My new post is out 🧬.If you're not paying attention to the DNA sequencing landscape, you should be. Illumina's 80%+ market share is finally facing some highly innovative challengers. The next frontier emerges: from how do we read DNA to how will we interpret all of this new data

La-Proteina sounds like a new fashion house. elevating foundational generative protein models to serve backbone and side chains all at once. this is structural protein couture.
Hybrid explicit-latent flows are the new foundation models for protein structures. La-Proteina shows that one network can design 800-residue, all-atom structures and sequences, then perform well at motif scaffolding. Read more:

This is your annual reminder that we are facing a major antimicrobial resistance crisis. Tuberculosis is once again the leading cause of death from a single infectious agent after being temporarily displaced by covid19. The innovation need is urgent.

Maybe there isn’t a funding/talent gap. Maybe there’s a creativity gap. We can’t keep saying “not enough people are working on X space”. What if a lot of people are working on it & it’s still not thattt great?. The gap = creativity. Be an entrepreneur tackling the creativity gap.

I read a study about a planetary scale Argentine ant supercolony stretched across North America, Europe, Asia, Hawaii, New Zealand & Australia . when distant ants met, they recognized & accepted each other as one. imagine humans practicing this kind of cross border social unity

Still thinking about 125 million bioluminescent algae, glowing in living couture, draped across a dancer’s body, a flowing vision that painted the dark Paris runway with light that breathes. Again: the overlooked innovation frontier for biology is where it intersects with art

3 things I love here:. Open source. Programmable protein design. And BAGEL(s) ofc.
🚨 Excited to share the first major project of my PhD: BAGEL, a modular, model-agnostic, fully customizable Python framework for programmable protein design 🧬🥯.Code (BAGEL) 💻: Code (boileroom) ⚙️: Preprint 📜:

I was today years old when I learned Sir Peter Jackson, director of Lord of The Rings franchise, has one of the largest private moa bone collections . And is now putting in 15 million to fund their de-extinction with Colossal! . Is this…bespoke luxury bioengineering.
NEW PROJECT: We’re working to bring back the South Island giant moa, one of the largest birds to walk the Earth. Gone for 600 years, its legacy still echoes. From ancient DNA to artificial eggs, this project could reshape the future of bird conservation.

We need weather report-like, regular public health broadcasts. —I’m only finding out now, in July about a new highly transmissible widespread Covid strain that was first detected in airport screening programs in March. Social implementation needs to advance with surveillance tech.
