Mini-symposium “AI in structural biology: What’s next ?” on November 12 2024 at @institutpasteur organised by @BardiauxB @DBSC_IP and myself. With @grudinin @jessica_compbio @acarbone16 G. Bouvier S. Cocco @LP_ENS_ More info + free registration👇research.pasteur.fr/en/event/half-…
Excited to share Nicheformer! Led by @Alejandro__TL & @AnnaCSchaar, Nicheformer is a foundation model for single-cell & spatial omics. Its innovation is going beyond disassociated analysis to capture & predict local tissue context at single-cell level. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
Support the statement!
Signed by over 120 experts, our letter highlighting the urgent need for a collaborative effort to establish a #FAIR database for #MolecularDynamics simulation data, is now on Arxiv. 📎 Read it here: bit.ly/3WjcC7x 📝Support our statement: bit.ly/3zVS3qm #MDDB
Joseph on sciCSR to study and infer class switching dynamics in B cells using scRNA-seq data #ISMB2024
Oriol's talk on addressing biases in variant impact prediction at VarI #ISMB2024
Dongjun's talk on ImmunoMatch a.k.a. antibody "tinder" to study heavy and light chain pairing at 3DSIG! #ISMB2024
I'm ready! Come and ask your questions. Online, 1:30 today (24th of June 2024). bbk.ac.uk/events/event/4…
🚀 NAR Genomics & Bioinformatics now ranks #8 among bioinformatics journals with a 2023 impact factor of 4.0! We're opening 3 Deputy Editor positions. Join our team: academic.oup.com/nargab/pages/d… #Bioinformatics #AcademicJobs #nargab
I was asked by @NatureSMB to write a commentary on the future of structural biology which I am unsure about. I wrote about collaborative research instead. It is not open access but it can be read via this link rdcu.be/dNOLS
I'm excited to announce that GCDM for 3D molecule diffusion generation and optimization is now published in Nature @CommsChem! Paper: nature.com/articles/s4200… Code: github.com/BioinfoMachine…
Well here it is: ESM3!! 🌟 The training regime is a bit different than your classic ESM-2/BERT model: you can start with a fully masked sequence and iteratively unmask. Super similar to our PepMLM model with ESM-2, which showed significant promise at full masking and unmasking.…
We have trained ESM3 and we're excited to introduce EvolutionaryScale. ESM3 is a generative language model for programming biology. In experiments, we found ESM3 can simulate 500M years of evolution to generate new fluorescent proteins. Read more: evolutionaryscale.ai/blog/esm3-rele…
Springer Nature made over $500M in profit in 2022, 27% margin 💰 (outrageous given most publishing costs are covered by public funds) Nature's editors on strike for fair pay Editors are highly skilled professionals who deserve full respect I signed👇 docs.google.com/document/d/1Th…
IntAct release 247 is out! 1,572,071 binary interactions from 23,417 manually curated publications ebi.ac.uk/intact/about#s… (in sync with UniProt release 2024_03)
CECAM is pleased to announce launch of KIM REVIEW, a new journal of commentaries on seminal papers in molecular simulation supported by the KIM Initiative. Recent commentary topics: Superselectivity; Boltzmann generators; plasticity simulations. Free at kimreview.org
Maybe you have heard about MD simulations, but did you ever hear an MD simulation? 👂📷 New paper by Carla Scaletti, Martin Gruebele and colleagues explore data sonification as a means to analyze our simulations of the folding of a WW domain 📽️ youtu.be/Yyk5ULs1S24?fe… 🎶🎶
Bernal lecture at @BirkbeckScience, this Thursday, the 9th of May at 4:00 pm. Free (definitely), educating (certainly), entertaining (I imagine) and with drinks at the end (if you are fast enough). Need I say more?
Join us next Thursday as @BBKNatSci invites you to our 2024 Bernal Lecture with @GuptaR_lab Don't miss this fascinating talk with drinks reception at the end! This event will be free, but booking is essential: bit.ly/3wucAkh
We're looking for a postdoc and an RA to join us @ucl! Interested in how the #malaria parasite adapts its cytoskeleton for disease transmission? Join our @wellcometrust funded project and use #insitu #CryoET to study parasites! DM or email any questions. Links in the comments.
caroline Babisz from @DrTanyaSoliman lab presenting at the newly inaugurated GCB chalk talks @QMBCI. Very well done!!!!
The potential of proteomics has long been appreciated. What is new is that current technologies afford proteomic analysis at unprecedented scales and resolution: blog.slavovlab.net/2023/11/29/pro…
Do not miss this great meeting on cell biology and pathogens! Abstract deadline: 1st April. The inaugural FEBS EMBO Cell biology of host-pathogen interactions meeting in Padua 🇮🇹 meetings.embo.org/event/24-host-… #EMBOcellBioHostPath Spread the word!
