Excited to share our new paper in Nature Chemical Biology @nchembio AI is poised to transform #therapeutic #science The Commons is an initiative to access and evaluate #AI capability across therapeutic modalities and stages of discovery 1/4 nature.com/articles/s41589-0…

AutoScientists automatically produces model cards, experimental logs, failed hypotheses, dead-end registries, and research reports. The goal is not only to discover better models, but also to document how they were discovered.

With the ToolUniverse (TU) CLI, there’s no need to set up an MCP server—agents can instantly access tools with a single command. Paste this to your AI agent to use it now! "Read aiscientist.tools/setup.md and update to the latest ToolUniverse. I want to use the tu CLI."

📢 AI-enabled drug discovery reaches clinical milestone rdcu.be/eugUu Few AI-designed drug candidates have gone beyond in silico benchmarks. Now, a study in @NatureMedicine @biogerontology reports a successful phase 2a trial of rentosertib, an AI-discovered drug and target combination for idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis What distinguishes this study (in addition to clinical data) is the upstream innovation pipeline This trial marks a turning point: it affirms a potential for AI to do more than generate molecules faster and cheaper; guide discovery, de-risk development and potentially reshape how we develop medicines A pertinent question is: why did this AI-generated drug candidate advance to clinical testing when so many others have not? 🎯 Cross-disease target discovery and 'time-machine' setup: AI models trained on past data predicted therapeutic targets years ahead of traditional methods, pinpointing TNIK as a promising target 🔬 Robust biological validation: Integrated multi-omic analyses, network biology, and extensive literature mining rapidly validated TNIK’s biological relevance for fibrosis ⚙️ Chemistry design: Generative AI models designed molecules targeting novel binding sites, prioritized drug-likeness and synthetic feasibility, and proactively optimized pharmacokinetics and potency from early stages @biogerontology @InSilicoMeds @HarvardDBMI @Harvard @harvardmed @harvard_data @KempnerInst @broadinstitute

New in the Kempner's Deeper Learning blog: @AdaFang_ and @marinkazitnik introduce ATOMICA, a geometric foundation model that enables reasoning about biological systems with atom-level precision. bit.ly/KempnerATOMICA #AI #ML #MedTech

📄 Preprint: biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/… 🚀 Open source code, weights, and data: github.com/mims-harvard/ATOM…

ATOMICA characterizes interesting clusters of putative bacterial zinc fingers and cytochrome proteins. We're working on getting some of these validated in the lab 🧫👩‍🔬. Stay tuned!

Using masked token accuracy to proxy representation quality, we see training of ATOMICA follows scaling laws where representation quality improves with increasing biomolecular data modalities 📈

ATOMICA builds multi-scale representations at the atom, block (amino acid / nucleotide / common chemical motif), and interaction complex scale. 💡 The key is capturing *interaction complexes* - to learn patterns fundamental to chemistry, such as hydrogen bonds & pi-pi stacking.

Introducing ATOMICA 💫 A model to universally represent molecular interactions (for proteins, nucleic acids, small molecules, and ions) at an all-atom scale 🧵
