Study of genomes and their variation, including how differences in DNA sequence translate into molecular and clinical consequences.
The Wellcome Sanger Institute and F1000 plan to raise Tree of Life genome-note publication from about 30 to 200 a month. Software scores each note and open peer review follows publication, a combination indexers such as PubMed have approved.

Anthropic says Claude found a CRISPR-like repeat array beside a reverse transcriptase gene in a bacteriophage, function unknown. The company's researchers say they have no idea yet what it does, so the finding is a lead for lab validation.
Reality
Anthropic ran about 950 Claude agents for 21 hours on 210 million tokens to cut over 200,000 reverse transcriptases to 20 lab candidates. Human scientists kept the bench work, so lab capacity sets how fast those leads get tested.

AlphaGenome Atlas answers every possible one-letter question in the human genome in advance, roughly a petabyte of predictions. Noncommercial access opened Tuesday, commercial use waits on Google Cloud, and the launch write-up carries no accuracy number.

The AlphaGenome Atlas replaces a compute-heavy programming interface with a browser lookup for every possible single-base change in human DNA. The evidence that its impact score flags disease-linked mutations sits in two preprints.
Reality
Academics get all 9 billion single-base predictions through a browser at no cost, while commercial users wait on a Google Cloud licence whose terms DeepMind has not published, including for its own sister company.
