In anticipation of the upcoming Applied Bioinformatics in Life Sciences conference, we had the pleasure of sitting down with two experts. The first is Alex Botzki, head of the Technology Training unit at VIB and driving force behind the conference. The second is Amelie Stein, an invited speaker who leads a lab at the University of Copenhagen. Both share insights into their work, hot topics in the field, collaboration, and their vision for the future of bioinformatics.

VIB Bioimaging experts address the difficulties of reproducibility by turning metadata redundancy into an error correction tool, with a little help from AI. 

Lessons from space communication and AI tackle the reproducibility crisis  

One of the core principles of the scientific method is the validation of results. To achieve this, scientists would ideally run their tests or experiments again to see whether the results the first time weren't a coincidence. Even better would be if other scientists could independently validate the results. That way, we can rule out that there are specific (lab) conditions that skew the results. The independent replication of scientific results is the strongest clue we have that a finding reveals something true about reality.
