More than we thought...

Our latest research, just published in @GigaScience, reveals something incredible: the chemical diversity of plants is far greater than previously thought, potentially reaching more than 𝘁𝗲𝗻𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝗺𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝘂𝗻𝗶𝗾𝘂𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱𝘀.

Why does this matter? Because each newly discovered plant compound holds the promise of groundbreaking 𝗻𝗲𝘄 𝘁𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗱𝗶𝘀𝗲𝗮𝘀𝗲𝘀 we currently struggle to address. By combining cutting-edge #AI and mass spectrometry, Enveda has positioned itself at the forefront of unlocking nature's immense therapeutic potential.

This is more than a scientific #discovery - it's a leap forward in our understanding of #nature and #hope for patients.

Pea plants detect neighbors through strigolactone signals in the soil

How do plants know they have neighbors?

@CaraWheeldon show pea plants sense nearby competitors through underground strigolactone (SL) signals, which alter their growth

“We’re building generalisable AI models capable of learning from the entire universe of protein and chemical interactions. This fundamentally breaks from the target-specific, siloed approach of conventional drug development.”
Tune in to hear our Chief Technology Officer, @SergeiIakhnin, and Chief AI Officer, @maxjaderberg on the NVIDIA AI Podcast, where they discuss how Isomorphic Labs is applying cutting-edge AI to reimagine drug discovery, and what it means for the future of precision medicine.

Guess what I found today. Online course contents for Experimental Design and Analysis with R at UC Davis (listed as Plant Sciences 205 at UC Davis). I took it back in 2017 when I was a PhD student, but now it is also online! I highly recommend.
