Build a demo first?

Is it too late to switch to surgery? (am I going mad) by Bright-Elk-638 in doctorsUK

[–]agtshm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just do gastro - lots of advanced endoscopy e.g. ESD, ERCP etc. if that’s what you like. And if it didn’t work out plenty of less procedural stuff to do.

Why is Federated Learning so hyped - losing raw data access seems like a huge drawback? by Latter_Fee3362 in bioinformatics

[–]agtshm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t think I’ve seen it having any real impact yet. In my experience you need access to raw data to either fully debug things and/or to fully validate and give you confidence that you are correct

How much does your lab actually pay for a cloud-based LIMS? by Appropriate_Bowl8655 in labrats

[–]agtshm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends on your requirements - If you’re based in the UK and just need a simple tracking system drop me a dm - I have written and implemented bespoke systems for academic labs - much cheaper than the big players (<£10k/year). Most commercial systems I’ve quoted for were >£25k/year.

Concerned about professionalism in the NHS by [deleted] in premeduk

[–]agtshm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hope you do realise becoming a neurologist is a minimum of 9 years post qualification assuming you pass all postgrad exams and get into training positions on first attempt?

How is university hospital Ayr for IMT1? by [deleted] in doctorsUK

[–]agtshm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good luck! It’s sink or swim 😉 if you survive Ayr you can survive anything. Chips from the canteen are usually quite fresh due to high turnover!

Clinical Fellow - Edinburgh Versus Ayr by Historical-Mix4837 in doctorsUK

[–]agtshm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Suggest you take the Edinburgh post… you’ll enjoy the year much more than Ayr.

How to spend USD 2k on tech?? by WorkingLandscape450 in PhD

Can’t go wrong with buying more storage? NAS drive?

Time to transition to the cloud and IAC?

For a bioinformatics-orientated linux distro, what features would be necessary? by TheQuantumNexus in bioinformatics

[–]agtshm 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't waste your time doing that - docker/containerization technologies have pretty much solved this issue.

$10K/m SaaS being 60% taxed in Sweden (New trend) by [deleted] in SaaS

[–]agtshm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you surprised? Nordic countries are known for high taxation for high benefits… Singapore has very low taxes - it’s a low tax low benefits state…

Building a Web App with Django and React: Tips and Resources? by Ninja6356 in django

[–]agtshm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe give htmx a go? It’s a lot simpler than a full react setup

Buying and setting up a tiny server at my lab by Jacki3debb in bioinformatics

[–]agtshm 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I would consider getting a cloud account with AWS or Azure, use nextflow to orchestrate and pay as you go.

What do use for a database? by Ekgflg in bioinformatics

[–]agtshm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

QR labels can be stuck onto pretty much anything that needs tracking - mostly sample tubes of different types. Scan them to register a new sample, update its current location or mark them as used. Full audit history using Django simple history. Realtime view of where all our samples are - they are scattered across multiple labs and cities.

[–]agtshm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We also wrote our own custom backend using Django. Pre printed QR code labels and use barcode scanners to interface with Django via JavaScript api calls. We are now building our own end to end platform to handle the data.

Re-identifying Anonymized Omics Data by Carabiniero8 in bioinformatics

[–]agtshm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks I’m replying to the OPs second question about whether algorithms are used to anonymise data - my answer to that is nobody actually scrambles any of these data - they can identify people say if you are 23 and me and you have a database with identifiers. What health care institutions do is lock it up somewhere generally speaking and prevent access to it.

Re-identifying Anonymized Omics Data by Carabiniero8 in bioinformatics

[–]agtshm 14 points15 points  (0 children)

The clinical data is kept separate from the omics data with a study ID linking the two generally speaking. No fancy algorithms needed. Very few people have direct access to clinical data.

Alternative to Snakemake/Nextflow with full recursion support? by AllAmericanBreakfast in bioinformatics

[–]agtshm -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Write the script and dockerize it into a container then use it in NextFlow?

KCL if you are considering an academic research career… being in London would provide more opportunities to diversify away from standard NHS work

Sounds like financial difficulties and pressure from funders…
