How Claude is uplifting biomolecular modeling

In this post, we share how Claude made the open-source models that scientists use to predict and design biomolecules faster and more memory-efficient. Claude, working within Claude Science, optimized more than 30 of these models in just under four weeks, speeding them up roughly 4x on average. It also created a low-memory mode that enables the accurate prediction of biomolecular systems larger than 10,000 tokens (amino acids, nucleotides, and atoms from small molecules and ions) on a single NVIDIA GPU node. We are open-sourcing all of the optimized code and announcing a protein design competition co-sponsored with Adaptyv Bio, backed by up to $1 million in Claude credits and wet lab validation for over 5,000 designs.

Artificial brains may need sleep too

No one can say whether androids will dream of electric sheep, but they will almost certainly need periods of rest that offer benefits similar to those that sleep provides to living brains, according to new research from Los Alamos National Laboratory. Watkins and her research team found that the network simulations became unstable after continuous periods of unsupervised learning. When they exposed the networks to states that are analogous to the waves that living brains experience during sleep, stability was restored.
