Last year we presented #AlphaFold v2 which predicts 3D structures of proteins down to atomic accuracy. Today we’re proud to share the methods in @Nature w/open source code. Excited to see the research this enables. More very soon! bit.ly/alphafoldmetho… bit.ly/alphafoldgithub
I never imagined I'd be involved in something like this when I started playing with machine learning and computational science 13 years ago. The perseverance and creativity and camaraderie of the team over the last couple yrs has been incredible to experience. Couldn't be prouder
How portable are popular ML software frameworks? 🚚 Our recent cross-institutional collaboration reveals how costly straying from a narrow set of hardware-software combinations can be. 📜 arxiv.org/pdf/2309.07181…
I’ve started reading this marvelous new book by Tristan Needham. It’s passionate and filled with geometrical insight, just like his earlier masterpiece VISUAL COMPLEX ANALYSIS. press.princeton.edu/books/hardcove…
Today with @emblebi, we're launching the #AlphaFold Protein Structure Database, which offers the most complete and accurate picture of the human proteome, doubling humanity’s accumulated knowledge of high-accuracy human protein structures - for free: dpmd.ai/alphafolddb 1/
In a major scientific breakthrough, the latest version of #AlphaFold has been recognised as a solution to one of biology's grand challenges - the “protein folding problem”. It was validated today at #CASP14, the biennial Critical Assessment of protein Structure Prediction (1/3)
