We've been working with @ForliLab to help speed up their search for potential COVID-19 treatments. Now, your GPU power can help, too! ibm.co/3cVDJQQ

The volunteer crowdsourcing program @WCGrid that you can actively join has identified 70 virtual compounds for their ability to engage #SARSCoV2. The collaboration between @ForliLab & @IBM will now screen these for potential #COVID19 treatments ibm.com/blogs/corporate-soci…

Project update from the #MappingCancerMarkers research team @KrembilRI: an upcoming, relatively small code change could have a big impact on the project’s ability to analyze markers for various types of sarcoma. ibm.co/36AnXYa

Evidence that networks trained w/ same data cluster together in weight-space for more complicated DS3 nets as it does for DS1/DS2 nets! Here are 500/ea examples of 8 different DS3 networks w/ weights reduced from 136k dims to 2 w/ UMAP. Note similar colors are clustered nearby.

I'm still really proud to have been able to donate my computing time to #Arecibo data via @EinsteinAtHome and @BOINCNetwork. Never got to visit but at least I could help in a small way.
I am sorry for the current problems, unfortunately the database server crashed - hardware failure. I can't say now when it will be running again. I will post any news I'll have.
