We proudly present to you the #AITHYRA corporate identity, a mixture of logo, motion and sound design. Thanks to our Design Partner Studio Dumbar for a creative and joyful process, and the OeAW and BIS for giving us the confidence and trust to go new ways. More to come www.oeaw.ac.at/aithyra/news...

In this work, we explored how training data similarity impacts protein-ligand prediction accuracy—an overlooked aspect in recent benchmarks. Our analysis shows that the current co-folding methods struggle to generalize beyond ligand poses in their training data.(2/n)

Two major life updates: - I'm moving to Senior Applied Research Scientist in Digital Biology at NVIDIA (Jan '25) - I'm starting a new lab at Duke as Visiting Assistant Prof (early '25) Both roles focus on tackling hard problems in biological machine learning through collaborative research. Long 🧵

Boltz v0.4.0 is here! Today, we’re releasing our full data processing pipeline, making it easier than ever to build on top of Boltz. This release also includes our evaluation code and new results. Oh, and also pocket conditioning :)
