🚨New paper on theories of ageing I discuss the major mechanistic theories of ageing in light of recent findings as well as the fundamental nature of the ageing process. Theoretical work is more important than ever in biology, including in ageing. nature.com/articles/s4155…

New OpenProblems paper out! 📝 Led by Malte Lücken with Smita Krishnaswamy, we present openproblems.bio – a community-driven platform benchmarking single-cell analysis methods. Excited about transparent, evolving best practices for the field! 🔗 nature.com/articles/s4158…

🤝Excited to announce Biomni × Anthropic! AI agents are set to transform how biologists do everyday research. Thanks to this partnership, the platform is now free for scientists worldwide: biomni.stanford.edu Learn more: anthropic.com/customers/biom…

why don’t we have more medicines? inventing medicines has grown less efficient, limited by our knowledge of biological targets for the 1st time, AI & genomics have the potential to make this knowledge abundant – one of the largest potential impacts of the intelligence age.

Thrilled to collaborate with Mathew Garnett @Sanger and Parse Biosciences on the new Cancer Plasticity Atlas – a hugely exciting single cell genomics resource to decode tumor adaptation and resistance. 🔗 helmholtz-munich.de/en/newsroom/ne… #CancerAI #Plasticity #Atlas

I'm thrilled to share our new study out in Nature Medicine! We show that a blood test can estimate how aged or youthful one’s organs are and that these organ ages predict future disease and lifespan. Final paper from my PhD in the Tony Wyss-Coray lab. 🧵1/12 🔗 nature.com/articles/s4159…

🧬 Excited to open-source Biomni! With just a few lines of code, you can now automate biomedical research with AI agent! We are releasing Biomni A1 (agent) + E1 (env) with 150 specialized tools, 59 databases, and 105 software. E1 is our first attempt at curating the bio-agent

Grok 4 (Thinking) achieves new SOTA on ARC-AGI-2 with 15.9% This nearly doubles the previous commercial SOTA and tops the current Kaggle competition SOTA
