TLDR
Adaptyv announced a partnership with Anthropic to challenge participants to use AI to design potential drug candidates. It says the competition will feature five challenges, each focused on a disease or biological mechanism. The partners are sponsoring over $1 million in experimental validation, with Anthropic providing an additional $1 million in Claude credits. According to Adaptyv, entry and lab testing will be free. Three tracks will serve expert protein designers, with up to 20 teams selected; life science academics and industry researchers; and anyone from tech enthusiasts to high-school students.
