Many new machine learning tools for protein engineering have popped up in the last year. In these early days, it might be unclear how to actually use them for real molecular design tasks in industry. We demonstrate how to engineer a cholesterol drug and plastic degrading…

To commandeer a saying from @ilyasut… Everything that sounds like it should work does work and if it doesn’t that just means you don’t understand a detail yet.


This is a significantly larger problem in biochemical experimentation. Human's choice of only publishing what makes a good story hurts models. We need to give models both the "positive" and "negative" data.

Terence Tao is spot on, AI models need more data on failure and what doesn’t work

Riding in a Waymo the last time I was in SF is easily my favourite AI product experience so far. I think other industries, including biopharma, have a lot to learn from the successful build-up and roll-out of self-driving vehicles. We write about four transferable lessons here

In a world of Snowflake, Databricks, and LLMs… scientists still love to use spreadsheets. I’m talking about multi-tab, multi-colored spreadsheets with merged cells and plate layouts. While these are useful when recording experimental data or planning the next experiment, they…

A good test for any structure prediction model is its predictive accuracy for novel entrants to the PDB. I just ran Chai-1 on structure 9CBK released yesterday on the PDB (and importantly not yet included in the training set for Chai-1). 🖥️🧬 Chai-1 predicted 9CBK's…

Renegade, the first on-chain dark pool, is live on Arbitrum. Fully-private trading with zero MEV, slippage, or price impact. Dark pools account for nearly half of the TradFi market, and Renegade unlocks dark pools for DeFi — renegade.fi Here's how Renegade works 🧵


The sweet spot is going to be bigger small molecules (macrocycles, protacs, glues) and smaller peptides (glp1, etc). Drug discovery is going to experience a renaissance here. The training data is there, the therapeutic benefit is there, and the cost/supply is there. Underhyped.

As small molecule drugs become larger, biologics become smaller, and peptide therapeutics gain adoption, how will it act as a forcing function for new representations in ML applied to molecular design? Do we default to atoms/electrons vis-a-vis neural network potentials? Does…
