What would it take for one AI system to design gene therapies, cell therapies, and antibiotics? @faylinphd.bsky.social explores how EDEN was built to test that idea — using trillions of tokens of evolutionary DNA to learn biology’s underlying rules. Read it here: www.genengnews.com/topics/artif...

How combining AI with genetic databases can harness lessons from evolution to develop new diseases treatments. An international collaboration using information from more than 1mn species offers potential solutions to problems from cancers to drug-resistant superbugs. www.ft.com/content/29ec...

Introducing EDEN — a 28B-parameter biological foundation model trained on 9.7T nucleotide tokens, including >10B novel genes from >1M species. This evolutionary scale is what makes generalisable biological design possible. Paper: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

Gene editing’s long-running “holy grail” is programmable gene insertion: placing large pieces of DNA precisely, safely & durably, regardless of mutation. @endpts.com Endpoints tracks John Finn’s gene-insertion quest—from Intellia and Tome now to Basecamp Research. endpoints.news/as-gene-edit...

How can AI and nature’s hidden code lead to programmable gene therapies? Basecamp Research Co-founder & CEO GlenGowers.bsky.social explores this question at @financialtimes.com Times Live Global Pharma and Biotech Summit (Nov 11–12) with industry leaders. 👉 For full details, visit bit.ly/4pPcJpd
