Organized and sponsored by @Genentech. Submission deadline: July 22, 2026. Get started → github.com/Genentech/BioR… Three Kaggle leaderboards: A: kaggle.com/competitions/m… B: kaggle.com/competitions/m… C: kaggle.com/competitions/m…

Three tracks, three research questions: A. Prompt-only: find the best prompt for a fixed GPT-OSS-120B model B. Agentic: multi-agent + tool calls, same fixed LLM C. Fine-tuning: any open model <10B params (SFT, LoRA, RL, ...) Submit to one or all.

Can LLMs and agents do real biology, or just talk about it? We're launching the BioReasoning Challenge 2026 at MLGenX @ #ICLR2026: an open competition asking whether language models can predict the outcome of a real perturbation experiment. genentech.github.io/BioReasoningCh…

At @COLM_conf this week, check out our paper (presented by @CarlEdwards_NLP) on LLM-based drug synergy hypothesis generation. Predicting synergistic combination therapies given specific tumor information, and generating/retrieving drugs optimized to synergize in the context of specific patients. With novel forms of in-context learning, graph-based context optimization, and drug design task formulation via retrieval.
