Reinforcement learning with experimental feedback (RLXF) shifts protein language models so that they generate sequences with improved properties @nathanielblalock.bsky.social @philromero.bsky.social www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

We are excited in the @philromero.bsky.social lab to share our new preprint introducing RLXF for the functional alignment of protein language models (pLMs) with experimentally derived notions of biomolecular function!

🎉Congrats to Chase on her new preprint! She developed OMEGA--a simple method for assembling custom gene panels for as little as $1.50 per gene. Big step forward protein engineering and design!🧬 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

My 1st NeurIPS was a wonderful experience - incredible to see so much research in protein design and reinforcement learning. Here are my favorite papers (and favorite places I got food in Vancouver 😋):
