Valence Labs @valenceai.bsky.social · 17/04/2026LLMs are strong at reasoning over unstructured text. But in biology, that reasoning is hard to verify. In our new preprint, we propose a framework for generating structured, falsifiable biological hypotheses from perturbation data. arxiv.org/abs/2604.11661 100
Valence Labs @valenceai.bsky.social · 16/04/2026To realize our vision of better and more effective drug discovery, we must turn predictions into testable hypotheses and experimental designs. Dive into the Explain pillar of our Virtual Cell framework: why it matters and how we adapt LLM reasoning to biology. open.substack.com/pub/valencel... 000

Valence Labs @valenceai.bsky.social · 14/04/2026Traditional MD requires long simulations in which interesting events are dominated by irrelevant dynamics. MarS-FM is our generative model that rethinks protein simulation by learning the transitions between biological states, achieving a 600x speedup. open.substack.com/pub/valencel... 100
Valence Labs @valenceai.bsky.social · 08/04/2026We're excited to announce that MarS-FM has been accepted at ICLR! We propose a new class of generative models that learn to sample state transitions of biomolecular systems, reproducing the statistics of Molecular Dynamics (MD) with drastic speedups. arxiv.org/abs/2509.24779 110
