AlphaFold2, a neural network-based model which predicts protein structures from amino acid sequences, is revolutionizing the field of structural biology. This lecture series will explain the protein structure problem and the detailed workings of AlphaFold2, along with many new results and directions for future research.
Lecture 1: protein structure prediction and algorithm space
Lecture 2: AlphaFold2 architecture
