How hard was it to get the laser phase plate to work? Like “trying to hit a bullet with a bullet” hard, says Biohub scientist David Agard. Check out the latest episode of the Uncovered podcast from @cenmag.bsky.social.

Can science give you superpowers? Don’t miss Biohub Investigators @profhernandez.bsky.social and KC Huang at San Diego Comic-Con tonight! #SDCC

🚨 New preprint: We reprocessed 77k zebrafish RNA-seq datasets from across the global research community and found hidden viruses in 10% of them—including a fish virus whose proteins are 91% identical to human Influenza B—then built a generalizable pipeline. bit.ly/4vxFF72

7.5M people in the U.S. live with psoriasis. Many still struggle despite treatment. Our team combined AI + CRISPR to find overlooked biological pathways — then tested an existing asthma drug. It worked. This is frontier AI and frontier biology working together. 🧬 Learn more: bit.ly/44QSiyW

A Genome-Wide CRISPR Screen Reveals New Psoriasis TargetsBiohub researchers combined a genome-wide CRISPR screen with AI to uncover an unexpected psoriasis drug target: the receptor for oxytocin.bit.ly

Excited to be at #ICML 2026! We’ll share three papers on virtual cell modeling, single-cell data generation, and immune recognition. → Virtual Cells Need Context, Not Just Scale icml.cc/virtual/2026... → scLDM icml.cc/virtual/2026... → DecoderTCR icml.cc/virtual/2026...

🎉Congrats to the Remoscope team, 1st place winner of the Medical Device category of the Nebius AI Discovery Awards! Developed at Biohub, Remoscope is an AI-powered diagnostic platform that can rapidly image and analyze blood and other biological fluids to diagnose disease.

The deadline for this funding opportunity is fast approaching: applications are due July 16!

How do you track thousands of cells in complex systems, in 3D & over time? We are launching a Kaggle challenge to push the frontier of AI-powered cell tracking, building on advances like Ultrack & the DaXi lightsheet microscope from the @loicaroyer.bsky.social lab. bit.ly/4bfdzWE

What happens when physicists turn their tools on living systems? That's the question at the heart of the Physics of Life Symposium—and this year marks its fifth edition. Submit an abstract or register to attend by Aug. 14: bit.ly/4xJIPH7

The 2nd Chicago BioEngineering Conference (CBEC) is back — Sept. 17–18 in downtown Chicago! 🧬 Omics. Bioelectronics. AI × bio. A stellar speaker lineup. Two days of science that matters. Space is limited → register now: bit.ly/4vqlXLj

Cryo-ET gives unparalleled views of cellular structures, but targeted sample preparation by cryo-FIB milling has been a constraint. No longer! A new workflow yields close to 100% targeting success for centrioles & other small structures. Read the preprint ⤵️ www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

“The laser phase plate has the highest continuous light intensity in the solar system, outside of the inner regions of the Sun,” says physicist Holger Müller. Learn more about this landmark achievement in microscopy in @cenmag.bsky.social: cen.acs.org/analytical-c...

The laser phase plate is leveling up cryoEM so we can see biology like never before. Learn more: bit.ly/4vK9LVn

In a series of 3 papers and preprints, we’re thrilled to share with you the working laser phase plate. In collaboration with research led by Holger Müller at UC Berkeley, this is a huge innovation in imaging to make small and faint objects inside cells visible. bit.ly/4vK9LVn

Dubbed a “Swiss army knife” for biological imaging, MOSAIC’s development was led by Biohub Investigator @supgokul.bsky.social of @ucberkeleyofficial.bsky.social . Learn more about the microscope, and the “AI mind” he’s creating to make sense of all the data ⤵️

Hi-res microscopes give biologists petabytes of data. Scientists are creating an AI assistant to make sense of it. - Berkeley NewsAt UC Berkeley, high-resolution microscopes are generating images of cells and embryos day and night, collecting massive amounts of data to train an AI model for living biological systems.news.berkeley.edu

Better vitrification = better cryo-ET. We've opened an RFA for two-year grants to advance vitrification techniques for biological samples—welcoming applications from researchers in heat transfer, cryogenics, and materials science. Apply here: bit.ly/4uip6eJ

👀🔥 @nature.com on why releasing ESMFold2, ESMC, and ESM Atlas openly changes what's possible for the research community

Proteins are the machinery of life. Billions of their sequences have been cataloged—but the biology behind most is still unknown. Today we're releasing ESMFold2, ESMC and ESM Atlas to help change that. Open source, open to every scientist. biohub.ai/esm/protein
