I am so happy to see this paper by @PaulRobustelli, whom I have never met but would like to. It characterizes structure in disordered proteins using the writhe of the chain. I used this is 1983 to calculate protein structure using known pairs-wise interactions. I was…
We're inspired by work in the late 70s by Harold Scheraga using differential geometry to describe polymer conformations (pubs.acs.org/doi/epdf/10.10…) and a @MLevitt_NP2013 1983 JMB classic (sciencedirect.com/science/articl…) calculating writhe of protein conformations using discrete segments.
This is really exciting work that I am proud to be a part of. RNA is a remarkable material as it has structure and also carries information. My first paper published in 1969 modeled RNA structure in transferRNA. The paper by @GalOren8 is about using AI to better predict…

Thank you. Ben and I are working together and making many interesting discoveries. This is a hugely positive legacy of my days on X-Twitter.
Hey guys. @MLevitt_NP2013 & @USMortality I remembered you watching Dr. JB's hearing and news reports. You did some great data analysis that made a huge difference. Many don't say it, but they know. Regards 👍
Ben you are amazing.
I’ve recently updated German data to use more user-friendly 10-year age groups instead of the previous 5-year intervals. The difference was surprisingly large, so I decided to investigate—digging deep into the code for about three days to verify everything. Here’s what I found:…
Editing messenger RNA could allow a single mRNA vaccine to code for different proteins. Sounds risky to me. Still , it may have importance in future.
New mRNA vaccines on arrival? 🤔
Really is important!!
@GalOren8 has done something remarkable in AI for Science by teaching ChatGPT the language of RNA. I am so proud to be involved in this project with him and Erez Levanon.
Thanks so much.
OT, I encountered your sensible videos and interviews in the early days of the covid lockdowns from Australia. Just want you to know i appreciated your comments and interviews back then. Cheerio.
Very impressive analysis. Thank so much
Okay. Thanks for the nerd snipe guys. I spent the day learning exactly how DeepSeek trained at 1/30 the price, instead of working on my pitch deck. The tl;dr to everything, according to their papers:
Wrong article and link. Sorry about that mistake. The article is in the Hebrew version of the Calcalist at: calcalist.co.il/magazine/artic… The English translation is at dropbox.com/scl/fi/ysw4ljw… My words about the writer Roni Dori @RoniDori are accurate.
Really great interviews and follow-up by Roni Dori @RoniDori Actually I am Michael Levitt @MLevitt_NP2013. I will post the link English translation if there is any interest. This could my first Covid-free post since March 2020.
Yes, @stephen_s has been working hard to keep me honest with a totally independent project aimed at peak finding and fitting. I am in great awe of maths and programming skills. Thank you.
Yes yes, I’ll try and finish my quadruple check for bugs in the fitting algorithm asap. So much time and so little to do…
Agree with you. Is this because it in spite of the US embargo of the fastest GPU chips. Reminds me of the hidden story in LIU Cixin’s trilogy “Three Body Problem”.
Deepseek R1 is one of the most amazing and impressive breakthroughs I’ve ever seen — and as open source, a profound gift to the world. 🤖🫡
Certainly do. Most of the first major outbreak in the particular location are predictable Gompertz Growth rather than unpredictable Ligistic Growth. Have all the data of a comprehensive analysis waiting final write-up.
As far as I know Micheal Levitt still supports the notion that pandemic virus spread follows a gompertz curve, like he stated in 2020.
Really great interviews and follow-up by Roni Dori @RoniDori Actually I am Michael Levitt @MLevitt_NP2013. I will post the link English translation if there is any interest. This could my first Covid-free post since March 2020.

Jay Bhattacharya is next NIH head. What a nice surprise. Congratulations @DrJBhattacharya nytimes.com/2024/11/26/us/…
This would be amazing! Jay Bhattacharya now top candidate to be Trump's pick for NIH director The Stanford-trained physician and economist, who won GOP support after pushing back on covid lockdowns, is said to have impressed RFK Jr., Donald Trump's pick to lead HHS.

One graph that explains why things are so difficult in the USA today…

A day’s experience with @OpenAI new ChatGPT o1-preview is a huge WOW. This is a massive jump forward! my vantage point involves almost 22 months & over 2000 conversations with previous versions. It also has the voice entry that I so appreciate.

Not surprised. nytimes.com/2024/08/13/bus… Stupidity exhibited by almost all other countries in COVID pandemic years will reverberate for decades. The 40 trillion in added debt was wasted.
