@jontycorrin one question - why?

someone just reached out cold on linkedin and left me a voice note only. i feel violated.

@alexrives Wowza!

Together with UC Berkeley we are announcing the laser phase plate - a breakthrough in atomic resolution imaging. This is the brightest continuous wave laser in the world, 100 million times the intensity of the surface of the sun. Phase contrast plays an important role in microscopy, but it was thought close to impossible for electron microscopy, where it would require interfering with an electron beam. Holger Mueller and Robert Glaeser proposed exactly this using a standing wave laser. It has taken over 15 years to make this a reality. Biohub partnered with UC Berkeley and Mueller to support this work and to engineer and build the technology. Contrast has been the critical barrier to achieving atomic resolution imaging of the cell. In cryo-electron tomography, a cellular imaging technology that uses electron microscopy, the low contrast makes it impossible to resolve anything but the largest proteins within their cellular context. The laser phase plate removes that barrier. With advances in AI this breakthrough in contrast will start to open up a new frontier in structural biology, that will allow us to see the molecular machines of the cell, and how they assemble into far more complex and dynamic systems, and understand how they work.

@buergelt_ this event should be the only reason to show up at BIO

We're hosting a small private event at BIO San Diego Only 20 spots in total Join @viswacolluru, @Jack_O_Meara and me to discuss AI, bio/acc and clinical timeline compression First event in a new series - very few spots left this time, rsvp below

@shelbynewsad @CompoundVC @Basecamp_Res @NOETIK_ai @recursus What a line-up! Sad to miss 😢 You rock @shelbynewsad 💃

We @CompoundVC are showcasing the frontier of bioML with folks pushing the ambition, tasks, datasets, and context possible. We have an all-star lineup : - @Basecamp_Res Phil Lorenz on building a database of 1M new species and 10B novel genes - @NOETIK_ai @recursus building the earth's largest multimodal tumor dataset - @BrianHie's @aditimerch building de novo genes from a genomic language model - @PossuHuangLab @ginaelnesr's building net new enzymes with novel active sites - GxL and @james_y_zou's researcher Kevin Wu will be presenting on massive context gains through adding all arxiv and pubmed papers - @KortemmeLab's Dru Myerscough on their incredible work on protein dynamics - @WUFang40615703 on giving reasoning abilities to protein language models We have a couple more seats for those also building at the frontier. luma.com/uhz3r8wt

@zhang_isaruihan sooo pumped for this! 🚀

brought to you by @AnthropicAI @joinplutohouse @ARIA_research @fiftyyears @daphnivc @awscloud @redalpine @boltz_bio @WuXi_AppTec

@novaholdings created one of the most meaningful annals of history to shape the next decade of world-changing talent. no words.

@AdamDraper @BoostVC curious what you are seeing in the bio - super powers category? currently looking for a general super-immunity as vitamin C has clearly failed me 🤒

Just a reminder: @BoostVC is bio-obsessed as far as investing. We have 82 active Bio investments and want to get to 1,000. - bio- defense - bio- super powers - bio- cures We invest first checks $500k. Engineer + Scientist teams seem to create the most momentum.

So proud of everything you built, my dear friend! How far you've come since we sat in my living room looking through your (very first?) deck? Onwards and upwards! 🦄

@byersblake @foundersfund @ThriveCapital @Greenoaks @QuietCapital Massive! Can’t wait to see your ground-breaking therapy in the clinic

The aging research will continue. Thank you @foundersfund for leading, @ThriveCapital, @Greenoaks and @QuietCapital for joining and all our insiders for coming back.

@shelbynewsad @mariah__nel I got lucky, the pain was sharp but didn’t last long. Sadly, I also heard a few cases where women were left with chronic pain - definitely not researched and talked about enough!

@mariah__nel yesss - I had lidocaine, took ibuprofen before and was still terribly painful.

Surprising how little the pain of IUD insertion is talked about — or how $2 of pills for cervix softening could materially improve the experience for women who haven’t previously had a vaginal birth. IMO should be the standard of care to offer that or lidocaine

@AnthropicAI is bringing big IPO energy these days!

@AnthropicAI feeling big IPO energy in the room 👀

NEW: $3M in Fast Grants for AI-driven life sciences research. We’re funding pilot projects in AI diagnostics, prediction, and personalized therapeutics — with a two-week review turnaround. 35 grants · $25K–$100K · Deadline: June 15 Please share! biswasfamilyfoundation.org/science/fast-g…

can we just agree that now that @AnthropicAI snagged @karpathy, the referees should officially call it a clear win in the AI race?

If you're a naturally anxious person, I recommend pursuing a high stress career path where at least you'll be compensated for anxiety you're going to have anyways.

@ycombinator’s latest RFS seems to have one of the highest shares of bio/ag startups I’ve seen - but is it just me, or does most of it feel a bit behind the curve?
