- If you are working with #JuliaLang in health, medicine, or biomedical research, consider submitting an abstract to the 🩺 Health Mini-Symposium at JuliaCon 2026 (10–15 August 2026, Mainz, Germany). @thecedarprince.bsky.social
- Blog post explaining how I drew the Julia logo using spins and an MRI scanner! 🪄🧲 #JuliaLang #MRI cncastillo.github.io/BlochHole/po...
- Go @cncastillo.bsky.social! Love the work of KomaMRI.jl -- currently the bleeding edge of Magnetic Resonance Imaging work! For those in medical #imaging, please check out the package! 🤯 juliahealth.org/KomaMRI.jl/s... #julialang #opensource
- Oh just saw this, thanks for the kind words! 😄
- Omg! The official JuliaCon account posted about my talk! 😱 Shout-out to @thecedarprince.bsky.social for organising the JuliaHealth mini-symposium and totally carrying it by giving 4 talks!!! The slides for the talk are available here: github.com/cncastillo/K...

- I think it would be very nice if this supported monorepo's, where there are many packages in the same repo. It is a huge pain to identify which package to update and in which order. I am sure people from SciML would be very happy. Maybe @chrisrackauckas.bsky.social has ideas.
- JuliaCall is blowing my mind 🤯, running GPU-accelerated #JuliaLang code from Python was insanely easy!
- Big fan of the Journal of Open Source Software! It's awesome that the whole review process occurs publicly on GitHub 😊
- JOSS has now published more than 3,000 articles, and I've personally edited 60 of them (still editing +5). Being a part of JOSS has been one of the most fulfilling experiences of my life. @joss-openjournals.bsky.social #JOSS
- My MRI simulation paper was among the top 10% most read in Magnetic Resonance in Medicine 🤩! #JuliaLang
- My first impressions of #Stanford: Wow! What a lovely campus. I’m not sure if this could even be considered winter. Pretty excited 😊!
- Just gave a two-day #JuiaLang workshop, and the fastest and the most improved code (after some performance tips) won a mug. People can get really competitive when you put a leaderboard on screen😜.

- I haven't seen that one! Niiice!! Pretty much the same analogy haha
- The materials for the workshop (some based on the incredible work by Carsten Bauer) and videos (in Spanish) will be uploaded here: github.com/LIBREhub/Adv...
- I also made this drawing to explain multiple dispatch #JuliaLang 😁
- This was all done automatically generated when they created a PR to this repo with their code github.com/cncastillo/p...

- Maybe not highly accurate, but I like this image. There's also a giftedness corner, that increases masking abilities. In that case people can be twice (2e: gifted+autism) or thrice (3e:gifted+autism+adhd) exceptional :), any convex combination in that space really.

- Woow! Amazing thanks!! 😁
- Pretty cool! I think it should skip typing "julia>", "pkg>", and "help>". Are you planning to support syntax highlight?
- Wow! KomaMRI.jl was mentioned in a talk at MRI Together by Charles McGrath, where he discussed CMRsim, another fantastic open-source MRI simulator! Could this be the publicity we need to cross 1k downloads? (Currently at 993🙉) github.com/JuliaHealth/... #JuliaLang #MRI #OpenSource
- We made it!!! 1k downloads 🥳🥳🥳🥳
- Nothing better than replicating previous results but 200x faster using #JuliaLang 😎 Columns: 1987, 2018, 2024 (ours)
- For the curious: this is the magnetization of flowing spins after a slice-selctive RF pulse from Yuan C, et al. (1987)
- Also don't mind the cm/2 instead of cm/s 😂
