Oh wow. so many congrats to @demishassabis and colleagues for the Nobel Prize in Chemistry!.
Huge congratulations to @DemisHassabis and John Jumper on being awarded the 2024 Nobel Prize in Chemistry for protein structure prediction with #AlphaFold, along with David Baker for computational protein design. This is a monumental achievement for AI, for computational.
