Hans has spent his career innovating at the forefront of life sciencesโ€”as CEO of @GrailBio , President and CEO of @JunoThera , and now President, Founder, and Board Co-Chair of @altos_labs . Few people have such a complete view of the challenges and opportunities across drug development and diagnostics. What excites us most is his belief, shared by our team, that AI is poised to revolutionize life sciences R&D. We look forward to learning from him as we build AI-native software for the life sciences. A heartfelt thank you to Hans for his supportโ€”weโ€™re lucky to have you with us on this journey.

We're thrilled to welcome John Kim as Founding Chief Scientific Officer at Kepler AI! John brings over a decade of expertise in computational biology and data infrastructure, most recently serving as Interim Director of Data and Bioinformatics Engineering at Xaira Therapeutics, where he architected enterprise-scale data platforms connecting AI generative design, experimental systems, and bioinformatics pipelines. During his six years at Foresite Labs, John was instrumental in launching and scaling bioinformatics teams across five portfolio companies, including building the foundational infrastructure for Sestina Bio (subsequently acquired). His technical leadership spans from early-stage platform development at GRAIL to pioneering Illumina's first single-cell RNA-seq computational framework. John holds a PhD from UC Santa Cruz and has contributed to high-impact publications in Science, Nature Communications, and PNAS. As Founding CSO, John will lead our scientific strategy to advance enterprise-grade AI agents that accelerate life science discovery through scalable, reproducible research platforms. Welcome aboard, John! Let's revolutionize life sciences research together.

๐Ÿงฌ From hours of data wrangling to insights in minutes The GEO (Gene Expression Omnibus) repository contains a goldmine of gene expression datasets from researchers worldwide. However, finding the right dataset, matching metadata, wrangling formats, and preprocessing typically consumes 80% of a researcher's time. ๐Ÿš€ With Kepler, you can now search, download, wrangle, preprocess, and analyze GEO datasets in a single, interactive conversation. Here's an example with human in the loop at every step: ๐Ÿ” Smart Search: Ask for "all RNA-seq datasets on HNF1A knockout cells" โ€“ Kepler finds multiple datasets and explains the pros/cons of each, waiting for user selection ๐Ÿ“ฅ Automated Processing: Select your study, and Kepler handles the heavy lifting โ€“ downloads data, performs QC, matches metadata, and finds the processed FPKM values in supplementary files ๐Ÿ“Š Instant Analysis: Differential expression analysis with visualizations generated automatically ๐Ÿ’ก Interactive Exploration: Ask follow-up questions anytime, get suggestions for deeper analyses Try Kepler for free today: getkepler.ai/

๐Ÿš€ GPT-5 is here โ€” and now live in @kepler_ai_ ! With the launch spotlighting medical research use cases, we were eager to see how it performed on our internal benchmarks of real bioinformatics research tasks. We are impressed - here are some highlights on one research task on CELLxGENE: - Stronger expert-level scientific knowledge โ€“ now looks out for finer scientific details like cell subtypes. - More intent-driven conversations โ€“ instead of guessing and rushing, it confirms key parameters (species: human vs. mouse, cell subtypes, disease filters, metrics to report) before diving in. Asks the users a bunch more questions. - Fewer coding mistakes โ€“ especially when using specialized scientific packages. - Butโ€ฆ questionable plotting choices. (Compact dot plot??)

Since TahoeDive on @kepler_ai_ launched a month ago we have seen an overwhelming positive response from the community, with hundreds of researchers around the world performing massively parallel analyses on the rich Tahoe-100M perturbation dataset. Results are already going into cancer biology publications! Request access if you haven't yet: tahoebio.ai/tahoedive At Kepler AI we are building enterprise-grade agents for biological data analysis, speeding up bioinformatics by 10x and allowing you to unlock novel connections in your data. We would love to learn more about your bioinformatics needs! Please book a demo at getkepler.ai Thanks again to our friends at @tahoe_ai @iamjohnnyyu @nalidoust et al for this awesome collaboration!

๐ŸงตWhy Every Startup Will Be AI-Native โ€” or Die Trying. Over the past two months, we have contributed more than 1300 commits, encompassing over 1.3 million lines of code changes. This rapid development is a direct result of our foundation as an AI-native startup, where AI tools are integrated into every aspect of our workflow. We are sharing our experiences and learnings in the blogpost keplogic.substack.com/p/why-โ€ฆ Highlights below: - @DevinAI is already the #1 contributor in our repo by number of commits - And the frequency of commits is growing over time: - The quality is increasing as well - our success rate from creating Devin task to merging has increased from 20% to over 50% even when the type of tasks are getting harder. - As a result, our deployment frequency (number of frontend and backend builds) is growing rapidly

Itโ€™s still in beta and not yet general-purpose โ€” but weโ€™ve tested it against real use cases. Example: Last week, we published a blog where we used Tahoe-100M to discover new immunomodulators. ๐ŸŽฏ See thread: xitter.cf/nalidoust/status/19306โ€ฆ
๐Ÿงต1/ We @tahoe_ai just published a new post on the Tahoe blogโ€”a story of how we used Tahoe-100M, the worldโ€™s largest drug-perturbed single-cell dataset, to find compounds that upregulate MHC-I and make tumors more visible to the immune system. Hereโ€™s how ๐Ÿงฌ๐Ÿ”๐Ÿ‘‡

So we teamed up with Kepler AI @keplogic to build TahoeDive: A natural language interface that enables biologists to do analysis that requires a team of bioinformaticians: dig into Tahoe-100M โ€” and any datasets derived from it โ€” alongside key insights from the literature. ๐Ÿ”

Tahoe-100M has been downloaded 45K+ times by ML x Bio builders and bioinformaticians. But itโ€™s massive โ€” full of depth and richness โ€” and that makes it hard for the broader scientific community to โ€œtalk to the dataโ€ and uncover novel insights. ๐Ÿง

๐Ÿงฌ Biology has officially transitioned to the realm of big data and big models - Every week we hear about new exciting large-scale, high dimensional datasets and foundation models being released. But often times, โœจ scientific insights are still trapped behind: - โš™๏ธ complex compute environment configurations - ๐Ÿ›  specialized tools and formats - ๐Ÿ’ป programming & statistical knowledge. We asked the simple question - what if biologists can talk to the data directly? With Kepler, biologists can conduct ๐Ÿ“Š complex bioinformatics analyses with ๐Ÿ’ฌ natural language - in a seamless, scalable, and secure way. Learn more here: getkepler.ai/ We have a big announcement tomorrow, so stay tuned!
