Inspired by both the need to hire someone and this nice aesthetic for job descriptions from b.next, I recently created a minimal LaTeX template for formatting job descriptions. The template hopefully provides a clean, professional, minimalistic layout that someone else could use.
You can view the full template here.
The template is organized into several key sections:
Here’s the minimal LaTeX code to create this template:
\documentclass[11pt,a4paper]{article}
\usepackage[margin=1in]{geometry}
\usepackage{titlesec}
\usepackage{enumitem}
\usepackage{hyperref}
\usepackage[dvipsnames]{xcolor}
\usepackage{tikz}
\usepackage{tikzpagenodes}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage{transparent}

\definecolor{lightbeige}{RGB}{245, 245, 220}
% Set page color and text color

\color{black}
% Define custom section style

% Adjust hyperlink color
\hypersetup{

These authors would write this paper, and I mean that in the good way. We have Andy Fire, who is famous for a deeply thoughtful career in RNA biology. We have Ami Bhatt: a world-class researcher who leads a group that generates and interprets micro-biome sequencing data. We also have the participation of Robert C. Edgar on the paper — he is, as far as I am aware, the only “independent researcher” in biology that is respected. His open-source software MUSCLES its way into many a phylogenetic analysis. Plus I like his style:

I’m writing a cover letter for my final paper from my PhD. I couldn’t find a latex template so I made one myself. I hope it can be useful to others.

In this little project, I wanted to try out the Dalle API along with some very simple python functions for combination generation and plotting to create a semi-random collage of Dalle edits of American Gothic. I had a good time using the Dalle API and the davinci text API to put together a remixed collage of American Gothic. While coding this up, I used chatGPT to help with the plotting, which added a meta layer to the experience. Next up, I’ll play with the whisper model from OpenAI.

I wanted to understand if LLM / PLMs can be useful for analyzing antibody sequence data. Antibodies are proteins made by the immune system which are critical for protection against viruses. Here I used antibody sequencing data, AbLang (Antibody LLM), and single-cell rna sequencing data investigate.

Read moreBy sampling B cells from multiple hard-to-study organs within the same individual, Ivana Cvijovic and I generated the first systems-level perspective of the human antibody system. Most immune-monitoring efforts focus on the peripheral blood because it is non-invasive. Our study compares as many as 5 organs per donor, which allows systematic insights into the dynamics of long-term antibody memory in Humans and informs non-invasive immune monitoring.
Key findings:
This study investigates how cells integrate external signals with their intrinsic state during reprogramming, using human B cells as a model system.

Key findings:
These results have important implications for cell-based therapies and tissue engineering. Intrinsic heterogeneity in the input cells should be understood and harnessed for better outcomes.

As a key contributor to the Tabula Sapiens Consortium, I’ve helped create a multi-organ, single-cell transcriptomic atlas of humans. This atlas serves as a valuable resource for training foundation models of biology and understanding the molecular basis of diseases.
