une petite pièce

Join us @msftresearch.bsky.social AI for Science - only open this week: aka.ms/bioemu-applied Lead a collaboration with drug discoverers. Orchestrate experimental data generation. Deploy BioEmu and other tools to understand biology at scale. #Biology #Bioinformatics #CompBio #MachineLearning

"One of the most deprived areas" also turns out to contain the only local greengrocers and butchers for kilometers around. Invest in improving the existing council housing!! www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Do you want to invent the future of Chemistry with us? We‘re looking for a "Digital Native” Organic Chemist to join our team at Microsoft Research AI for Science. We offer an amazing environment where you can do deep research with passionate and talented colleagues to solve problems that matter! 1/2

Apparently the AUR is being heavily DDOS'ed right now. What a time to be alive. Support the core Arch developers and remain wary of recent package uploads.

Join our BioEmu project @msftresearch.bsky.social AI for Science. In Berlin DE or Cambridge UK: aka.ms/bioemu-ml - #MachineLearning Researcher aka.ms/bioemu-data - Data Engineer aka.ms/bioemu-applied - Applied Researcher aka.ms/bioemu-principal - Principal Applied Researcher

Want to help us train the next generation of BioEmu models? We have 4-5 FTE research and engineering openings across different seniority levels in my team. Positions in Berlin (DE) or Cambridge (UK). Send me a message for any questions and please share with interested candidates! Links below

Want to join the BioEmu team at MSR AI for Science? We have multiple intern (jobs.careers.microsoft.com/global/en/jo...) and one fixed-term postdoc (jobs.careers.microsoft.com/global/en/jo... positions available! Please share with potential candidates :)

We have multiple senior scientist / engineer positions available across several geos in MSR AI for Science. Ping me or any of my colleagues if you have any questions! www.microsoft.com/en-us/resear...

well you don't hit the cover of a journal like this often

"Solar panels are useless in Britain"

Want to join our efforts @msftresearch.bsky.social AI for Science to push the frontier of AI for materials? We are the team behind MatterGen & MatterSim and we have 2 job openings! Each can be in Amsterdam, NL, Berlin, DE, or Cambridge, UK.

Summer's behaving beautifully 😍

Today in the journal Science: BioEmu from Microsoft Research AI for Science. This generative deep learning method emulates protein equilibrium ensembles – key for understanding protein function at scale. www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

BioEmu now published in @science.org !! What is BioEmu? Check out this video: youtu.be/LStKhWcL0VE?...

BioEmu is now on @science.org ! The revised version includes an upgraded model and makes a lot of MD simulation data internally generated at MSR available to the public. This took a lot of firepower from us in the last two years. www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

'Vacations.' The word is 'vacations.'

@msftresearch.bsky.social AI for science presents Orbformer, a foundation model for high accuracy quantum Chemistry. Strongly correlated states such as bond dissociation can be accurately computed without manually selecting active spaces or basis sets.

Microsoft researchers achieved a breakthrough in the accuracy of DFT, a method for predicting the properties of molecules and materials, by using deep learning. This work can lead to better batteries, green fertilizers, precision drug discovery, and more. www.microsoft.com/en-us/resear...

As a native Spanish speaker, it baffles me the dissonance between written and oral languages in English. For instance, you write "BlueSky is a dead echo chamber for libs", but it reads "I want to post slurs without being blocked".

Media recommendation of the week: petespans.co It's the best YouTube/Instagram cooking channel re. Catalan/French cuisine out there. By far. And it's made by an American 🤯

I moved to the UK during "Britain's failed experiment in open borders". The company I co-founded has created >100 jobs, and my wife and I are raising two British kids. If the UK is becoming an "island of strangers", it's because the country is demonising and isolating immigrants like me

What the heck Keir. Now I need to wait another 6 years?

BioEmu can now be run on Azure foundry. You can really scale up inference there if you don't have your own cluster. @msftresearch.bsky.social ai.azure.com/explore/mode...

Pleading for a world where the reaction to this is a return to standard operating paradigms which don't require a smartphone or an app.

It’s been a full week, and not a single penguin has backed down or sold out. Could there be a lesson here for America’s law firms and universities?

I've just put an offer for a house here in the UK. It's the first time I do something like this - is there anything I should know, fellow blueskyers?

Sometimes in this fast-moving and complex modern world, it’s hard to know what’s right and what’s wrong. But here’s a handy rule of thumb: If you are ever on one side of an issue, and Sesame Street is on the other, YOU’RE the bad guy.

Run BioEmu in Colab - just click "Runtime → Run all"! Our notebook uses ColabFold to generate MSAs, BioEmu to predict trajectories, and Foldseek to cluster conformations. Thanks @jjimenezluna.bsky.social for the help! 🌐 colab.research.google.com/github/sokry... 📄 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

With all that's happening at the moment, for Spaniards it's particularly relevant to remember what happened to the Maine. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USS_Mai.... Stand with the EU.
