This is insane. New AI model from Samsung, 10,000x smaller than DeepSeek and Gemini 2.5 Pro just beat them on ARC-AGI 1 and 2 Samsung’s Tiny Recursive Model (TRM) is about 10,000x smaller than typical LLMs yet smarter because it thinks recursively instead of just predicting
My brain broke when I read this paper. A tiny 7 Million parameter model just beat DeepSeek-R1, Gemini 2.5 pro, and o3-mini at reasoning on both ARG-AGI 1 and ARC-AGI 2. It's called Tiny Recursive Model (TRM) from Samsung. How can a model 10,000x smaller be smarter? Here's how

I am thrilled to release ProteinDJ: a high-performance and modular protein design pipeline. Our open-source workflow incorporates #RFdiffusion, #ProteinMPNN, #FAMPNN, #AlphaFold2 and #Boltz-2. It is a fast, free, and fun way to design proteins (1/5) https://t.co/IOlC0JKvOL

Excited to share Caliby 🐈, our new model for structure-conditioned sequence design! Caliby is a Potts model-based sequence design method that can condition on structural ensembles. We use this to average out non-structural signal (e.g. evolutionary bias) learned by models 🧵1/N

AlphaFoldDB updated, now includes the MSAs 🥳
We’re renewing our collaboration with @GoogleDeepMind! We'll keep developing the AlphaFold Database to support protein science worldwide 🎉 To mark the moment we’ve synchronised the database with UniProtKB release 2025_03 https://t.co/VTzPuEUC1r

👏 Amazing work! I think there is still much to learn about SRBD1, not only in mitosis but in other possible functions it may have👀 Full article:
Excited to share our latest publication in Cell Reports where we reveal the critical role of SRBD1 in mitotic chromosome segregation. Read more here: https://t.co/zmATM6xaVE A big thanks to all our wonderful collaborators - This wouldn't have been possible without you!

Really glad to contribute to this work from the @TassosPerrakis group at @NKI_nl, in which we try to understand how the Autotaxin "tunnel" is crucial for ATX/LPA signaling and dictates specific cellular response, published in @CellChemBiol. Check it out 👇 https://t.co/d0tJVBn3FY

Working on a figure for my seminar today made me realize just how many design styles you can create with ChimeraX! 🤔Is everyone familiar with the full range of styles in ChimeraX? ‼️ By the way, the toughest choice (and always will be) is picking the right colors!
