a nice demonstration of Claude Science, but worth clarifying that the design is not "done by Claude" but by orchestrating tool calls of open-source, task-specific protein design models: PXDesign, RFdiffusion, Genie, BoltzGen, etc

I think the direction of LLMs using biology-specific models is a good one!

Vihaan is 5 years old and has cystic fibrosis. If he lived in the U.S., he would soon be eligible for a powerful new drug that has been transforming lives.

But he lives in India, and the drug's maker is not making it available in poorer countries. https://t.co/589lUsJMlf

'Disruptive' science has plummeted — and no one knows why.

Research in the 2000s is much more likely to incrementally push science forward than to veer off in a new direction.
