Our approach to bioresilience

Today, Google DeepMind and Isomorphic Labs are sharing our joint approach to bioresilience.

Key points

  • The global biosecurity landscape is rapidly evolving.
  • We need frontier AI models, and the scientific advances they will enable, to respond to these challenges and help make society more resilient to events like future outbreaks.
  • Breakthroughs like Google DeepMind’s AlphaFold, which mapped the 3D structures of nearly all known proteins; Isomorphic Labs’ AI-powered Drug Design Engine (IsoDDE), which provides the real-world accuracy required to navigate novel biological systems with unprecedented precision; and AlphaGenome, which sheds light on genome function, are radically shifting the balance.
  • To support government bodies and non-profit organizations during novel outbreaks, Isomorphic Labs has established a focused unit to rapidly deploy its drug design engine to design medical countermeasures that could address both naturally occurring pandemics and potential risks arising from the misuse of advanced AI.
