BREAKING NEWS The 2024 #NobelPrize in Physiology or Medicine has been awarded to Victor Ambros and Gary Ruvkun for the discovery of microRNA and its role in post-transcriptional gene regulation.

BREAKING NEWS The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences has decided to award the 2024 #NobelPrize in Physics to John J. Hopfield and Geoffrey E. Hinton “for foundational discoveries and inventions that enable machine learning with artificial neural networks.”

Newly awarded laureate John Hopfield shares the physics prize with Geoffrey Hinton “for foundational discoveries and inventions that enable machine learning with artificial neural networks.” Read his full biography: bit.ly/4ezBPTc

The 2024 #NobelPrize laureates in chemistry Demis Hassabis and John Jumper have successfully utilised artificial intelligence to predict the structure of almost all known proteins. In 2020, Hassabis and Jumper presented an AI model called AlphaFold2. With its help, they have

Again AI/ML Dancing with Protein predictions.

Congratulations to my all time HeRo 💚

Fall is proof that change is beautiful.
