Earlier this week, we hosted our first workshop, which brought together researchers working on Generative AI in Biology. 🧬 Read our report 👇 www.genai.ac.uk/news-feed/ge... Thanks to @mrattray.bsky.social, @jhartford.bsky.social and @digitaluom.bsky.social for making this event such a success.

At yesterday's #GenBiology Workshop, Sarah Teichmann revealed that Ensocell, a venture-backed spinout from her lab and the Sanger Institute is looking for talented scientists to join its computational team. See below to read about two exciting opportunities based in Cambridge, UK.👇

Top-level talks yesterday at the Generative AI for Biology workshop organised by the UK’s Gen AI Hub. A lot of ideas and interesting applications! @genaihub.bsky.social

Last chance to apply for this postdoc position based at the University of Surrey. This position closes to applications at 23.59 tonight!

And that's it from the #GenBiology workshop. Thanks to @mrattray.bsky.social and colleagues for leading this. If you would like to collaborate with our working group please email us. Details here: linktr.ee/genaihub

AI covers all steps of the drug discovery pipeline across different functions from discovery and validation to the late clinical stage, says Marta Milo, describing how AI is helping AstraZeneca work towards its ambition to eliminate cancer as a cause of death. #GenBiology

Sarah Teichmann of @cambridgeuni.bsky.social describes projects to map the human body: "If we sort of dream for a minute, then one day we might be able to make whole chromosomes, inject them into cells culture and then have an entire engineered cell that has the properties that we want" #GenBiology

Enjoyed a presentation by Charlotte Bunne of EPFL on virtual cells & digital twins in personalised medicine at the Gen AI Hub's #genbiology workshop. She described how generative models can forecast a drug's success by mapping how cells in cancer patients would respond to different treatments.

Today the hub is hosting our first workshop. Today's subject is #GenBiology. UCL's Chris Barnes kick's off the event with a presentation on using generative models for genome design.
