Machine Learning for Toxicity Prediction Using Chemical Structures: Pillars for Success in the Real World
Machine learning (ML) is increasingly valuable for predicting molecular properties and toxicity in drug discovery. However, toxicity-related end points have always been challenging to evaluate experim...

A model evaluated 234 toxic and 596 non-toxic compounds using structural fingerprints and achieved an F1 score of 0.440; what could be wrong? Of course, one answer is that it’s a great model. What’s another possibility?

I don't think it's widely clear to the #RadiologyAI community just how poorly GPT-4V compares with the top report generation models on chest X-rays, like MedVersa or MAIRA-2. It's clear we need a way to track progress.

some atomic orbitals at the beach.  the d, p and s orbitals are all standing on the shore watching sadly as the d-z-squared orbitals play in the water.  the d-z-squared orbitals are using their doughnut shaped lobe as a flotation device.

My (I think funny) take on AlphaFold3 and equivariance: There are many versions of AF3 which may be better at different tasks — The one they publicly released is as diametrically opposite in terms of architecture (no equivariance, no frames, generative) to RosettaFold-AllAtom.

Multi panel comic. Skye and Jay observe a desolate expanse of social networks in their current state: bots, spam, scams… Throughout the page, the two take a boat away from the island, and land on a new island representing Bluesky. The tones are orange and purple. The following discussion ensues:

Panel 1: Skye: I think it’s time to leave Old Social. This keeps happening.

Panel 2: Skye: I have to start over again.

Panel 3: Skye: I'm tired.
