Some have speculated that @OpenAI 's Sora was trained on @UnrealEngine 5. New work uses UE5 to render CryoET datasets with millions of molecules in complex biological scenes: What if we could put 2 + 2 together, and finetune Sora for biology viz?

Video and images are time and labor intensive to produce. When Sora was announced by @OpenAI , some of my favorite prompting requests – whether joking or not – were to visualize biological phenomena or objects like cells and proteins. 4/9

Fast grants have proven to be an important vehicle to accelerate scientific progress (e.g., during the pandemic). 🏃🏽 Few challenges are more deserving of this support than the climate. 🌎 Climate scientists, see below! 👇🏽 Kudos @sarakemppainen for spearheading this effort.

1/ Solutions to the climate crisis are already here. But they're stuck in academic labs. Often, after the basic science is done, there’s just a little more work needed to show the science has commercial potential. But no one funds this! Introducing Manifest Climate!

@paultkim_ipd Perhaps b/c much of wet lab biology expertise is gained by practical experience rather than textbook knowledge? Lower barrier to entry to try your hand at dry lab research.

It is no secret there exists a generalizability problem in AI for biology.  Despite all the advances in ML methods, the way we evaluate generalizability in ML models has not changed. How well does your ML model generalize across the entire spectrum of possible dataset splits?
