AI is everywhere in biology right now, but how do these models actually hold up once they hit the lab? Our latest review on generative AI for enzyme design cuts through the hype to see what’s actually working in the lab🧪 ⬇️LINK

It's long seemed that molecular biology is a natural home for ML interpretability research, given the maturity of human-constructed models of biological mechanisms—permitting direct comparison with their ML-derived counterparts—unlike vision and NLP. Our first foray below👇.

Great talk from Laia Montes Espuna at the @crg.eu PhD Symposium! Her work is focused on cell type diversity in early metazoans, aiming at broadening the understanding of cell type identity programs across the animal kingdom 🪸🧬 #CRGPhDSymp2024

Navigating the #CRGPhDSymp2024 poster session, I’m slowly becoming an expert at nodding thoughtfully while frantically trying to understand someone’s life work in 3 minutes!
