I feel like crap. I didn’t get any grants this year, so I had to let go of my super talented postdoc—someone with a doctorate who’s now unemployed, without benefits or retirement, and still grinding away on a paper... Postdocs are the most unappreciated and undervalued positions…

But I am keen to update preprints continually even after the useless but mandatory journal publication with extensive case studies of successes & failures OR update the preprints to link to other studies (our or others) that show success & failure cases. 3/3

One of the things we have been actively aiming to improve in our science & publications is extensive analysis of failure modes of our own models AND exposing this honestly & exhaustively in our preprints. 1/

it’s an exciting time for mathematics (and science broadly)!

I firmly believe we are at a watershed moment in the history of mathematics. In the coming years, using LLMs for math research will become mainstream, and so will Lean formalization, made easier by LLMs. (1/4)

Thrilled to share that I’ll be joining @UCLA as Professor in July 2026! Grateful to my amazing students, postdocs, colleagues @UCR, collaborators, and mentors. A new chapter begins, advancing #compchem, #AI to explore #RNA, #DNA, #CRISPR, and emerging directions in #Biophysics.

The UCLA Department of Chemistry & Biochemistry is excited to welcome world-renowned computational biophysicist Prof. Giulia Palermo @palermo_lab, who will join the @UCLA faculty as a Full Professor on July 1, 2026! chemistry.ucla.edu/news/welcoming…

At CELL, we plan to structure the consortium around focused working groups and fast-moving swarms. Details are in the link below. Tell us where this model works, where it breaks, and how to improve it. Your feedback will directly shape the future of open science.…

Biological intuition seduces us with language like “gene expression space” or “metabolic state space,” but these are conceptual shadows. What lives in the notebooks of molecular biologists is not yet a space in the mathematical sense. The CELL initiative demands we be precise: a…

Can't wait to dig deep on this. Invariably I just love everything that comes out of Prof @AnimaAnandkumar lab and team! Will be writing soon on how this effort may port into what we are building at CELL /cc @CellBioSF

Good point. My first paper was on time travel in the Gödel universe. ML was easy to pick up after that :) journals.aps.org/prd/abstract/1…

Absolutely the right take. People have wrongly complained about places like Harvard CS having “too much theory” forever. Turns out if you get the theory it’s not that hard to apply it. The reverse is not true. That + a culture of students working on side projects with their…
