Premed Clinical Jobs

Hello! I am a transfer student to Vanderbilt this fall and I am currently looking for clinical jobs, such as patient care tech and I am wondering where I should look at. I already reached out to VUMC career opportunities and they don't have positions open and they all require license or graduate program degree. I am a pre med student and I would love to get some advice if possible! Thank you!

Transfer Housing Advice

Hi everyone!

I'm a transfer student coming to Vanderbilt this fall, and I recently got approved for off-campus housing. Now I'm debating whether it's the right decision.

I've heard that living on campus can make it much easier to make new friends and get involved in campus events. On the other hand, I'm pre-med, and one of the main reasons I applied for off-campus housing was because I thought it would give me a better space and freedom to focus on my studying and other stuff.

I also applied for a single on-campus room, still waiting.

I'd really appreciate hearing from other transfer students or anyone who has experienced both on-campus and off-campus living. Thank you!

DEGs of Clusters

Hello guys! I am a student who recently got into bioinformatics and doing a small project! I am trying to do DEGs of >4 clusters and rank genes by logFC and perform GSEA with Hallmark pathways but I am not sure where to start. If there are any good resources or advice, I would really appreciate it! Thank you!

How to lower the numbers of clusters and find the best parameters (Spatial Transcriptomics)

Hi bioinformatics experts!

I am doing a project but i am struggling with finding parameters to lower the numbers of clusters. I am trying different parameters such as lowering resolution, lambda, and k_geom.

I tried a total of three so far and they all look similar so I decided to make this post to get some ideas of how i can lower the numbers of clusters and make it clear.

Trial1: K_geom 30 and resolution = 0.5
Trial 2: K_geom 30 and resolution = 0.1

Trial3: K_geom10 and resolution = 0.5

Parameters I was told to adjust:

Before running BANKSY, there are two important model parameters that users should consider:

  • k_geom : Local neighborhood size. Larger values will yield larger domains
  • lambda : Influence of the neighborhood. Larger values yield more spatially coherent domains

I ended up having 44 clusters and I would love to get some insights!

Thank you!
