Congrats to the Nudge team!
Half the world will experience a brain disorder in their lifetime. At @nudge, we're building brain interfaces that are safe, precise, and non-invasive to solve that problem. We've raised a $100M Series A led by @ThriveCapital and Greenoaks to go faster. We're hiring. Join us.
cool result! Looks like using AI to select experimental cocktails of transcription factors outperforms manual trial-and-error at finding methods to reprogram/differentiate cells into a desired state.
reprogramming cells with transcription factors is our most expressive tool for engineering cell state traditionally, we found TFs by ~guesswork @icmlconf we're sharing @newlimit's SOTA AI models that can design reprogramming payloads by building on molecular foundation models
I still fundamentally believe in "show the world who you really are, and you'll attract people who appreciate that." Romantic authenticity. A little out of fashion but it *does actually work*.
