Milad Alucozai spotlights Talus Bio's Ptarmigan-1: a 256-dimensional lookup model that screens trillions of compounds across the regulome and outperforms docking on STAT6 and KRAS G12C
Milad Alucozai describes Talus Bio's Ptarmigan-1, a model that maps proteins and small molecules into a shared 256-dimensional space to enable very fast, large-scale virtual screening across the human regulome without relying on static structures, and reports strong validation on STAT6 and KRAS G12C that suggest the model learned biological signals rather than memorizing data.
