🚨ICML Paper Alert🚨 What if finding the right protein homologs wasn't a slow search, but a learned part of the model itself? We introduce 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫, an end-to-end framework that learns to retrieve the most useful homologs for self-supervised reconstruction! (1/12)

Whose protein design model reins supreme? You design, we test, science wins 😛 Protein Engineering Tournament 2025 registration is live!!!!

Marks Lab is HIRING!!! If you're a software engineer interested in biology, proteins, RNAs, viruses, genomes, etc etc and ML apply here: shorturl.at/GZOqV
