If the last few months have taught us anything, it’s that advancing AI in the life sciences requires more than just smarter algorithms. It’s about seamlessly integrating those models with the actual tools and daily workflows that scientists rely on.

It's amazing to see how much Nextflow has grown!
When I joined Seqera in 2022, there were multiple places around the world who barely had anyone who had ever run Nextflow. It's a totally different scenario in 2026, and it's so nice to have been on board during this trip! 🤩

When Nextflow was first released, the goal was simple: make scientific workflows reproducible and scalable for everyone. 📈 Nextflow is the gold standard for bioinformatics, bringing control and traceability to the volume and velocity of science.

When conducting peer reviews, I increasingly think about the time & workload demands of my suggestions.
If there's a flaw that needs correcting, then it needs requesting.
But if I just have a preference, something that I think would 'improve the paper', then do I really need to request it?
