AlphaProtein NovoGoogle DeepMind

The released pipeline makes a demanding protein-design workflow inspectable: it conditions a diffusion model on catalytic motifs and ligand context, then connects sequence redesign, AlphaFold 3 structure prediction and evaluation in an end-to-end run. The associated preprint reports experimental enzyme-design campaigns, but the repository is especially valuable because it exposes the manifests, examples, evaluation stages and terms needed to distinguish an executable method from a launch claim.

The role of central banks in managing financial crises in times of rapid changePablo Hernández de Cos, Bank for International Settlements

The BIS General Manager frames high public debt and leveraged non-bank finance as a joint problem for future crisis response: sovereign-yield moves can mix fiscal repricing with forced deleveraging, while asset purchases risk being read as fiscal support. The full speech earns the time because it works through the backstop trade-offs, congruent regulation and facility design rather than treating liquidity support as a costless cure.
