Biohub leads $1.8B cell AI model effort

Biohub, the nonprofit backed by Mark Zuckerberg and Priscilla Chan, is coordinating a $1.8 billion effort spanning data, lab equipment, and compute to build AI models that predict cell behavior, Reuters reports. Commercial funders get one year of exclusive access to the data they paid for before it goes public, according to Biohub research lead Alex Rives; government-funded work will be available without those restrictions. A first dataset should be ready in about a year.
