📢 Conscience has released the results of CACHE Challenge #1, which aimed to predict "hits" for Parkinson's disease drugs through computational models. Conducted in partnership with The Structural Genomics Consortium (SGC) and funded by The Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson's Research, the challenge has yielded seven promising discoveries for familial Parkinson's disease. The CACHE Challenge has two key outcomes: firstly, new discoveries that can help advance novel treatments for Parkinson’s disease, and secondly, prospective benchmarking of multiple computational methods to reveal the state-of-the-art and guide future progress. Conscience has now made the entire experimental dataset of the CACHE Challenge available to the public, including the chemical structures of all the molecules tested and associated computational methods. #Conscience #CACHEChallenge #ParkinsonsDisease #DrugDiscovery #ComputationalModels #OpenScience

The landmark Human Genome Project took 10 years of unprecedented collaboration and $3 billion in investment to complete. It has since contributed significantly to advances in medicine and genomics, improving our ability to understand our world and shape our future. Today, a single genomic lab can achieve the same feat (sequencing an entire human genome) in less than a day and for under CAD $1,000. This presents remarkable opportunities for innovation. But is Canada making the most of our advantages in this area?

#Research | 𝗘𝗻𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗔𝗿𝗰𝗵𝗶𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗼𝗳 𝗚𝗲𝗻𝗲𝘁𝗶𝗰 𝗗𝗮𝘁𝗮 | Led by Dr. Deborah M Leigh from Eidg. Forschungsanstalt WSL, an international team of researchers has achieved a significant milestone in genetic data management. They propose standardized formats for different types of genetic and genomic data, along with the mandatory inclusion of extensive metadata, enhancing data accessibility for researchers worldwide. The research emphasizes the importance of archiving genetic data in these proposed standardized formats. By ensuring comprehensive metadata and adopting these standards retroactively for older data, the research aims to enable more accessible, equitable, and innovative use of genetic data on a global scale.

🌟 Your inside look of the latest foundational models in biotech and pharma 🌟 To keep up with the rapid acceleration of model development, we’ve created an interactive foundational model map for finding the foundational models for specific use cases. In the map, you can toggle between: - 7 key domains - 59 foundational models - 837 use cases Key domains we’ve covered: - Genomics and genetic analysis - Epigenetics - Single-cell and multi-omics analysis - Molecular structures and interactions - Discovery and biomedical applications - Imaging This map lets you organize foundational models by input and output types, such as molecules, sequences, and structure tables. You can utilize it to map use cases directly to the relevant models, providing a practical approach beyond mere semantic definitions of domains. Try it out yourself! 👇 https://lnkd.in/eQHwfhhV #biotech #research #dataanalytics
