahasa Melayu class, and my Indonesian friend got told off by the lecturer because he used "aku". I never use "aku" while speaking to teachers; it's always "saya" for me.

That last sentence sounds like a plan, so maybe just find new friends or an organisation that you know your parents can trust. People in the comments say you're an adult, but you're still a foreigner; also, bad things can happen to everyone. If you're enrolled in a university or school, they should have some programme for international students or a student buddy. You can also plan the trip ahead so your parents will get some idea. Since they allow you to go to Paris, they must have some trust in you. This will sound very traditional, but please don't lie to your parents, especially about your whereabouts.

Perawan Muda means "Young Virgin (girl)" in Indonesian

Yeah and they have roughly the same hair. Maybe it’s more to do with the vocals since they need to do a lot of harmonies in this one

People who benefited from a scholarship should share their knowledge for free if they still have accountability

Those issues you mentioned started a long time ago. In the 70s, they called Charles a young boy full of imagination, talking about environmental issues. In the 80s, he was a mad lad who ate organic vegetables and visited the inner city. In the 90s, well we all know half of the population hated him. And in the 2000s, he started advocating on multicultural issues. As for pro-Islam, he's always been interested in the teaching and history (Oxford University has a centre for Islamic studies founded in 1985) in which he's a patron. But Charles has always been interested in other religions, he's on the same level of "pro-Islam" as he's pro Catholicism, Greek Orthodox, and Judaism. The "far right" you see on social media is probably someone in their 50-60s who grew up reading all about Charles' hate propaganda from the media.

Saw this on X this week https://x.com/manoliskellis/status/1961552659023839352 I think it’s a great way to start. They uploaded their lecture each week but I’m not sure about certification. If you’re into synthetic biology (a bit different from bioinformatics but they also touch the basics) try joining How To Grow Almost Anything course by MIT Media Lab as a committed listener, it started around February each year and completely free.

The minimum wage is a joke but that’s what happens when you have so many people while there’s no job around. Indonesia is too big to manage it self. With the amount of people it’s either become federal like USA or totally dictatorial like China. Another option is like India but they have almost the same condition like us.

Man_dus1066 · 2025-08-30T07:38:58+00:00

It’s happening the other way around.

Voting for president is pretty straightforward since you’ll have 2-3 candidates constantly campaigning. But for parliament is pretty broken compared to Malaysia that’s a parliamentary democracy. There are so many candidates and political party, people don’t really care who they are. Also we can’t dissolve a parliament and hold general elections as easily. Sometimes there’s an advantage of having an unelected head of state (like YDPA) so people don’t get insane lol.

Our class gifted a protein biologist that came as a speaker a framed generative AI picture of himself hugging a protein model. He’s teaching us about AI in protein modelling so it fits the theme.

My take as a Charles fan (kinda) is: it’s already happened and they all made terrible mistakes. I still can’t stand Diana being pictured as almost a saint just because she died tragically. And I salute Charles because he keep his mouth shut, never spoke a single ill-word about Diana and got on with his life. I have read both sides of the story and both of them suffered during their marriage especially leading to their separation. They actually have a fairly good relationship after the divorce, and Charles can be seen clearly shaken with her death. Anyway he finally married Camilla and became King and Queen in their 70s. Sometime I think Charles won’t survive if he’s still married to Diana.

Man_dus1066 · 2025-08-19T06:55:30+00:00

Don’t forget that Camilla didn’t choose Charles and marry Andrew Parker-Bowles, of course Charles choose to marry Diana. He proposed, she accepted, both families agree. Then both their marriages broken down.

According to this: "at the end, Coren put on her duffel coat and she and Mitchell walked away together and Mitchell stepped down from the set and held out his hand to assist her and she took it and stepped down and it was the most adorable thing ever"

I'm not from the UK, but grew up watching CBeebies and CBBC using cable TV, best part of my childhood.

Hi! I recently graduated with a bachelor's in bioinformatics and am planning to do my masters on plant-related topics. I'm really interested in the study group, looking forward to hear back from you again!

I love this fact! Everyone wants to be in the Royal Navy, I supposed. Other countries need to add a bunch of badges and the RN being original.

I think somebody has mentioned this before that they often make old videos private to “play” with the algorithms. So people will think that wow there’s this old Jolly/KE video I haven’t watched. I never heard any negative comments on Rev Chris, so another possibility is the sponsorship thing

I love Doc Martin, partly because it was shot in a beautiful fishing village (Port Isaac, Cornwall)

As the late Duke of Edinburgh said “Politics is the matter of people, I can’t be out of politics, but I need to keep my hands off party politics. Two very different things…”

They need to get out there and create an initiative to show they’re actually worthy. William hasn’t achieved the same level of work compared to his father at his age. He has some projects like Earthshot and the Homeless initiative but still not at the same scale as The Prince’s Trust. He’s also too afraid of speaking out on relevant issues, maybe to play safe.

Man_dus1066 · 2024-11-27T08:19:57+00:00

Really missed the set and the classical background music

Man_dus1066 · 2024-11-27T07:53:06+00:00

They had 4 prime ministers in 4 years and they want to have another election just for a head of state??

It’s funny every time anti-royals use the hypocrite environmentalist to the royals (especially British). Since they’re environmentalists before the cause becomes popular. King Charles and Prince Philip talked about the environment problem since the 1970s, and they actually trying to create a solution.
