An antidote against the current fantasies of #VirtualCells from Jeremy Gunawardena: www.nature.com/articles/nbt... It is indeed true that what a cell is becomes of little importance in the enterprise, though I would argue that this is out of ignorance. A cell is more than the product of GRNs

It was really fun to talk with eisensteinium.bsky.social for his piece in @nature.com about #VirtualCells and #VirtualTissues.

Thanks for including #PhysiCell and joint work with @fertiglab.bsky.social & others!

Please do give this terrific piece a read!

‘Virtual cells’ aim to turn raw data into predictive models of biology
Simulations of biological systems could transform biomedical research, but researchers are still learning how to reproduce life’s complexity without drowning in data.

It's an exciting time at CZI as we work to leverage AI to deepen the scientific community's understanding of human biology. We are hiring for two new leadership positions that will shape and drive our efforts to build virtual cell models...

Turns out the way we usually pre-train foundational cell models adds very little information to the system - definitely not enough to make drug effect predictions work. Not what I've expected.

We are proud to announce our latest innovation: Virtual Sells!

We will sell our last shred of integrity and pride for virtually anything in order to hop on the next AI/Multimodal jargon bandwagon.

IC and SV Professor Charlotte Bunne has appeared on the popular Ground Truths podcast, hosted by pioneering biomedical researcher Eric Topol, to talk about the recently published paper “How to build the virtual cell with artificial intelligence: Priorities and opportunities.”

🧬 Are virtual cells coming.

CZI is investing hundreds of millions to build them. DeepMind is in, too.

Simulated biology could revolutionize research. 🚀

Can AI build a virtual cell? Scientists race to model life’s smallest unit
Several groups hope to develop artificial-intelligence models that can predict how cells behave.

We did some tests to see what's possible with #virtualcells today with all the headlines. Turns out what's available for #training is what really matters, not the assay. Like #AGI to #AI, what we have today is narrow #virtual #cells. But there is a path to generality.

What can Virtual Cells do for you today?
and what they can't - because the bottleneck is not computing power
