Google DeepMind 与 Chan Zuckerberg 虚拟生物学倡议合作构建多模态数据集

Building predictive biology models is one of the most important scientific challenges of our time, but solving this requires new experimental biological data at an unprecedented scale.

I’m pleased to announce that @GoogleDeepmind is partnering with @ChanZuckerberg’s Virtual Biology Initiative to create the multi-modal datasets needed for improved predictive biology models.

I wrote recently about the need to discover how life works at many different scales, from DNA and individual proteins to living cells and whole-body health. As we learnt from AlphaFold and the Protein Data Bank, solving grand biological challenges will not be possible without high-quality open data and efforts like the @czbiohub initiative.
