Thoughts on learning to "fail fast" in research. When you have a new idea, and the project is worthwhile only if P, then you need to check P first, not last. Examples: 1. You can only establish causality with a certain kind of data. 🧵

As I struggled to deal with the impact of COVID on my family members in India, I got delayed by a day for submitting my reviews for a conference & I got a message from a senior reviewer with the blurb below. My humble request to everyone - pls don't say this to anyone ever! [1/n]

An awesome example of how using NLP techniques with evolutionary sequences can let you model genetic variation of proteins (without alignments!) and design novel nanobodies!! I worked on this back in college in with the wonderful Debora Marks lab- cool to see it published now :)

Excited to share my first paper from my PhD research in Chris Garcia's lab! We determined structures of the IL-21 receptor complex and engineered IL-21 variants that enhanced vaccine responses in tonsil organoids with reduced autoantibody induction. (1/9) cell.com/cell-reports/f…

I recently spoke with Rob Wiblin 80,000 Hours about Anthropic’s Responsible Scaling Policy for safely developing AI systems. I particularly enjoyed discussing the trade-offs of RSPs, and how safety-conscious researchers might want to consider them when working on AI capabilities.
