I would say alphafold is to structure prediction as crispr is to gene editing.
Crispr did not solve gene editing either, but has been made accessible to the broad biochemistry and biology researchers to use.
Both similar impact and changed the field significantly.
- beanjuice 2y agoEntire fields are based upon the existence of crispr now, it demonstrated its impact. It has been 2? 3? years, people who were making papers anyway have implemented AlphaFold, it hasn't exactly spawned a new area.
