Just released! This Amazing! #AlphaGenome — an AI system that predicts an organism’s genome sequence from its photograph. It regularly achieves accuracy competitive with experiment. Beta version at 25% but now >99% for Homo sapiens!

これは反対。それをするなら「外国人限定」の枠も設けてほしい。こんなあからさまな外国人差別が白昼堂々とまかり通るのか。公平に審査してるのに 博士課程の学生支援、生活費支給は「日本人限定」に見直しへ…受給者の４割近くが留学生・最多は中国籍 : 読売新聞オンライン yomiuri.co.jp/kyoiku/kyoiku/…

これはとてもよくない。優秀な留学生に日本に来てもらうことがいかに国益にかなうか、研究に携わっていない方々にも伝わってほしい。留学生が研究しても日本人が研究しても、成果は日本の大学に帰属する。留学生が日本に恩義を感じていれば帰国後も日本に恩を返してくれる。

Join us for another day at the #RoyalNorfolkShow to talk about what we do at The Sainsbury Laboratory !

We’re ready! And we have a LIVE reporter today 😆 #RoyalNorfolkShow2025

Nature Ecology & Evolution の Research Highlights で紹介されました。ええタイトルや！ doi.org/10.1038/s41559…

Really excited about our lab's latest paper led by Kevin Korfmann. Here, Kevin has developed a deep, transformer-based language model for population genetics for inferring coalescent times (times of common ancestry) along recombining chromosomes. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

New Postdoc position (2yrs) available in our #EvoMPMI lab John Innes Centre. Come and work with on harnessing the diversity of immune mechanisms to protect plants. jobs.jic.ac.uk/Details.asp?va…

Chai Discovery (Joshua Meier Chai Discovery) just released Chai-2, a model for "zero-shot antibody design in a 24-well plate." The most existing result? Chai-2 successfully generated binders for 50% of the 52 targets they assayed (100x better than SOTA)! Some thoughts below:

New preprint led by Sonja & Ines! We report a chromosome-scale genome assembly, transcriptomic comparison, and biophysical analyses in the Venus flytrap Dionaea muscipula, which together reveal a cell-wall defect in the DYSCALCULIA mutant. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

SO excited to share that I’ve been awarded a grant from O'Shaughnessy Ventures to develop a genetic toolkit for flower design! Here was my 1-minute pitch. To everyone who’s supported my art over the years, thank you. So much to come 🌹✨

Kudos Chih-Hang Wu et al! Cell biology at its best applied to an important question!

Massive #NLRbiology paper drop by Yi-Feng Yi-Feng Chen Chih-Hang Chih-Hang Wu and colleagues 👏 "Single-cell-resolved calcium and organelle dynamics in resistosome-mediated cell death." doi.org/10.1101/2025.0…

Cell-type-specific execution of effector-triggered immunity Our new preprint is now online, 1 July⬇️ Grateful to an incredible team: Himanshu Chhillar Leonardo Jo Amey Redkar Kaisa Kajala Jonathan D G Jones Affiliations: Universiteit Leiden Utrecht University National Centre for Biological Sciences

【再掲】博士の方が修士より生涯賃金が高い。大規模調査の結果。 「博士課程に進学することで3年間分の逸失所得が発生するが、そのマイナスを折り込んだ上で、生涯を通じた所得はかなり多い」 「日本において博士課程進学は効果が高い人的資本投資で、特に女性において顕著」 rieti.go.jp/jp/columns/a01…

Unlocking gene regulatory networks for crop resilience and sustainable agriculture Our new review is now online Nature Biotechnology nature.com/articles/s4158… Great team work from Richalynn Xin, Bob Toshiyuki Sakai & Jorge A full-text view-only is accessible via

🧵 What if two images have the same local parts but represent different global shapes purely through part arrangement? Humans can spot the difference instantly! The question is can vision models do the same? 1/15

Today is my first day as an Assistant Professor NTU Singapore NTU School of Biological Sciences, after ten rewarding years working with my wonderful mentors Nick Talbot Dr. Wenbo Ma and colleagues The Sainsbury Laboratory
