Cancer doesn’t develop in isolation—and neither should our science. This London conference invites us to rethink cancer through the lens of host–tumour interactions, unlocking new therapeutic possibilities by considering the whole individual. linkedin.com/feed/update/ur…

Excited to unveil Boltz-2, our new model capable not only of predicting structures but also binding affinities! Boltz-2 is the first AI model to approach the performance of FEP simulations while being more than 1000x faster! All open-sourced under MIT license! A thread… 🤗🚀

Move over AlphaFold3. Boltz-2 has arrived, bringing affinity prediction for protein-small molecule interactions! Can’t wait to see what this group does next. It was a pleasure writing this piece. Thanks to @BarzilayRegina & @jeremyWohlwend, and congratulations to all involved!
Cancer Grand Challenges@CancerGrand

Today, @BarzilayRegina’s group @MIT released Boltz-2. With accuracy rivalling AlphaFold3, the updated model can now predict small molecule-protein binding affinity. Crucially, Boltz-2 is open source. Read more: bit.ly/4kY1gki
