The best-supported RNA metagenomic result is 93.6% sensitivity for one UCSF assay, reported by its developers. A new Oxford nanopore validation found 51%. No study compares workflows prospectively against an adjudicated reference.
Seven published comparisons of DNA sequencing workflows for pathogen identification, from mock communities to patient specimens. None is an independent clinical validation of competing workflows.
ESMFold predicts atomic-level structure from a single sequence. No multiple sequence alignment, no database search, no Evoformer churning over homologs.
Basecamp Research's EDEN model trains on proprietary environmental metagenomics to design gene-insertion enzymes, antimicrobial peptides, and synthetic microbiomes -- all validated in the wet lab.
