While sick, we tend to look for our symptoms on Google. Can we use these data to track COVID-19 spread? How media influence the number of Google searches? Our new paper is out! #nivlab #huji #COVID19 #tasteloss #lossofsmell

CASP14 #s just came out and they’re astounding—DeepMind looks to have solved protein structure prediction. Median GDT_TS went from 68.5 (CASP13) to 92.4!!!! Cf. their 2nd best CASP13 struct scored 92.8 (out of 100). Median RMSD is 2.1Å. I think it's over predictioncenter.org/casp14/zscores…
