3/3 The test yielded a p-value of 4.91 × 10⁻⁸, which is far below the conventional significance threshold of 0.05. This indicates a statistically significant deviation in personality type distribution within the lab.

2/3 In contrast, within the Gerstein Lab, there are 26 Analysts, 20 Diplomats, 6 Sentinels, and 4 Explorers. A chi-square goodness-of-fit test was conducted to evaluate whether the MBTI distribution in the lab significantly differs from that of the general population.

1/3 Based on a survey of 22,678,145 individuals in the United States, the distribution of MBTI personality types in the general population is as follows: Analysts account for 16.72%, Diplomats for 44.43%, Sentinels for 23.91%, and Explorers for 14.93%

🧠 At our recent Gerstein Lab roster meeting, we took a detour into… personality science!

Turns out we’re INT Central 🧪
📌 70% Introverts
📌 83% Intuitives
📌 57% Thinkers
Analysts (INTP, INTJ) dominate, far more than the U.S. baseline.

4/4 ⚡ WANet + WALoss ⇒ 18 % faster SCF convergence & 1 000 × energy-error reduction vs. SOTA. One model, many properties—HOMO/LUMO, dipoles, electron densities—all from a single predicted Hamiltonian.

3/4 🗂️ First release of PubChemQH—50 k large-molecule Hamiltonians (40–100 atoms) for robust benchmarking, generated by 128 GPUs for one month of processing, which motivates a scaling challenge which we refer to as SAD.

2/4 🧩 We introduce Wavefunction-Alignment Loss + WANet, slashing SCF iterations while keeping ab-initio precision for molecules 3× larger than training data.

YouTube video by Jason Liu Digital phenotyping using AI for psychiatric disorders and genetics

We show wearable-derived digital phenotypes improve accuracy of predicting adolescents affected by psychiatric disorders using AI models for time series. This enables continuous GWAS to identify genetic variants missed by traditional case-control GWAS.
