Yeah.
technology is easier than biology.
How much of this is the fact that like, you know, you talk about, you know, we speak biology poorly or with a very thick accent?
How much of this is like if you're training on an image, we can see the image and so we can see how, you know, how good the output is.
What about all the things in biology that we can't see or don't even know exist yet?
Like how how can we create a virtual cell?
And maybe we should come back to the what a virtual cell model is, by the way, for the lay audience, but like how can we create a virtual cell model when we're not even sure if we understand all of the components that are in a cell and how they function?
So it's a low pixel image, but if we can get sort of zoomed out far enough, we'll get a sense of what's going on.
Yeah, the community.
So if the goal is I'm to oversimplify it for you, like if we wanted to get to the alpha fold the moment where, you know, it kind of gives you a a useful structure, folded structure ninety percent of the time to use your your data point.
We wanted to take that uh comparison in the in the virtual cell model.
And we said, okay, ninety percent of the time, if I ask the model, I wanna shift the cell from cell from cell state A to cell state B.
And it's gonna give me a list of perturbations.
And let's say that at ninety percent of the time those perturbations in fact result in the shifting experimentally in the shifting from cell state A to cell state B.
How far away are we from that alpha fold moment for virtual cells?
By the way, you talk about textbooks as ground truth.
Do you think we're gonna find that a lot of the textbooks are wrong?
our understanding of a complex system.
Right,
Yeah, I think that makes sense, right?
