AlphaFold rewired structural biology overnight and reshaped how scientists study life at the molecular level.\n\nSixteen months later, that milestone already feels like an early chapter.\n\nKey highlights.\n\n* Isomorphic Labs unveiled IsoDDE, an AI drug design engine built to run discovery directly on a computer, cutting timelines from years to months\n* More than doubles AlphaFold 3 performance on the hardest protein - ligand generalization targets\n* Up to 20x better than Boltz-2 on antibody and biologics benchmarks\n* Outperforms physics-based gold standards on binding affinity prediction, at a fraction of the cost and time\n* Identifies drug binding pockets from sequence alone, including sites that took researchers over 15 years to uncover experimentally\n\nThe Isomorphic Labs drug design engine unlocks a new frontier beyond AlphaFold.\n\nThis week, Isomorphic Labs released a technical report showing that its internal drug design engine has surpassed AlphaFold 3, the...",
