Sriram (Rami) Hathwar

Investor @_DimensionCap. Interested in ML infra and biotech!

[Sriram (Rami) Hathwar @hathwar607]

Super excited to join the investing team @_DimensionCap! Excited to partner with founders building in tech and life sciences.

Please reach out if you're working in this area, whether in the Bay or beyond!

[DIMENSION @_DimensionCap]

Excited to introduce our newest team member, Sriram (“Rami”) Hathwar! 🚀

From winning the US Scripps National Spelling Bee, to enrolling in a Chemistry/Bio/CS curriculum at Princeton, to developing bioinformatics tools at a clinical stage biotech, Rami embodies the interdisciplinary culture of the firm and our founders.

We’re fortunate to have his curiosity, drive, and passion for science and technology on the Dimension team and are certain that he will make an immediate impact in the community! Please be on the lookout for him out in the industry and make sure to get in touch @hathwar607.

It is not too late to _actually_ own your inference.

Introducing: Modal Auto Endpoints.

[Nan Li @nanli]

Congrats to Deniz, Sherry and @tamarindbio team on the partnership with Lilly! Excited to announce that Lilly's TuneLab model initiative will be solely powered by Tamarind's platform.

There are more high performance open and closed-source bio ML models now than ever. Tamarind has built the leading hosting and inference infrastructure to coordinate these models and run them in production for some of the largest Pharma companies in the world. Great milestone deal here and exciting times ahead. 🚀

Watching the @ScrippsBee for the first time on the West coast with @sparab22

12 years later Ive caught myself saying "No way thats a word" far too many times

These kids are too smart!

[Sriram (Rami) Hathwar @hathwar607]

@katclone @MIT Congrats kat!

[Zavain Dar @zavaindar]

Dimension has doubled down in each of the last 3 financings

@bernhardsson @akshat_b and team are assembling the absolute best of the best of infra x computer science builders engineering the requisite infra to accelerate AI across every major column of the global GDP

LFG

[Zavain Dar @zavaindar]

awesome to see two of our largest portfolio positions at @_DimensionCap, Anthropic and Modal, partner w sandboxes for managed agents

[DIMENSION @_DimensionCap]

Congrats to Gary Glick and the entire Odyssey Therapeutics team on today’s upsized IPO! We’re thrilled to deepen our partnership with the team as they aim to redefine the standard of care for patients living with autoimmune and inflammatory diseases. https://t.co/hzG6871reo

[Sriram (Rami) Hathwar @hathwar607]

Are we sure this isn't a pharma deal? Sounds like $10B in upfronts and $60B in biobucks...

On the edge of my seat for Cursor to secure FDA approval

[SpaceX @SpaceX]

SpaceXAI and @cursor_ai are now working closely together to create the world’s best coding and knowledge work AI.

The combination of Cursor’s leading product and distribution to expert software engineers with SpaceX’s million H100 equivalent Colossus training supercomputer will allow us to build the world’s most useful models.

Cursor has also given SpaceX the right to acquire Cursor later this year for $60 billion or pay $10 billion for our work together.

.@_DimensionCap cofounded neolab Coefficient called out in Anthropic’s quest to impact the life sciences

will be fun to watch the Anthropic and Coefficient teams double down on Coefficient’s build over the last year

we’re still just at the very, very beginning

[Akshat Bubna @akshat_b]

One cool thing here (besides robots!) is we were able to get sub-5ms latency in some cases using direct UDP connections.

Last year, I hacked together something to prove it works (https://t.co/l0x8o51wiK) and then @_gongy rewrote it into a Rust library.

[Simon Barnett @SimonDBarnett]

Honestly, Nikhil is such a weapon. Love spending time with him and learning about all things ML ~ hugely proud of the team @_DimensionCap and of Nikhil's achievement here. Very much deserved

[Zavain Dar @zavaindar]

congrats to our very own @nikhilvnamburi, who as entrepreneurs building infra and ML know is an absolute gem of a human and extremely sharp savvy investor!!

[Simon Barnett @SimonDBarnett]

So few #AI x #Bio conversations focus on bioprocess scale-up! 📈

All the novel upstream tech is for naught if we don't solve this bottleneck.

My newest essay argues why a 17th-century method started w/ Galileo may hold a key.

I believe it so much I got it tattooed.

[Simon Barnett @SimonDBarnett]

Galileo's similarity theory powered centuries of industrialization, but living cells broke it.

In my newest essay, I argue that encoding this theory as an inductive bias is the only way to transform #bioprocess scaling from alchemy back into engineering.

[Zavain Dar @zavaindar]

to sama’s credit, he took 4 months to pull the plug on sora .. short enough to still catch up on code and enterprise to anthropic

zuck spent 7 years chasing the “metaverse” before killing the project this month. in that same time the entirety of modern AI came to fruition

[Frank Gao @ChemVagabond]

We gave AI agents varying freedom to optimize models for protein thermostability prediction. They beat a 15x larger reference model, matched Bayesian optimization. And we learned a hybrid approach may work even better.

GTC is basically a bunch of drug addicts begging drug dealers for supply if you replace drugs with GPUs.

[Zavain Dar @zavaindar]

.@_DimensionCap is leading a $40M financing for Congruence, leveraging frontier AI & molecular dynamics for a best in class small molecule corrector platform. This financing brings this high powered nimble team into the clinic w/ 3 unique assets. LFG!

Memo: What If We're Right?

We recently wrote a private letter to partners & friends of a common failure mode: the inability to consistently reason through the daisy chain of downstream consequence when non-consensus, low-probability, events actually occur

pages: 1-3

[Frank Gao @ChemVagabond]

We @_DimensionCap ported @karpathy's autoresearch framework to biology.

We let Claude run 50 experiments over the weekend on protein thermostability prediction via @modal.

It beat a recent baseline (TemBERTure) using a 20x smaller model.

Code + research blog later this week!
