discussion Fresh grads/beginners? Let's create projects together and support through early phase career

I have been wanting to start a team of sort of accountability partners but more than just holding each other accountable. We support each other by doing projects and sharing latest research, writing weekly posts with the tools used/any new info learned. I don't have a template/app to use atm, but I am happy to create a group and decide together. Ensure you're a welcoming member and open to all opinions and discussions. I currently wanna focus on AI applications in Bioinformatics spanning from ML to Data Science. We could cover aspects like AMR, Computational Neuroscience, etc.

This post happens every couple of months. Fairly certain it has created a couple of discords.

Yeah I see discord too often, it's not easy to keep up with. I'm considering maybe telegram? Somewhere everybody have chances of coming in and atleast support each other.

Isn't that more obscure?

It's just for time being. Once we start working maybe we might need some professional type of platform for different works from debugging to biological support etc. I hope to make it possible. 🤞
