🔬 Sometimes, the biggest breakthroughs in AI begin with better ways of observing biology.
A recent breakthrough from researchers at Biohub and UC Berkeley demonstrates exactly that. Their development of a laser phase plate significantly enhances the contrast of cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM), allowing scientists to visualize proteins and cellular structures that were previously difficult—or even impossible—to observe. Why does this matter beyond microscopy? Because every advancement in biological measurement improves the quality of the data we generate. And in

🚀 Anthropic's move into scientific discovery is much bigger than another AI product launch
With the introduction of Claude Science, Anthropic has signaled something profound: frontier AI companies increasingly see biology—not just software—as the next frontier for innovation. Beyond launching an AI workbench tailored for scientific research, Anthropic has also announced plans to pursue drug discovery for neglected diseases, marking a shift from building AI tools to actively participating in therapeutic discovery. This reflects a broader transformation in our indust
