Excited to launch our AlphaGenome API goo.gle/3ZPUeFX along with the preprint goo.gle/45AkUyc describing and evaluating our latest DNA sequence model powering the API. Looking forward to seeing how scientists use it! @googledeepmind

Very happy to share that I will soon start a PhD at Cambridge University funded by the Harding Distinguished Scholar Fellowship, supervised by @mikeinouye.bsky.social and Angela Wood. I’ll work on prediction methodologies for health trajectories, using molecular data, and Electronic Health Records.

ALTMAN, on Musk:

“.. I wish he would just compete by building a better product. .. Probably his whole life is from a position of insecurity, I feel for the guy... I don't think he's, like, a happy person.”

The FT reports OpenAI suspects DeepSeek of "a potential breach of intellectual property." As a columnist for NYT, which is suing OpenAI for copyright infringement, and the author of nine books OpenAI apparently used to train its model, I couldn't possibly comment. www.ft.com/content/a0df...

Very happy to share my first paper!

Here we take a look at different models for producing genomic prediction across a wide range of traits. We find that very specific conditions of where ML approaches can out preform linear regression.

Earlier this year, I was nominated and funded by unimelb to attend the Heidelberg Laureate forum in Germany. The conference connects 200 developing researchers from maths and compsci to award winning scientists inc. winners of the Fields Medal and Turing award.

It was an absolute blast!

Over 30 prominent scientists call for a ban on the creation of a "mirror cell"--a microbe made of molecules that are mirror images of their natural forms. It could cause a mind-boggling global disaster. Here's my story [gift link] 🧪https://nyti.ms/3OUCXp6
A ‘Second Tree of Life’ Could Wreak Havoc, Scientists Warn (Gift Article)
Research on so-called mirror cells, which defy fundamental properties of living organisms, should be prohibited as too dangerous, biologists said.
