Скачать или смотреть THE ALPHAFOLD REVOLUTION: How AI Solved a 50-Year Mystery in Seconds

For half a century, predicting how a protein folds into its 3D shape was considered one of the "grand challenges" of science. Today, thanks to AlphaFold, that 60-year backlog has been cleared in just a few years.

In this video, we explore how this AI revolution is unlocking the secrets of life's blueprint and paving the way for world-changing medical breakthroughs.

What we explore:

The 50-Year Challenge: Why determining a protein's 3D structure manually took decades of painstaking work, with scientists only solving 150,000 structures in 60 years.

An Astronomical Puzzle: A single protein can have more possible folding configurations than there are atoms in the universe.

The AI Revolution: How AlphaFold predicted the structure of nearly 200 million proteins—virtually every protein known to science—representing a 100,000x speed-up.

World-Changing Applications:

Vaccine Design: Helping researchers create more effective malaria vaccines.

Antibiotic Resistance: Designing new enzymes and proteins to kill antibiotic-resistant "superbugs".

Environmental Solutions: Developing enzymes to break down plastics and proteins to capture greenhouse gases.

Witness the moment biology became a "searchable" digital science.
