Junior B. 08ed713cc8 GPU plan: ephemeral serverless co-folding (Modal) + app skeleton
docs/gpu_plan.md: cost-efficient plan for running AF3-class co-folding
(Boltz-2/DiffDock) on a GPU then paying nothing when idle.
- Key insight: structure-track data is tiny (MB of PDBs/SMILES); only the
  GPU + model weights are heavy -> serverless is ideal.
- Recommend Modal (per-second billing, scales to zero = nothing to kill);
  RunPod as the SSH-box alternative with idle auto-terminate.
- Lifecycle: image -> weights Volume (cache, don't re-download) -> run ->
  git push small results -> teardown automatic.
- Phase 1 validate on 3 known binders (~$1) before paying for a screen;
  Boltz-2 (affinity) on an L4/A10 (24-48GB); est total ~$5-15.

gpu/modal_app.py: Modal app skeleton (image, weights volume, GPU cofold()
function, local entrypoint); boltz invocation stubbed with TODOs.

Reverso MVP — Sickle Cell Repurposing Pipeline

A minimum viable drug repurposing pipeline for sickle cell disease: build a disease signature from public transcriptomic data, build drug profiles for ~300 small molecules, and rank them by CMap-style connectivity scoring. Validated by a recovery test — do the two known sickle cell drugs (hydroxyurea, L-glutamine) rank near the top?

See PLAN.md for the full specification, locked decisions, and week-by-week build plan.

Quickstart

# Requires Python >=3.11,<3.13 (see note below)
pip install -e .            # or: pip install -e ".[dev]" for test/lint tooling
pytest                      # run unit tests

Python version note: use Python 3.113.13 (python3.13 -m venv .venv). Python 3.14 is not yet supported by all pipeline dependencies (pydeseq2, cmapPy).

Project layout

data/         raw (downloaded, never edited) / processed / results — gitignored
notebooks/    01..05, run end-to-end in order
src/          identifiers, disease, drugs, scoring, provenance
tests/        scoring unit tests
docs/         recovery_test_report.md, data_sources.md, known_limitations.md

The deliverable

When complete, the artifact to share is three files:

  1. docs/recovery_test_report.md — the 2-page write-up
  2. data/results/ranked_candidates_v1.csv — the ranked drug list
  3. The signature + drug profile files with provenance

Pipeline

Notebook Stage Output

05_recovery_test.ipynb Validation docs/recovery_test_report.md

Every persisted artifact carries a confidence tier (A/B/C) and provenance. See PLAN.md §3.
