We're sharing the AlphaFold code on github and describe its details in @Nature today! Happy folding! :)
Last year we presented #AlphaFold v2 which predicts 3D structures of proteins down to atomic accuracy. Today we’re proud to share the methods in @Nature w/open source code. Excited to see the research this enables. More very soon!

It's been great to discuss our work with @hannahkuchler at the @FT!
"Simon Kohl, a scientist who helped build DeepMind’s protein prediction programme, which won the company’s co-founder a Nobel Prize, has raised $50M to launch a startup to discover new drugs." We’re grateful for the incredible response to our mission. Thank you @FT, @HannahKuchler & @Melissahei for the coverage - this is just the beginning.

I still fondly remember tracking down tensorflow bugs with Simon while we were building AlphaFold2, very exciting to see how far things have progressed. Keen to see the amazing work @Latent_Labs will do!

Working with John and the AF2 team has been an incredible privilege and we celebrated the achievement in style in Stockholm - including a christmas tree formation fly-over across the Swedish Royal Palace.

Fantastic to celebrate the Chemistry Nobel Prize with Demis, John and all the friends on the AlphaFold team this Wednesday night! 🥂
“Congratulations to John, the #AlphaFold team, and everyone at DeepMind & Google that supported us along the way - it’s an amazing award for all of us! It’s such an honour and privilege to work with all of you to advance the frontiers of science.” - @DemisHassabis Find out more about the Nobel Prize and AlphaFold’s impact →
