According to dynamical systems, psychiatric disorders can be seen as energy landscapes with peaks and valleys. OCD has deep valleys where neural activity gets stuck, while schizophrenia has shallow valleys that let neural activity roam too freely, connecting unrelated ideas.

Beyond her acting, Hedy Lamarr co-invented an early version of frequency-hopping spread spectrum communication, a technology that laid the groundwork for modern Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. She developed this with composer George Antheil during World War II as a means to prevent the…

Hi! I'm hiring a Research Engineer to join my team at Google DeepMind for the year. You'd be working with a great, interdisciplinary team on AI evals. Please share if you know anyone who might be interested! boards.greenhouse.io/deepmind/jobs/… Note: this is a fixed-term, 12 month position

Would you prefer to lead a lab alone or together with a science buddy? How interesting would be a research institute where joint labs are the standard?!

This video shows a giant virus (called a Mimivirus) killing an amoeba. The virus (which looks slightly yellow), moves through the cell's cytoplasm. In the amoeba's final moments, all of its organelles slow down...then freeze... ...and then the cell ruptures. Cool.

Thrilled to have delivered my first 80-minute lecture to @EPrinceton's first-year PhD students on in situ/operando 3D neutron and X-ray imaging diagnostics for energy storage devices (Li-ion and solid-state batteries)! #teaching #fundamentals #3Dimaging #electrochemistry

Lastly, check out this wonderful video that the talented Kelly Reeve put together to showcase how EVOLVEpro works. We hope this explainer is helpful and inspires folks to go and evolve some proteins!


Paul Lourdu Xavier Reposted

EVOLVEpro, our general AI model for protein engineering, is now out in Science! We show the ability to design and evolve dozens of unique proteins to have up to 500 times more activity or function using a combination of LLMs and regression models. 🧵👇 science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

After showing that AF2 can be used to design very large proteins by performing #RSO, I am happy to share another fun project we did: the #af2cycler @sokrypton @hendrik_dietz biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
