🔍 Limitations & Next Steps
Honest assessment and invitation for collaboration
Current Limitations
- Computational Resources: AlphaFold requires significant GPU memory (8GB+ recommended)
- Local Installation: Rosetta requires academic license or local compilation
- Validation Gap: In silico predictions need wet lab validation
- Expertise Required: Basic Python and bioinformatics knowledge needed
- Cloud Costs: Large-scale runs may incur cloud computing costs
Next Steps & Collaboration
