There should be a holiday (once a year) where everybody takes all the papers that they meant to read (but never will) and burn them together (there’ll be food, singing and costumes too)

Last year we presented #AlphaFold v2 which predicts 3D structures of proteins down to atomic accuracy. Today we’re proud to share the methods in nature w/open source code. Excited to see the research this enables. More very soon! bit.ly/alphafoldmetho… bit.ly/alphafoldgithub

The #AlphaFold source code has been updated and now accounts for multi-chain protein complexes - providing a significant improvement in accuracy for predicting protein interactions: dpmd.ai/af-multimer-os Generate predictions from your browser via: dpmd.ai/alphafold-colab
