Great to see our Google DeepMind Google AI AI co-scientist innovations (multi-agent idea generation tournament) ship fast with Google Cloud Agentspace! Incredible shipping momentum at Google! 🚢 Agentspace -cloud.google.com/products/agent… AI co-scientist - research.google/blog/accelerat…

Happy to share our Google AI Google DeepMind milestone of two nature publications today on Project AMIE - the art of the possible for empathic, conversational, diagnostic medical AI. AMIE exceeded Primary Care Physicians in a randomized comparison of simulated text-based

Does every scientist need an AI co-scientist? We sat down with José R Penadés & Tiago Costa, two Imperial College London professors putting @google's new 'AI co-scientist' tool to the test. How long did it take AI to solve the mystery they'd spent a decade trying to figure out? 🧵

Building on Articulate Medical Intelligence Explorer — AMIE, our research diagnostic conversational AI agent — today on the blog we share a first of its kind demonstration of a multimodal conversational diagnostic AI agent, multimodal AMIE. Learn more →goo.gle/42D0QcB

We are hiring! Cell Host & Microbe is growing our editorial team. Job details and application link are provided here: relx.wd3.myworkdayjobs.com/ElsevierJobs/j…

Good papers, like good wine, need maturing. I'm proud and thrilled to share our work on genomic epidemiology of K.pneumoniae in Valencia and differential transmission patterns of resistances, part of Neris García-González PhD thesis and the NLSAR consortium. go.uv.es/td8iL4c

Virtual Virology is back - our first ever phage session. Do join us...

It was great to speak to nature news w/ Ryu Tanno | 丹野 龍太郎 about AMIE’s progress: our research conversational diagnostic AI now reasoning accurately in multimodal medical dialogue - handling common issues like photos of skin lesions, clinical docs & labs. More steps to real utility

We describe why Hfq forms condensates in nitrogen starved E.coli by Josh McQuail and colleagues: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Exciting news! Our latest paper is out in Nat. Microbiol. Nature Microbiology We show that a sub-lineage of 7th pandemic V. cholerae has acquired mobile genetic elements packed with phage defense systems—rendering it multi-phage resistant 😳 ..... 1/3 nature.com/articles/s4156…

... including against 16 (!!) tested isolates of ICP1—the primary predator of pandemic V. cholerae🦠—as well as phage X29. In fact, this is one of few studies primarily focused on defense systems in their native bacterial host and mostly at native expression levels🤩.... 2/3

We’re excited to bring the phage-collection.org to #SummerScience at The Royal Society.org next week — showcasing our work on phage therapy and open science. Big thanks to James Gallagher for covering the project in the BBC News (UK). Read more here: bbc.com/news/articles/…

BBC News (UK) José R Penadés and I will be organising a summit Imperial College London CBRB Imperial Department of Infectious Disease on behalf of Fleming Initiative to bring together the UK and international community on phage biology & therapy soon. Watch this space James Gallagher

Today, Professor Donal Wall, University of Glasgow attended a pitch session as part of the Science, Innovation and Technology Committee's 'Under the Microscope' inquiry to explain why they should be interested in microbiomes.

So happy to share my work José R Penadés lab 🤩 We investigated the efficiency of HGT mechanisms in S. aureus🧬, finding that LT is the most efficient one, and that strains defective in immune systems🛡️act as gateways for inter-clonal complex HGT🔀 biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
