It was great having you here! Hope to see you again soon! 🍺🍺
It was such a delight to visit @xiaolin422's group at the @CAS__Science in Beijing! @dianagdlc and I presented our recent work, made some new friends and reconnected with some old @TheSainsburyLab colleagues. Such a nice experience!

Claude speeds up molecular design models: 4x on average
@AnthropicAI took open biomolecular modeling tools like ESMFold2, OpenDDE, and RFdiffusion, and let Claude (Science) optimize the model kernels, the part of the software interfacing with underlying hardware, in got a 4x average speed improvement without major accuracy losses.

🚨 EffectorGeneP is finally here! Stop missing small, single-exon or orphan genes from your favourite pathogen genome. Current tools only annotate 15%-78% of effector genes, EffectorGeneP finds 95% - including the large AvrSr26 family in stem rust. biorxiv.org/content/10.64898…

Excited to share our preprint! Plant tandem kinase proteins (TKPs) provide resistance to Magnaporthe by direct effector binding. TKPs are an emerging class of disease resistance proteins. Thanks to @YiChangSung1 @LAntheline @FahimaTzion @AsukeSoichiro
