During Thanksgiving break last year, our AI co-scientist team @GoogleDeepMind @GoogleResearch - @Mysiak @alan_karthi met Prof @jrpenades @CostaT_Lab of @ImperialCollege. They were nearing a breakthrough on how bacteria share resistance genes and proposed a test for our AI co-scientist: pose their exact research question to the system and see what it found. Today in @CellCellPress, we share the results. Paper link - cell.com/cell/fulltext/S0092…
