In biology, what does the term tidal volume mean?... Why is REM sleep called "paradoxical sleep"? In your answer, describe 3 reasons why REM is "paradoxical," then describe one theory as to the purpose of REM sleep. Describe the life cycle of the...

It’s math—a hell of a lot of math. Nobody disputes that. But is itjustthat, or does this complex math encode algorithms capable of something akin to human reasoning or the formation of concepts? Many of the people who answer yes to that question believe we’re close to unlocking some...
according to the biology terminology websiteBiology Online. The thylakoids are stacked on top of each other in columns known as grana. In between the grana is the stroma — a fluid containing enzymes, molecules and ions, where sugar formation takes...
This move might be driven by techbio startups, where we have seen the first foundation models built on such ML-purpose-built assays for structural biology with e.g. ATOM-1. Andreas Loukas (Prescient Design, part of Genentech) 🔥 What are the biggest advancements in the...
The algorithm YOU DESIGNED IS ‘optimised’ for pollinators, rather than humans. What does that mean exactly? Pollinator Pathmakeris a search for empathy for other species. How can you encode empathy into an algorithm?! I decided to define empathy as supporting as many pollinator species as po...
AlphaFold 2 is a triumph of Geometric ML and a paradigm shift in structural biology. The possibility to predict the 3D folding structure of a protein was hypothesised in the 1970s by the Chemistry Nobel Prize winner Christian Anfinsen. It turned out a very hard computational task, a Holy Grai...
To reproduce a model's actions, you must encode the information and keep it in memory so that you can retrieve it. A simple verbal description, or a vivid image of what the model did, assists retention. (Memory is such an important cognitive process that we devote the chapter "Memory" ...
Is it a piece of code that the average user can actually run? What are AlphaFold 2’s shortcomings? And, most important of all, what will it mean for computational biology? And for all of us? In this commentary, which aims to be a continuation ofmy blog post from eight months ago, ...
