America's AI Plan calls for significant investment in AI-enabled science wrote @ElementoLab incl creation of automated, cloud-enabled labs 4 biology, chemistry, & materials science. "This vision of AI-driven robotics executing experiments is aimed at shortening discovery…

Thoughts on America's AI Plan by @WCMEnglanderIPM Director & computational biomedicine expert @ElementoLab: highlights data as a national strategic asset, proposing the creation of world-class, AI-ready scientific datasets. This will be supported by incentivizing researchers to…

I am very excited to share our publication, out now in Nature, detailing our developed CRAFTseq methodology for capturing and analysing single cell genomic DNA amplicons alongside the transcriptome and cell surface protein expression. nature.com/articles/s4158…

Published today our new LAG-3 paper @CellCellPress. My group #JasperDu #JiaYou and collaborators revealed a key role of TCR proximity in LAG-3’s inhibitory function and developed LAG-3/TCR BiTS to effectively inhibit LAG-3+ T cells. dlvr.it/TLhkv7

T cells do the heavy lifting when it comes to the anti-tumor action of checkpoint immunotherapy. But do antibodies play a role too? That’s the question @yile_dai looked to answer in his thesis work, out today in @Nature! 🧵below nature.com/articles/s4158…

I really enjoyed this conversation with @UroDocAsh @UroToday where we discussed how AI and deep learning are transforming how we think about cancer treatment, especially in bladder cancer. We discussed our work using AI to integrate data streams from the lab and the clinic to…

Be sure to check out the @WCMEnglanderIPM's response in @oncodaily to the @NIH call for a national #AI strategy to chart a course from today’s #analytics to a future of autonomous AI—a fundamental shift for #biomedicine. oncodaily.com/blog/olivier-e…

With aging populations, a changing climate, and disruptive tech like AI, we've never needed science more to tackle the world's biggest challenges. Great to see the EU proposing to double research funding to €175B to find the solutions we need. science.org/content/articl…

🚨New from us: Given they are trained on human data, can you use psychological techniques that work on humans to persuade AI? Yes! Applying Cialdini's principles for human influence more than doubles the chance of GPT-4o-mini agrees to objectionable requests compared to controls

My @NYUDataScience colleague, Carlos Fernandez-Granda, released the 700-page textbook «Probability and Statistics for Data Science», where he condenses 10 years of teaching experience at @NYUniversity. 200 exercises, 102 notebooks, 115 videos! 🥳🥳🥳 ps4ds.net

Thanks Dr. Parsa Mirhaji (@pmirhaji), middle, from @Perlmutter_CC @nyuniversity for presenting "Patient Screening and Clinical Trials Matching Using #LLMs" today @WCMEnglanderIPM with Adil Ahmed, right, #MachineLearning Engineer from @EinsteinDeptMed, with @ElementoLab, left.

Fiction can be a powerful guide for how we deploy technology. "The Dream Hotel" by @LailaLalami is a compelling cautionary tale about the societal risks of predictive AI, highlighting why building ethical, transparent systems is so important. Read more at open.substack.com/pub/profelemen…

We hope to see you Friday for our next #PrecisionMedicine #AI Working Group, presented by Dr. Elvire Roblin from WCM's Institute for Computational Biomedicine!

Everyone missed the real China story. While we debated TikTok, Chinese scientists quietly built 1,250 novel drug candidates—up from 160 in 2015. That's not a typo. They added 1,090 innovative medicines in 9 years. The entire EU added 200. Here's how they broke pharma's…

Becoming an RL diehard in the past year and thinking about RL for most of my waking hours inadvertently taught me an important lesson about how to live my own life. One of the big concepts in RL is that you always want to be “on-policy”: instead of mimicking other people’s…

Thanks @OfficeAme for the interview with @WCMEnglanderIPM Clinical Director Dr. Cora Sternberg (@cnsternberg)! "Publishing has led to collaboration, recognition, and the opportunity to mentor & inspire the next generation of scientists,” Dr. Sternberg. tcr.amegroups.org/post/view/inte…
