Allison Berke makes the case for real-time DNA sequencing and AI tools to detect pathogens before they spread widely. Reading DNA The first step in detecting a novel pathogen is recognizing it as an anomaly amidst a noisy background of other material. After copying the DNA to form a big pool, each piece is sequenced.

Reaching cruising altitude: New discovery tools to target RNA

Dark Matter Blog

The majority of small molecule drugs induce their therapeutic effects by seeking out and binding to their intended target while avoiding most other molecules in the dense milieu of the cell interior. Our overall mission at Arrakis is to expand the set of “druggable” targets for small-molecule medicines to include RNA.
