Keynote Address: John Jumper

In his keynote, “Predicting the universe of biomolecular interactions with artificial intelligence,” Dr. John Jumper walked attendees through the evolution of the AlphaFold project.
Jumper shared insights into the technical and conceptual milestones behind each generation of AlphaFold, including innovations like rawMSA masked language models, Evoformer modules, and the importance of self-distillation. He emphasized that no single breakthrough carried the project; instead, AlphaFold’s success came from a steady accumulation of improvements and a methodology rooted in biological intuition and empirical iteration. AlphaFold 3 now aims to extend the success of its predecessors, building on the insights gained from earlier versions.
If you missed it—or just want to watch it again—the full keynote will be available in the ISMB/ECCB On-Demand Library within 24 hours.
