This is the real Turing test if you think about it
Two days ago, GPT-6 Astra broke a yet unsolved German Army Enigma message from 1941. Amazingly Astra was able to autonomously:
- Search historical archives
- Compare uncertain letters
- Find contextual clues
- Build an Enigma simulator
- Write cryptanalysis code
- Run parallel experiments
- Test competing keys
- Recover the plaintext
- Cross-check the results

I am proud to share our paper using two complementary approaches to resolve variants of uncertain significance (VUS) in the gene TSC2. VUS are a barrier to achieving a precise genetic diagnosis for tuberous sclerosis complex and some cancers. 1/14 nature.com/articles/s41467-0…

Today, we share a breakthrough on the planar unit distance problem, a famous open question first posed by Paul Erdős in 1946.
For nearly 80 years, mathematicians believed the best possible solutions looked roughly like square grids.
An OpenAI model has now disproved that belief, discovering an entirely new family of constructions that performs better.
This marks the first time AI has autonomously solved a prominent open problem central to a field of mathematics.

A nice editorial about our recent SCN5A automated patch clamp paper. @ChaiAnn_Ng @VandenbergJamie academic.oup.com/eurheartj/a…

Biobank data shows SCN5A variant carriers have longer baseline QTc and greater sensitivity to QT-prolonging drugs. Findings support ancestry-informed pharmacogenetic risk stratification ahajrnls.org/3Yryv6e
Excited to share our preprint: Mapping the Functional Landscape of KCNQ1 to Define Ion Channel Mechanisms and Arrhythmia Risk! We performed ~50,000 experimental measurements of KCNQ1 variants.

📝 Excited to share our latest work, now out at European Heart Journal! We studied 252 SCN5A variants previously found in patients with Brugada Syndrome, an inherited arrhythmia disorder linked to sudden cardiac death. [1/4]

New preprint! We measured temperature- and pH-induced aggregation for over 18,000 natural and de novo designed protein domains!

Variants with severe loss-of-function had ~25% penetrance & 501x increased odds of BrS. Normal-function variants had lower risk. This work stratifies SCN5A variants into low-risk vs high-risk categories, aiding diagnosis & management for patients & families. [3/4]
This was a collaborative project led by @mjoneill95 and @joanne_gjm and co-supervised by me, @VandenbergJamie, and @ChaiAnn_Ng. Link: academic.oup.com/eurheartj/a… [4/4]
