Excited that our work "Pre-trained molecular representations enable antimicrobial discovery" has been published in @NatureComms !

Can we leverage unlabeled chemical structures to find new inhibitors of bacterial growth? The answer is YES

1/5 Big news from Aguilar Lab! Check out our first preprint! We’ve developed a new prostate organoid model to crack the mystery of E. coli prostatitis, a common, tough-to-treat infection in men. Our model reveals how these bacteria get in and thrive. #UPEC #Organoids #UTI
