Shantanu Singh announced his departure from the Broad Institute after 15 years. A pioneer of image-based profiling — using computers to analyze billions of cell images as "soothsayers of biology" — he led a 70+ person lab and worked on JUMP, OASIS, and VISTA with pharma partners. His farewell letter reflects on building the field and hints at a new mission around accelerating science and true AI-science symbiosis.
