For anyone interested in where virtual cell is going - this is a very timely and landmark piece of work. A few take aways: - Data matters! 💾 High quality, unified datasets like Tahoe100M vastly improve model performance - Embeddings are getting good enough for tasks 🔨 - with

I f*** love this. And to put even more momentum behind this awesome movement by our Arc Institute friends: 🥁Tahoe Therapeutics will give $25K to the best model that is also open-sourced with weights on Hugging Face for everyone's use! + maybe a mention on X by clem 🤗? ;)

Completely agree. Pre-training on quality data for the first time allows for context generalization - > an important milestone in Virtual Cell Not all data is created equal! 🖥️🧬

Today, NIH announced a new policy to cap how much publishers can charge NIH-supported scientists to make their work publicly accessible. This reflects our broader effort to restore public trust in public health by creating an open, honest, and transparent research atmosphere.

We love it when others build dev tools for building on Tahoe-100M. Today, we highlight scDataset in our Tahoe Therapeutics blog. Developed by Davide D'Ascenzo & Sebastiano Cultrera di Montesano, it makes it easier to train DL models on datasets with the daunting scale of Tahoe-100M (see poster in ICML '25)

2/N We evaluated our models on the 2025 IMO problems under the same rules as human contestants: two 4.5 hour exam sessions, no tools or internet, reading the official problem statements, and writing natural language proofs.

On the floor of NYSE for AI x BIO 2025! Thanks Amee Kapadia Pablo Lubroth for the awesome energy and hosting such a talented crowd. 🧬🚀 Nima Alidoust

Tahoe Therapeutics is one of The Future 50. Thanks Mario Gabriele and The Generalist for including us. Why they chose us? “Tahoe Therapeutics has succeeded in generating biological data on an internet scale to power the next generation of drug discovery.”

Here we go, Tahoe-1B+! 🚀🌕 Our Series A Announcement 😀

I think it is worth talking about the 1 Billion cell milestone. This is not because 1Bn is a large and round number (or at least not entirely)! These number of cells, with the rich perturbative type of data that Tahoe Therapeutics's platform generates, puts the number of training tokens

It's awesome to have the word out for Tahoe's Series A. Nima Alidoust and Johnny Yu are a killer CEO/CSO technical founder duo. Hani Goodarzi and Kevan Shokat are both incredible scientists. It's a dream team. The scale of ambition to go after 1 *billion* cells across a wide range of

Financing news! Excited to share that Amplify Partners has led a $30M financing for Tahoe Therapeutics - the latest project in our growing digital biology portfolio. Rigorous science + powerful computing will shape the next decade of drug development, and Nima Alidoust, Johnny Yu,

Ask any scientist about curing cancer and you'll get mixed signals. Good news: cancer death rates have dropped dramatically over 20 years. Bad news: 95% of cancer drugs still fail in clinical trials.

it’s a pretty heady time in AI, but fundraising is not core business progress. It can serve as a constant distraction — do not let it be only validation that counts in the end- customer love, fat margin, then ring that bell in the public pen

Vega Shah Now I’m even more proud we raised a pre seed in 2024. Glad our supporters will benefit from that down market boost! These times separate the “Hey let’s start a company” from the “We can’t NOT start this company”.

If you *only* used SAT to admit to elite colleges, share of admits from top 1% income falls 15.8% → 9.9% and representation from <$200k rises by +8.8%, with no reduction in post-college outcomes. It's 'holistic review' and 'ban SAT' policy that allows the most wealthy and

Elon Musk on why he slept on the Tesla factory floor for 3 years “I was living in the factory in Fremont and the one in Nevada for three years straight. That was my primary residence. I’m not kidding. Literally. I slept on a couch, and at one point a tent on the roof, but for a

Taxpayer $ that were supposed to support SF are being stolen and misused by unaudited nonprofits. I pay my taxes and don't begrudge doing so— a vibrant public infra including public schools gave me a big boost in my life. What we can't stand is rampant waste fraud and abuse.

So ⁦Daniel Lurie 丹尼爾·羅偉⁩ here are the crazy salaries at the mid-management heavy ⁦SFMTA⁩ — over 100 execs are making $200,000 to $350,000 in just salary. SFMTA has 1,000 employees making $165,000-$350,000 in just total salary. Maybe start cutting those before taxes.
