“A stunning advance on the protein-folding problem... a 50-year-old grand challenge in biology”. Amazing work by @DeepMind with great implications for biology and medical science.
Thrilled to announce our first major breakthrough in applying AI to a grand challenge in science. #AlphaFold has been validated as a solution to the ‘protein folding problem’ & we hope it will have a big impact on disease understanding and drug discovery: deepmind.com/alphafold-blog
Excited to share the latest research from our Pathology research team @GoogleHealth, published today in @JAMANetworkOpen!
Diagnostic study finds using an #AI-based assistive tool for the review of prostate biopsies was associated with improvements in the quality, efficiency, and consistency of cancer detection & grading. @davesteiner @cmermel @GoogleHealth ja.ma/38AB6C7

Holy hell, FDA Commissioner Stephen Hahn's grasp of statistics is alarming. A 35% reduction in mortality does NOT mean that if 100 people get covid-19 and are treated with convalescent plasma, then 35 lives will be saved.

A deep learning system for Gleason grading prostate biopsies demonstrated high agreement with expert urologic subspecialists (72%), significantly higher than general pathologists' agreement with the experts (58%) ja.ma/2OQ5FIS @GoogleHealth #PCSM #Pathology

So, I made a little animation trying to explain how herd immunity works.
When enough of the population has been vaccinated, a disease is no longer able to spread effectively, protecting even the unvaccinated. The percentage needed varies with the disease.
