Former Clare Hall PhD student @srijitseal.com has recently led a landmark collaboration between over 30 scientists to outline the essential pillars for using machine learning (ML) to predict chemical toxicity. Read more โฌ๏ธ www.clarehall.cam.ac.uk/news/dr-srij...
So, you want to replace animal models with AI? We spent the last two years collaboratively exploring AI for toxicology with 33 scientists from 14 leading pharmaceutical companies and 6 research institutes! ๐ American Chemical Society Editor's Choice! pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/...
We spoke to government experts from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) and thought leaders from academia, including the University of Cambridge, the Broad Institute of MIT, and Harvard. This unprecedented industry-wide effort outlines a unified framework for adopting AI.

Thank you for highlighting our work! Use DILIpred to figure out if your compounds have any DILI risk, with mechanistic features :D DILIPred was bulit with over 15k compounds and covers a large chemcial space!
Drug-induced liver injury (DILI) is a significant concern in drug discovery, in particular because it might only be observed late in large clinical studies. Dilipred is an interesting in-silico tool using variety of approaches to identify potential for hepatotoxicity. macinchem.org/2025/03/02/u...

In this work, Gang Liu introduces InfoAlign, a new approach for learning molecular representations from cellular response data, integrating features like cell morphology and gene expression.
By combining information bottleneck methods with context graphs, weโre able to extract minimal yet sufficient representations of molecules that lead to better predictions and generalization in downstream tasks like molecular property prediction and zero-shot molecule-morphology matching.

The next Cambridge Cheminformatics Newsletter, December 2024 Edition is out! Containing upcoming related events, news jobs and resources For details please see: www.drugdiscovery.net/2024/12/22/c... Have a good Christmas/Holiday period everyone! All the best and see you in 2025, Andreas
I did the experiment myself! Having an Android phone saves you 25% costs and the phone pays for itself in 10 Uber rides! Uber and other apps cost up to 30% more on iPhones than on Androids for the same orders. Donโt get me wrong, by all means buy an iPhone! Keep an Android on the side for orders ๐คช

Scientists, academics, researchers: Weโre excited to share that @altmetric.com is now tracking mentions of your research on Bluesky! ๐งช
There are already many articles for which there is more attention on Bluesky than on other comparable micro-blogging sites, meaning the academic community and the general public have clearly adopted Bluesky as one of its core places to disseminate and discuss new research. A Place of Joy.
