A new site, Uniker.nl, has been announced as a resource for building unikernels in OCaml. The announcement surfaced on the OCaml community forum, where developer dinosaure shared the project. Unikernels are specialised, single-purpose operating systems compiled directly with an application, and OCaml has an active ecosystem around them via tools like MirageOS. The project has drawn modest early attention from functional programming enthusiasts interested in lightweight, secure system design.

Researchers have introduced FishMitoCleaner, a tool designed to streamline quality control of mitochondrial coding sequences, particularly in fish genomic datasets. The software aims to reduce manual curation when checking mitochondrial DNA annotations for errors. Coverage so far is limited to a single science news outlet, and details about the developers, methods, or publication venue have not been widely reported.
