We just made NovoMolGen easy to play with: Transformers-native checkpoints on the Hub and small notebooks that let you load, sample, and fine-tune in minutes. The few lines of code that load the model, plug in a reward, run a short RL finetune, and plot the curve.

๐ Excited to see my PhD research published in @NatureComms! Grateful to my supervisor @Himanshu_IITM, the incredible Systems Genetics Lab @iitmadras @IBSE_IITM @iitmbt and collaborators Suresh Sudarsan & Shannara @DTUBiosustain for making this possible.
Thrilled to share our new paper in @NatureComms! โInteraction of Genetic Variants Activates Latent Metabolic Pathways in Yeastโ Led by PhD student @srijithbt with @DTUBiosustain collaborators Suresh Sudarsan & Shannara Taylor Parkins.๐ https://t.co/8XBQNRiirZ 1/5

Check out our latest work in developing open-source foundation models for de novo drug design. Stay tuned for the accompanying blog post and starter notebook. @iitmbt @WSAI_IITM @IBSE_IITM @iitmadras
Molecules speak in atoms and bonds. LLMs can learn that language. Even with SOTA #denovo design, our largest molecular LLM study finds a plot twist: early saturation, weak scaling, and proxy metrics that mislead on real tasks! Led by @kchitsaz and @roshan_msb ๐งต More in thread:
