It’s been a tough few weeks. My 10yo daughter was diagnosed with a very rare, aggressive cancer called interdigitating dendritic cell sarcoma (IDCS). I’m reaching out to identify clinicians/patients who have encountered pediatric IDCS or other (non-LCH) dendritic or histiocytic sarcomas cases.

Sign up to get updates on our Ferment series ! Bunch of great events this year !πŸŽ‰πŸ§¬πŸŽ‰πŸ§¬

Headed to SLAS (Society for Laboratory Automation and Screening) in San Diego ! What lab automation do you find useful / innovative ? Let me know in comments and I'll check it out and post after SLAS. Ginkgo's new reconfigurable automation carts at booth # 2651 ! Come visit!

Join us for a pre-JPM happy hour on Sunday, January 12th from 4-7pm PT in Downtown SF (The Box SF, 1069 Howard St). Always fun to have a drink next to some robots :) Sign up here to grab a spot and join us! automation.ginkgo.bio/jpm-2025-hap...

2025 going to be a big year for biotech. Don’t sleep on the most important of all the tech :) Happy New Year everyone!! πŸ¦–πŸ§¬πŸŽ‰

Excited to launch public data sets on commercial treatments and human cell lines and making available to folks training AI models in biology. Please download below and play around ! We can also make custom sets for your cell line or perturbation of interest ! www.ginkgo.bio/resources/bl...

Made a biotech founders starter pack, DM me to be added! go.bsky.app/LWm8uPE

Any practicing scientists including Geneformer in your workflow? Just curious if starting to see scientists at the bench using models like this to explore possible experiments in silico before deciding what experiments to subsequently do in the lab. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

We need to speed up design-build-test cycles in bioengineering

Bluesky should kill the word limit, that did make twitter easier to use. Making threads is a lot of work πŸ˜›

Wowza the starter pack thing is an amazing idea. πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘ Great thread here of scientist starter packs

Started creating a synthetic biology starter pack. Still missing many so reply here if I forgot you or someone else. go.bsky.app/SjfpxTK #synbio

I made a demo notebook and recorded a video tutorial for how to use the AA-0 protein sequence model from Ginkgo AI In the PETase Mask Fill Challenge, we compare the performance of 3 different models for modifying a plastic-degrading enzyme foundrytheory.substack.com/p/the-petase...

Hey Bluesky! just posted on lab automation on X - will try it here too πŸ˜€ Arya Lipman asked "life sciences automation seems to only be working in limited use cases (unless I'm missing it) - companies have burned a lot of cash on robots that sit idle. what's next / where is the opportunity here?" 🧡
