Check out @heatherkirkby our CPO in this great read.
Also... this photo (from many months ago) foreshadows me glued to Jes Ford’s monitor 2 wk ago as she walked me through incredible advances made with DL embeddings of CRISPR disease models. twitter.com/recursionpharm…

I bet at least a few of them are also having conversations around selling that data, if they are not already doing so.

I like it. I’m biased though. You could flip the sequence of phrases and add a question mark to make it less hype.

Lessons learned going into @a16z bio fund III and tips for building ML-bio companies with @JorgeCondeBio.
Sounds familiar, just sayin’. 😉

Thread highlighting bureaucratic bottlenecks limiting dx of Coronavirus. This is a big gap, every hospital should be able to test any patient with viral PNA. twitter.com/scottgottliebm…

Good thread. Couple thoughts here:
(1) quantity > quality. Not always, but often, students accumulate many superficial experiences for MD app.
(2) Low SES students already disadvantaged but can work hard and compete on grades, but we did not play violin since age 3.

Apparently @techreview will pitch your pre-seed startup for you if you send them a deck...
They’re good too, they even add touch of scandal to heighten the intrigue.

Also critical, along the way find 1. Exceptional peers that you can follow, learn from, emulate. 2. Mentors that believe in you and will shine light on next steps.
Sometimes these are same people.. @RecursionChris @zavaindar! 😉

Agree there will always be a significant degree of art and strategy in drug discovery. Building ML to (1) increase the accessible search space of biology and chemistry, (2) decrease the time spent running the same assays on 100s of iterations of each molecule.

20 yrs ago I had never taken a science class and had a <2.5 GPA at community college.
Today I have advanced degrees in science and medicine and work alongside the most technically adept team in biotech.

A few years ago I never could have imagined I would be sitting in Salt Lake City at a tech conference of thousands hearing about everything from revolutionizing medicine to cybersecurity to LGBTQ+ rights. Feels surreal and amazing. #SSTS20

Proud of our team for hosting the D&I track at #SSTS2020. So many great lessons and practical advice today I'm taking back to work and life. In the face of massive youth suicide rates in this conservative state, super impressed by @TroyWilliamsUT and @EqualityUtah progress. twitter.com/RecursionPharm…

Haha how about instead of click bait, we start a thread on drugs discovered using ML in the clinic!
@NimbusTx has put a couple drugs in the clinic based on @Schrodinger platform.
@RecursionPharma currently has a drug finishing up Ph1 and another prep for Ph2.
Others?
