Stanford Evo 2 AI model generates phages against E. coli

Stanford researchers have synthesised nearly 300 phages from DNA sequences produced by the Evo 2 generative AI model. Laboratory testing narrowed the group to 16 phages that showed particularly strong E. coli-killing activity. The work centres on bacteriophage ΦX174, pronounced “FYE-ex-1-7-4”. Brian Hie, an assistant professor of chemical engineering and Dieter Schwarz Foundation Stanford Data […]
