The AI-based program AlphaFold predicts a protein’s 3D structure with remarkable accuracy. However, it tends to reduce heterogeneous structures to a single dominant conformation, or shape, and ...

The same family of artificial intelligence that powers today's image generators is now being aimed at one of biology's ...

A combined team of medical researchers and AI systems specialists from Google's Deep Mind project and Isomorphic Labs, both in London, has made what the group describes as substantial improvements to ...

“I’ll be shocked if we don’t see more and more LLM impact on science,” says John Jumper. In 2017, fresh off a PhD on theoretical chemistry, John Jumper heard rumors that Google DeepMind had moved on ...

Intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) do not attain a stable secondary or tertiary structure and rapidly change their conformation, making structure prediction particularly challenging. Although ...

John Jumper, who won the 2024 Nobel Prize in Chemistry for AlphaFold, is leaving Google DeepMind after nine years to join Anthropic. John Jumper, the Google DeepMind vice president who won the 2024 ...

WIRED spoke with DeepMind’s Pushmeet Kohli about the recent past—and promising future—of the Nobel Prize-winning research project that changed biology and chemistry forever. To understand what the ...

AlphaFold An artificial intelligence system developed by Google DeepMind that predicts three-dimensional protein structures from amino acid sequences and, in AlphaFold 3, models biomolecular complexes ...
