Pancreatic Cancer and Glioblastoma are together two of the most lethal cancers. This is not hype - it’s reality. We should be investing more on research in these diseases. Not “zeroing out” the funds. Trying to understand the rationale here.

This is the worst feature that Apple has ever launched.

Do not underestimate the size of the brain drain - 75% of Scientists polled consider leaving - huge opportunity for other countries to take the lead - a terrinle unforced error by the US government nature.com/articles/d4158…

Lots of opinions that can not be verified. What is true? It is completely normal (unfortunately) to present with de novo metastatic prostate cancer. Anyone on either side claiming that is not the case has no idea what they are talking about.

Flash Invariant Point Attention １．FlashIPA introduces a linear-scaling reformulation of Invariant Point Attention (IPA), a core algorithm in protein and RNA structure modeling. It achieves SE(3)-invariant geometry-aware attention with dramatically reduced memory and runtime,

Geometric deep learning meets hardware-efficiency with FlashIPA. Our team turned the quadratic complexity of invariant point attention into linear. For cheaper and faster training on biomolecular structures. And most importantly: to train on previously unattainable sizes of

Serious requests for both ChatGPT and Claude teams: Take network failures much more seriously, and write to a scratch area that allows retries to work off of prior work. It feels like catastrophic data loss when a given response comes back and fails half way, and then the next

Most old world countries have very little public land at all. The few preserves that remain are cobbled together from the hunting grounds of old kings. They live smaller, poorer, lives, and have to pretend to find majesty in fields and hedgerows. Don't let that happen here.

Our lab's funding was terminated—here’s how that compares to the amount of all terminated research at Harvard Medical School nytimes.com/interactive/20…
