(1/4) Excited to introduce ProCyon: a multimodal foundation model to model, generate, and predict protein phenotypes, led by stellar @oq_35 @YepHuang Robert Calef @valegiunca 👉 biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/… ProCyon is an 11B parameter multimodal model that integrates protein sequences, structures, and natural language ProCyon models, predicts, and generates phenotypes with zero-shot task transfer, breaking past the limits of fixed vocabularies or ontologies 🔬 The Challenge: Predicting protein structure is advanced, but predicting protein phenotypes—observable traits linking molecular function to biology—is still an open problem. 40% of human proteins lack context-specific insights, while 20% remain almost entirely uncharacterized
