Data Infrastructure for Biology
- Latch is now SOC 2 Type II compliant! Our team, software, and procedures demonstrated best-in-class security and data privacy practices during the three-month independent audit, including penetration tests. Cloud security is rightfully a major concern for biotechs modernizing
00:00 - Today we are thrilled to announce the Latch SDK, an open-source toolchain that any bioprogrammer can use to define serverless bioinformatics workflows with plain python and deploy an equivalent no-code interface. Request access: latch.bio/sdk 🧵👇🏼 (1/N)
00:00 - Alphafold predicts a protein's 3D structure from its amino acid sequence. Latch (console.latch.bio) now allows any scientist to run Alphafold with just a few clicks and view the 3D output right within the platform.
00:00 - 1/ Today we’re excited to unveil latch.bio: an end-to-end CRISPR bioinformatics platform built on the cloud. We want to put the power of bioinformatics in the hands of every biologist. latchbio.substack.com/p/crispr-bioin…
- We are thrilled to announce a complete redesign of the Latch Platform! Our goal was to create an interface that would be more familiar for bioinformaticians while visually integrating with other software in their lab. LatchBio Me: the next-gen user interface for biocomputing.
- Today, we’re excited to release Latch Verified Bulk RNA-seq - a curated, end-to-end RNA-seq pipeline that converts FastQ files to count matrices, to differentially expressed genes, to top enrichment pathways. Run it now with a few clicks at latch.bio 🧵
00:00 - Just published a “Solutions” tab + 2 case studies to better reflect how our partners are leveraging Latch to accelerate their research. latch.bio 👇🧵 (1/N)
- Introducing Pollock: a single-cell browser for live transformations on massive datasets. - Browse, edit, or create annotations - Subcluster and re-do dim reduction - Visualize differential gene expression - Track all transformations and analyses Use it now! (⅛)
00:00 - It was great to host Sam Altman last night at the LatchBio HQ to talk to Stanford students about responsible building, challenging giants, and advancing humanity.
- Congrats to EvolutionaryScale for the release of ESM3, an LLM that uses sequence, structure and function to generate new proteins. The model is now on Latch for non-commercial use and gives the academic community access to their cutting-edge industrial research with a few
00:00 - Two Boston events coming up next week. In collaboration with @NucleateHQ and @bitsinbio. Whether you prefer a casual meetup or an intense hack day, we would love to see you there! RSVP to hang: partiful.com/e/hNKohX3w04RI… Apply to hack: gucjxnd0b2v.typeform.com/to/z1kTXNuD
- We are thrilled to announce that LatchBio is officially HIPAA compliant!⚕️Check out our Trust Center here: trust.latch.bio If you would like to learn more about HIPAA, how to sign a BAA, or hear more details on how Latch approaches data security, please let us know via
- How it started vs. how it's going 💁♀️ #SynBioBeta 2022 ➡️ 2023 Come stop by the booth for a product demo (and to check out the glow up✨)
