May 25th is Huntington Awareness Day 💙

I’ve added early HTT gene support to Gene Exon Editor, with a slider
to explore CAG repeat changes visually.

Try the WIP version:

Happy World DNA Day! 🧬

Decoding DNA ➡️ mRNA ➡️ Protein shouldn't be a mystery. I built DNAGCat to help #RareDisease families learn the science of genetics through play! 🐈

What if AI could invent enzymes that nature hasn’t seen? 👩‍🔬🧑‍🔬

Introducing 🪩 DISCO: Diffusion for Sequence-structure CO-design

14 rounds of directed evolution and over a year of wet lab work. That's what it took to engineer an enzyme for selective C(sp³)–H insertion, one of the most challenging transformations in organic chemistry.

DISCO surpasses this with a single plate. No pre-specified catalytic residues, no template, no theozyme, no inverse folding, just joint diffusion over protein sequence and structure.

This is another WIP - Rare Disease Planet - allow families to place their location on the map, and also add in current medical trials they are on for their particular rare disease ( Huntingtons, DMD etc ), and get a global view of potential treatment in other parts of the world.

Here’s a sneak keep at one of a new WIP app, allowing families to become more familiar with chromosomes and genes ( where their gene is located, where other genes for things like eye colour are located - what other genes are located on the chromosome etc )

Two sneak peeks at switching between multiple related genes, live now for testing but not unlocked yet in public UI

Some rare diseases have multiple associated genes - latest development build allows you to pick multiple genes and easily switch between them using tabs ( in this case, SGCA/B/D/G )

💜 2 weeks to @RareDiseaseDay (Feb 28).

As a parent, a hard part of a rare diagnosis is feeling alone.

I built Shared Footsteps so families can map & compare medical timelines.
