L'IA génère les premiers modèles complets de protéines en mouvement

Des scientifiques de l’EPFL ont utilisé un réseau de neurones pour créer des modèles à atomes complets de protéines, ainsi que les mouvements dynamiques qui régissent leur fonction. Cette approche globale, mais simplifiée, résout un problème majeur en biologie.

Scientists from the EPFL School of Life Sciences and the EPFL School of Engineering have used a neural network to create all-atom models of proteins, as well as the dynamic movements that govern their function. Their comprehensive yet simplified approach resolves a major bottleneck in biology.

Philippe Müllhaupt "enseigne à l'ancienne." Et cela semble fonctionner puisqu'il a été désigné meilleur enseignant 2025 de la Section génie mécanique.

C’est sa professeure de solfège qui lui a donné le goût de l’enseignement. Même s’il a rapidement abandonné la musique, il a conservé un goût intact pour la transmission des savoirs.

«En première année, on se pose des questions de grands scientifiques»

C’est la professeure de solfège de Philippe Müllhaupt qui lui a donné le goût de l’enseignement. Même s’il a rapidement abandonné la musique, le meilleur enseignant 2025 de la Section génie mécanique de l’EPFL a conservé un goût intact pour la transmission des savoirs.

Philippe Müllhaupt “teaches the old-fashioned way.” And it seems to work, since he has been named the best teacher in the Mechanical Engineering section for 2025.

He first learned to appreciate teaching thanks to his music theory professor. Although he quickly gave up music, he never lost his enjoyment of sharing knowledge with others.
