@DrShellyJ and I have mapped out the next phase for @BioKEAAI on our kid’s art easel. Obviously big things coming down the pipe.

Printing overnight at @BioKEAAI. Pretty close to having everything ready for tomorrow’s build of an insect size-fractionation device. Open-source plans used and most parts designed w/o support legs, but had to use support to manage a hinge. Slightly less than ideal, but no biggie

Some teaser shots ahead of next week's reveal of how to turn an off-the-shelf electronics pick-and-place machine (the @OpuloInc Lumen V4) into a high-throughput "bugpicker" that picks up tiny insects and puts them into 96-well plates for DNA sequencing, 1000xing the pace of DNA barcoding of species.

We are 3D printing sample sorting component pieces this weekend at @BioKEAAI . Goal is to develop further our front-end physical separation capabilities to size-fractionate the insects and other critters. Printing all weekend! Batch one of n. Already need to buy more filament!

It’s Friday morning here at @BioKEAAI and we’ve both the coffee pot and 3D printer already operating. Today we continue our adventures with @chr1sa and are currently printing prototype components for our @OpuloInc PnP machine turned BugPicker. Live stream link in comments.

You (both) spoke. We listened. Today @BioKEAAI will be streaming with semi-enhanced production values. Feedback such as, “oh look, men working from distance” were highly considered and so today we’ll feature more up close robotics and 3D printing. (1/2)

[Sean Jungbluth @seanjungbluth]

Yesterday marked the end of our first week’s effort changing the @OpuloInc pick and place into an insect sorting robot. We’ve open sourced and shared our work at https://t.co/Og6tlyXfR1 (in progress). Stay tuned next week for more 🐜 action that leverages BioKEA’s new 3D printer

Yesterday was an amazing experience at @AnthropicAI Code with Claude. It's impossible not to feel the excitement in the community.

Today I'm thrilled to be presenting on the Founder's stage at Code with Claude: Extended! (1/2)

[Claude @claudeai]

Code with Claude, our developer conference, returns next week.

Whether you're just getting started with Claude Code or you've been building for a while, there's a session for you.

Register for the livestream: https://t.co/GJwOPMDLEC

[BioKEA @BioKEAAI]

Two milestones for our founder @seanjungbluth: a CwC talk on domain experts in the age of AI, and his appointment as a Claude Community Ambassador (SF Bay) — a role he'll use to build community for science and tech more broadly.

[Claude @claudeai]

Our developer conference Code with Claude returns this spring, this time in San Francisco, London, and Tokyo.

Join us for a full day of workshops, demos, and 1:1 office hours with teams behind Claude.

I’m pleased to share that BioKEA secured $25K from the Google for Startups Cloud Program. These credits advance our pursuit of large-scale GPUs for AI bioinformatics. #BioKEA #GoogleCloud -SJ

Another late announcement: stopped by LBNL’s LEEP Demo Day last Wed @ Berkeley Commons (https://t.co/e3SSF5M8mw). Demoed BioKEA’s 1st product, Agentis, built entirely outside the lab, and showed how we are challenging existing publication models. Great event! -SJ

Two more snapshots from the JBIMS session: one at the session start and one in front of UC-Berkeley's iconic Campanile (https://t.co/DeeBnxLFov). -SJ

[BioKEA @BioKEAAI]

Late announcement, but had the chance to share Agentis, BioKEA’s first product, at JBIMS on May 15. Demonstrated how our agentic peer-review engine scored a preprint in minutes and sparked a discussion on transparent AI in science. Energized by the questions and feedback. -SJ

Introducing BioKEA (https://t.co/mW47cq0azi). In the AI age, this is our attempt to make omics analysis feel as fluid as writing and talking with ChatGPT. After months of late-night tinkering, we're close to shipping products. Watch this space for news, updates, and ideas.
