I've had an account at Meta prior to this announcement. The statement "Meta is a tool that helps researchers understand what is happening globally in science and shows them where science is headed" is not wrong, even though t

Yeah, even if it's just for researchers, I interpreted that as "free to search", but not that the platform or data (citation graph w/ metadata) would be open source.

"All of Biohub's findings -- along with everything that is studied in the Chan Zuckerberg Science initiative -- will be open source and available to all." [1] I wonder if this extends to Meta? [1] https://www.engad

I believe several papers have examined efficiently pruning neural networks, but neural death would be better branding ;) ( https://arxiv.org/pdf/1506.02626v3.pdf https://arxiv.org/pdf/1510.00149v5.p

I'm in this field so I'm quite familiar with the search/score situation, but thanks for clearly mapping out the challenge and identifying where you think neural networks will be most beneficial. I just think the particulars m

I like the idea, but I wouldn't call it "relative ease". Are we talking about making better force fields, or training a recurrent neural network for generative dynamics that obeys the laws of physics (can be used to calculate

How do you suppose the questions you've answered working on ion channels would be addressed with machine learning? I get the impression by "swept aside" that you feel the field of molecular biophysics is not meaningful in the

Savor some sensible discussion while you're in a small chat... I felt some strange camaraderie with the original group of people I started with. Then got a bit sad when they got lost in the crowd and dropped out over time.
