I’ve always believed the No.1 application of AI should be to improve human health.

That work started with AlphaFold, and now at @IsomorphicLabs with the mission to reimagine drug discovery and one day solve all disease!

We are turbocharging that goal with $2.1B in new funding.

@hannahrosekirk This is a really interesting study.

@jackclarkSF True. The policy bottleneck right now is not a lack of good ideas. What we need is to build stronger political coalitions that can actually implement some of those ideas. Until AI becomes a top voting issue, some of them would benefit from being reframed as not solely AI-focused.

This is an amazing opportunity
