Excited to share our short review of De novo molecular design and generative models published in Drug Discovery Today! sciencedirect.com/science/ar… #pharmatech #drugdiscovery #ArtificialIntelligence #ML #RealTimeChem

Structure or sequence – how should we represent proteins? This question has long challenged SOTA protein property prediction. Read our new post to get our take and meet Boltz-2-PPI, a minimal adaptation of Boltz for predicting protein–protein affinity 🧬👇

Off to #NeurIPS2024 next week where we are presenting our approach to diffusion sampling for generalised protein inpainting problems such as floating motif scaffolding and sequence editing. Drop by the AIDrugX Workshop or drop me a message if you're interested! @syntenyAI

How do healthy tissues evolve to become cancerous? Delighted to share our latest research tracking the somatic evolution that occurs in the decades before AML. 👇Implications for early detection and early interception. biorxiv.org/cgi/content/shor…

Not an ML expert, but want to understand AlphaFold3 (AF3)?
I wrote a simple-to-understand AF3 field guide and sprinkled my opinions in along the way.
The full essay is linked at the END of the thread.
Here's a TL;DR 🧵
Joshua Box retweeted
New blog post alert! 🚨
I write about AlphaFold3, how it works, where it works well ✅ (and where we think it might not ❌) and what it means to the TechBio landscape more broadly (if you decide to believe me). 🧬

OpenFold paper is now out in @naturemethods. Timely. I’ll say more about AF3 at the end of this thread, but first I wanted to highlight what’s new since our initial release. (1/9)

We’re really happy to share our preprint demonstrating the atomically-accurate design of single-domain antibodies (VHHs) with RFdiffusion!
Our fragment-based molecular generator, FragGT has been published with code. Had a lot of fun with this while on my year out. Thanks to @nathanbroon and @benevolent_ai for supporting open source science #guacamol

here is sora, our video generation model:

today we are starting red-teaming and offering access to a limited number of creators.
@_tim_brooks @billpeeb @model_mechanic are really incredible; amazing work by them and the team.
remarkable moment.

some NeurIPS highlights:
LDM tutorial was great. the 1st part is a must-watch, the 2nd part is full of references for recent advancements, and you need to check the 3rd part if you're planning to use LDMs for something other than images/videos.

Ever since the invention of the car cities have been changing, and in the 1930s people like Norman Bel Geddes predicted exactly what would come to pass: cities designed for cars rather than people.
A feeling captured rather well by this cartoon...

New! We’ve just put up a note evaluating the latest, in-development version of AlphaFold (“AlphaFold-latest”). This is a preview - development is still in progress - but performance across a wide range of tasks is striking.

In 1938, Julian Layton was in Vienna helping to extract Jews from Austria – then the architect of the Final Solution rang.
