Proteina: Scaling Flow-based Protein Structure Generative Models
Recently, diffusion- and flow-based generative models of protein structures have emerged as a powerful tool for de novo protein design. Here, we develop *Proteina*, a new large-scale flow-based...

See our preprint on a new computational protein design benchmark!
🔥 Benchmark Alert! MotifBench sets a new standard for evaluating protein design methods in motif scaffolding.
Why does this matter? Reproducibility & fair comparison have been lacking—until now.

Congrats Simon! I enjoyed our time together while starting protein design at DeepMind. Excited to see what you build. Consider joining latent labs if you're interested in ML and bio!
Latent Labs comes out of stealth today with $50M funding. Our goal? To push the frontiers of generative biology, giving partners instant access to tools capable of accelerating drug design

new preprint on chemical synthesis ML models

- showing how to combine multiple models in a principled way
- modern Transformers + GNN to featurize chemical reaction:
- new insights in where the models shine
+ bonus: find the quirky named reaction!

Feedback welcome!

Excited this is out! I learned a lot interning with Andrew Foong, @franknoe.bsky.social, and the team. Check out Frank's thread and the preprint to learn more.
Super excited to preprint our work on developing a Biomolecular Emulator (BioEmu): Scalable emulation of protein equilibrium ensembles with generative deep learning from @msftresearch.bsky.social ch AI for Science.

🚨Our Machine Learning Force Field Mattersim is now available! 🚨

Check it out here 👇

The force field is designed to be used on a vast range of temperatures and pressures, try it yourself :)

Feedback and suggestions are very welcome!

In a gratuitous attempt to acquire more followers myself 😁, I've made a start on a "starter pack". Hopefully as more people from 🐦 make it over to 🦋, we can extend this a bit. Suggestions welcome!

I've noticed not all accounts seem to be eligible to be added, anyone know what's up with that? 🤔
