Notes on AI and software
What AI can and cannot do for drug design
AI can now propose new proteins in hours. Turning one into a medicine is still a biology problem.
What shipping software taught me about running a lab
Building apps alongside my research taught me things a lab rarely teaches: deadlines, users and versions.
I wrote my first program at ten. It made me a better biologist.
Code taught me to break a big problem into small, testable steps. So did the lab, eventually.
AlphaFold and the protein folding problem: a new tool for biology
At the CASP14 assessment, an AI system predicted protein structures with accuracy close to experiment.
