Researchers with @NilsWalterLab have developed an AI model that discovers unique molecule behaviors in fluorescence microscopy. The model could soon be scaled to follow particles, wild animals or even the trajectory of asteroids through our solar system.

In @ScienceMagazine - great collaborative work w/ @AlbertW_Lab & @RappsilberLab showing that bacterial RNA polymerase can thread nascent mRNA into the pioneering ribosome from two sides for higher translation initiation efficiency - target for antibiotics? https://t.co/r6jLzkFjOO
