Scientists at Stanford University and the Arc Institute used artificial intelligence to design 16 novel bacteriophages from scratch, marking the first time AI has created fully functional viruses. The…
A Stanford- and Arc Institute-led team reported in Science on August 6 that genome language models generated complete bacteriophage genomes, 16 of which proved viable in laboratory tests. The research…
Arc Institute opened pre-registration for its 2026 Virtual Cell Challenge, which will require AI models to predict gene-knockdown responses across multiple cell lines without task-specific examples, a…
Bay Area scientists are using artificial intelligence to study aging, aiming to predict biological age, detect early signs of age-related diseases, and identify factors for healthier longevity. Resear…
Arc Institute researchers released Omnii, a genome language model that predicts, designs, and interprets DNA sequences, outperforming existing models on variant effect prediction and RNA fitness. The …
