🔬 More #SciComm! 🔬

This week’s figure shows how severe mental disorders affect the entire body.
🧠 While these disorders are known for their impact on brain functioning (blue), patients are also disproportionately affected by physical diseases (red). Details 👇!

🔬 Hello, BlueSky! Time for some more #SciComm! 🔬

Last week’s (procrastination 🙈) figure illustrates the frequency spectrum of genetic risk factors for Schizophrenia: common variants (blue), protein truncating variants (red), and copy number variations (green). More 👇!

🔬 Hello, BlueSky! Time for some #SciComm! 🔬

This week’s figure illustrates the onset and progression of schizophrenia, integrating symptom intensity (blue line), environmental and genetic risk factors (red boxes), and key disease milestones (white boxes) as they unfold across age.

Bayesian Illumination has been accepted at the ICML ML4LMS workshop! More updates to come!

🚀 Excited to announce that "Bayesian Illumination: Inference and Quality-Diversity Accelerate Generative Molecular Models" is now available! Key takeaway: Bayesian Illumination is 100x more effective than either genetic algorithms or deep generative models. 📊
