Each problem states how progress is verified and what counts as a contribution. Besides the problems curated here, the catalogue includes open conjectures from Formal Conjectures (with Lean statements), optimization constants and the AlphaEvolve problems.

Design enzymes from scratch that catalyse a chosen benign chemical transformation with natural-enzyme efficiency, and predict activity well enough that most designs work.
Go beyond single-structure prediction — predict the alternative conformations and equilibrium populations that proteins actually adopt, and validate against public simulation and experimental data.
