Hybrid explicit-latent flows are the new foundation models for protein structures. La-Proteina shows that one network can design 800-residue, all-atom structures and sequences, then perform well at motif scaffolding. Read more: nvda.ws/4nOjBSL

In collaboration with Schrödinger, we present DualBind trained on ToxBench 📚 8,770 ERα AB-FEP predicted complexes (RMSE ≈ 1 kcal mol⁻¹). At last, ML has the signal to learn true binding physics - DualBind already hits r = 0.84 without shortcuts. How could this reshape

reprogramming cells with transcription factors is our most expressive tool for engineering cell state traditionally, we found TFs by ~guesswork ICML Conference we're sharing NewLimit's SOTA AI models that can design reprogramming payloads by building on molecular foundation models

Yes. Writing is not a second thing that happens after thinking. The act of writing is an act of thinking. Writing *is* thinking. Students, academics, and anyone else who outsources their writing to LLMs will find their screens full of words and their minds emptied of thought.

The biggest challenge for AI in biology isn't just models, it's the data used to train them. Standard biological data isn't built for AI. To unlock generative AI for drug discovery, we must rethink how we generate and capture data. 1/

Evo 2 update: new dependency versions (torch, transformer engine, flash attn) and a docker option mean it should be easy to setup without needing to compile locally. Happy ATGC-ing! github.com/ArcInstitute/e…

Excited to host Pranam Chatterjee next week for our career scientist series(which his prev student Leo Zang helped start when he joined the ML4PE team💪🏼)Getting to see the lab’s work the past yr at Duke, I am confident they are up to cool things in the field, ya won’t wanna miss this✨
