AlphaFold-based databases and fully-fledged, easy-to-use, online AlphaFold interfaces poised to revolutionize biology

Not only computational but also experimental biology. Thoughts on the future of data science niches in biology.

In a recent story I covered the release of the academic paper describing AlphaFold’s version 2 and its source code, and I showed you how scientists around the world were starting to apply the program to their favorite proteins through Google Colab notebooks, for free and without any hardware needs. These notebooks are…
