Can transformers follow instructions? We explore this in: "Looped Transformers as Programmable Computers" arxiv.org/abs/2301.13196 led by Angeliki (Angeliki Giannou) and Shashank (Shashank Rajput) in collaboartion with the Kangwook Lee and Jason Lee Here is a 🧵

Consider these fantastic opportunities in #Lausanne if you're into ML for Biomedicine and are looking for a PhD, PostDoc or master thesis! I can speak from experience and it has been super inspiring to work with Marianna Rapsomaniki!

Some news on my side 🎉 I will join Wageningen U&R as an assistant professor in September. My research remains at the intersection of bioinformatics and cheminformatics and I will focus on applications contributing to pharmacology and sustainability in (bio)chemical synthesis and ag.

This was done mostly by Mayk Caldas and Chris Collison - congrats on huge effort! We wrote for both newcomers to LLMs in chem and for experts. Mayk Caldas also set-up a repo for continuing to track the field! Paper: arxiv.org/abs/2407.01603 Repo: github.com/ur-whitelab/LL…

Friends, as the saying approximately goes: "Fortune favours the bald" 👴 👉 My proposal "HOLES: Higher-Order Learning of Essential Structures with Geometry and Topology" was successfully funded with a 1.5M € European Research Council (ERC) Starting Grant! 👈 🤯🤯🤯 This will allow me to pursue



Have a look at the latest preprint, spearheaded by Yves Gaetan, w/ Matteo Manica IBM Research — it introduces LM-ABC, a language model assistant for biocatalysis 👇

Chemists often combine many different techniques to elucidate structures. Adrian Mirza has been building a system that mimics this using machine-learning models and genetic algorithms.

Great news to conclude 2024! I couldn’t think of a better team than the ones and only narf42 and Robert Pollice to work on this exciting project. 🚀 Cool times ahead for the collaboration between TU Eindhoven and University of Groningen!
