Carina is brilliant, excited to see where this leads!
Carina is brilliant, excited to see where this leads!
Excited to announce mBER, our fully open AI tool for de novo design of epitope-specific antibodies. To validate, we ran the largest de novo antibody experiment to date: >1M designs tested against 145 targets, measuring >100M interactions. We found specific binders for nearly half…
💥 We're hiring our first research scientists for OpenAI for Science! As a reminder, our goal is to build the next great scientific instrument: an AI-powered platform that accelerates scientific discovery.
New in-depth blog post time: "Inside NVIDIA GPUs: Anatomy of high performance matmul kernels". If you want to deeply understand how one writes state of the art matmul kernels in CUDA read along. (Remember matmul is the single most important operation that transformers execute…
(1/8) We’re releasing an 8-GPU Llama-70B inference engine megakernel! Our megakernel supports arbitrary batch sizes, mixed prefill+decode, a paged KV cache, instruction pipelining, dynamic scheduling, interleaved communication, and more! On ShareGPT it’s 22% faster than SGLang.
Excited to share this work from my PhD! See our structure below of a computationally designed IL-21 mimic with anti-tumor efficacy in mice. A collaboration between the David Baker, Stephanie & Mike Dougan, Warren Leonard, and Chris Garcia labs.

Super excited to share what we’ve been working on in collaboration with @SynBioGaoLab over the past few months on de novo antibody design. Check out this great thread by our team lead @santimillef highlighting the technical aspects of the pipeline!

Thrilled to share that today we report our human protein interactome in @ScienceMagazine! Predicting which pairs of proteins in the human proteome is a great challenge due to the shallow eukaryotic evolutionary signals but hugely important to understand. science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…
Some very clever engineering by @ntperry13 and team!

Calling Bay Area math enthusiasts interested in weekly sessions doing rigorous foundational mathematics the modern way - with computer-verified proofs in Lean. (An experiment in rigorous math education outside traditional academia) course info - docs.google.com/document/d/1bC……
We sought to make proteins both potent and FAST. We used #proteindesign to design precise control over protein interaction lifetimes, enabling us to construct rapid-response circuits, biosensors, and switchable cytokines. Now published @Nature! Links to paper and tutorial below.
Entering my PhD, de novo antibody design was a grand challenge I thought would not be solved without huge increases in affinity data and Ab-Ag structure. Only 2 years later, we provide the first open-source recipe to get antibody binders, almost magically, out of a computer (1/3)

Today, we report Germinal, a method for efficient de novo antibody design, with @santimillef and @SynBioGaoLab. Germinal achieves success rates of 4-22% across diverse epitopes. We make the work fully open, without doing lame things like posting a preprint without methods. 🧵
This work would not have been possible without every single member of our amazing team: @_jnwang & @talaldotpdb for building the pipeline, @driscoll_cl @haoyu_dai_dhy @Xiaowei0402 for designing + rocking the wet lab experiments, and @SynBioGaoLab & @BrianHie for support +…
The ability to design antibodies against any protein of interest has major implications for medicine, biotech, and basic science. Today, we introduce Germinal, a pipeline for epitope-targeted de novo antibody design achieving 4–22% success rates with efficient experimental…
What’s the deal with all these science competitions? Me for @TheScientistLLC big thanks to @genophoria @yusufroohani @abhinadduri @MartinBJensen for speaking with me! the-scientist.com/how-science-co…
We are excited to share GPN-Star, a cost-effective, biologically grounded genomic language modeling framework that achieves state-of-the-art performance across a wide range of variant effect prediction tasks relevant to human genetics. biorxiv.org/content/10.110… (1/n)
Very excited to share our paper "De novo Design of All-atom Biomolecular Interactions with RFdiffusion3", now on BioRXiv. biorxiv.org/content/10.110… 1/n
We previously built programmable RNA sensors based on editing by housekeeping ADAR enzymes. But they can't sense arbitrary sequences due to design constraints (analogous to PAM for CRISPR). With our new "modulADAR", we overcome that constraint by leveraging ADAR's modularity.
