In a recent study published in the journal Nature, researchers at the Arc Institute describe the development and advantages of “Evo 2”. Evo 2 is a novel biological foundation model trained on a ...

Researchers at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center have performed a comprehensive evaluation of five artificial intelligence (AI) models trained on genomic sequences, known as DNA ...

Scientists say they may be able to design DNA without copying it, opening the door for major advancements in biology and biotech. Specific enzymes can sometimes create DNA that strays from a given ...

So, figuring out how to make a new protein can mean directly tinkering with biochemistry, providing new and potentially useful functions. Since the genetic code provides a layer of abstraction between ...

Precise activation of tens of thousands of genes is critical for healthy development and growth. Specialized segments of our ...

Scientists are increasingly applying artificial intelligence (AI) to biologics discovery, including de novo protein design. However, complex sequence-function relationships and the need for ...

Most people are familiar with the DNA double-helix. Its twisted ladder shape forms because the long pieces of DNA that make up our genome are exactly complementary—every adenine paired to a thymine, ...

Generative AI is biology’s new playground. The technology powering popular chatbots can also dream up new, entirely novel versions of life’s most basic molecules, from DNA to proteins. Once the domain ...

The grand promise of artificial intelligence has always been the benefit to humanity. We were promised climate change solutions and cures for disease. Instead, it feels like the market is swamped with ...
