With the Rosalind Academic Plan, OpenAI’s model dedicated to the life sciences – which until now had been reserved for major companies such as Amgen and Moderna – is now becoming accessible to academic research teams.
OpenAI opened applications for its Rosalind Academic Plan on October 15. The life sciences labs of American universities can obtain up to 30 ChatGPT Business Standard positions offered for 12 months, with access to GPT-Rosalind — the model named in tribute to Rosalind Franklin — and Codex, in a shared workspace. The objective is to help researchers review the literature, use their data and write their analysis code.
Boxed access
GPT-Rosalind combines a model of reasoning with a "workbench" that orchestrates specialized tools in medicinal chemistry, genomics or laboratory manipulation assistance. So far, only major industrialists such as Amgen and Moderna, as well as some government partners, had access to it. The academic offer remains subject to a procedure of access of confidence: verification of the establishment, examination of the profile of the laboratory's managers and designation of a safety reference. The Principal Investigator files the application and validates the members.
Two notable limitations: API access is excluded, which prevents GPT-Rosalind from being integrated into automated processing chains, and the offer is currently limited to American universities. By default, search data is not used to drive OpenAI models.
