Oct 16, 2026 🎉 Honored to be recognized as a Top Reviewer at NeurIPS 2026!
Apr 7, 2026 🎉 Our work CAML (A Conflict-Aware Molecular Language Model Merging Framework for Multi-Constraint Molecular Generation) was accepted by ACL 2026 (Main Conference, Long Paper)! It links language-model parameter composition to generated molecular properties and jointly controls four predicted properties without further model training. ** The published paper is available.
Apr 1, 2026 Our multidisciplinary manuscript, “AI Identifies Compounds that Protect Retinal Ganglion Cells and Optic Nerve in Neurodegeneration by Alleviating ER Stress,” studies an AI-driven screening pipeline using ImageMol to identify neuroprotective candidates targeting endoplasmic reticulum stress, with potential relevance to glaucoma. Nature Communications · Under review: major revision.
Mar 1, 2026 🚀 Historical code release: our earlier work, “Multi-objective generative algorithm enables broad-spectrum antibiotic derivatization,” was open-sourced. This announcement is retained as a historical record; see the current publication and manuscript list for up-to-date titles and submission statuses.
Feb 21, 2026 🎉 Our work STEPH (Sparse Task Vector Mixup with Hypernetworks for Efficient Knowledge Transfer in Whole-Slide Image Prognosis) was accepted by CVPR 2026. It studies efficient knowledge transfer for whole-slide image prognosis. ** The published paper and code are available.
Dec 7, 2025 🎉 Our paper “Self-supervised Blending Structural Context of Visual Molecules for Robust Drug Interaction Prediction” was accepted by NeurIPS 2025! The work uses molecular images for robust drug–drug interaction prediction. Published paper.
Feb 25, 2025 🎉 Our paper “Multi-Objective Molecular Design Through Learning Latent Pareto Set” was accepted by AAAI 2025! We propose a novel framework to approximate the entire Pareto set, empowering researchers to fine-tune molecular properties with ease. 🧪✨ Code
Aug 30, 2024 🎉 Our paper “DeepAMP A Foundation Model Identifies Broad-Spectrum Antimicrobial Peptides against Drug-Resistant Bacterial Infection” is published in Nature Communications! In this study, we developed deepAMP, a peptide language-based deep generative framework designed to expedite the discovery of potent, broad-spectrum antimicrobial peptides (AMPs). By employing a novel sequence degradation strategy and multi-stage fine-tuning, we identified 29 high-potential candidates. These peptides proved effective in treating P. aeruginosa skin wound infections in mouse models with excellent biocompatibility. Notably, the identified peptide T2-9 showed in vitro activity against E. coli matching that of the clinical antibiotic levofloxacin, with the same MIC of 2.93 μg/mL.
May 5, 2024 🎉 Our work HydrogelFinder (A Foundation Model for Efficient Self-Assembling Peptide Discovery Guided by Non-Peptidal Small Molecules) is accepted to Advanced Science. By leveraging non-peptidal small molecules to guide chemical space exploration, we’ve achieved a rapid 19-day workflow from generation to wet-lab validation. 🧪 Our model successfully identified 9 novel self-assembling peptides (1-10 amino acids), including the shortest lipid-peptide documented to date. PD-DP-008 (JIJ02), has entered Phase I clinical evaluation (CTR20250456).
