Introducing Quine: An AI research system designed for the complexity of biology

Microsoft Research Blog · microsoft.com · By Nicolo Fusi, Jonathan M. Carlson · September 29, 2026

Biology doesn't operate in silos, and neither should the AI representation of it. Quine is an early-stage research effort to create a multimodal world model of biology. By connecting insights across biological scales and modalities, Quine helps scientists computationally search a space far larger than intuition allows and prioritize hypotheses before they reach the lab. Experimental results provide important feedback, helping researchers sharpen future research directions. The post Introducing Q…
