Antibody design may be just about to leave its “spray‑and‑pray" era. Chai‑2 reports ~50% de‑novo hits incl. sub‑nM. IgGM, Germinal, PXDesign join the push. Mosaic + AIntibody/BenchBB makes it testable. The bottleneck seems to be clean affinity data.

Welcome to the age of generative genome design! In 1977, Sanger et al. sequenced the first genome—of phage ΦX174. Today, led by @samuelhking, we report the first AI-generated genomes. Using ΦX174 as a template, we made novel, high-fitness phages with genome language models. 🧵

Asimov Press party // September 30 // Boston // Asimov HQ There will be trivia. There will be winners (and losers). And there will be prizes. Come celebrate, answer questions, and show everyone how much esoteric biology stuff you know. Hope to see you there!

AI is not on track to eradicate disease in our lifetime. Scientists need to generate more data, but they’re physically limited by how fast they can work. That’s why we’re launching Medra: Physical AI in the lab, doing and optimizing real experiments. Thread👇

We don’t need to simulate the subcellular physico-chemical properties of cells. We need to model biology that will help us cure disease in patients. That means cell biology in the context of tissues and patients.

Quantum computing could revolutionize phylogenetic inference! Imagine reconstructing evolutionary histories from massive genomics datasets in minutes, not months. Quantum algorithms + life's complexity would equal unprecedented insights into biology🧬

Success in academia means becoming a PI and “leaving the bench” PhDs are trained in this culture. Actual lab work is for junior mentees. Important people don’t do that So naturally biologists in industry scramble to leave the bench and biotech is bloated with middle managers
