Genomics initiative lead at @GoogleDeepMind. Models from our team: Enformer, AlphaMissense, and AlphaGenome.

Our AlphaGenome paper and models are out today! 🧬 I'm really excited to see how people use the model and build on top of it in their biology research🔬 Huge congratulations to the entire team!👏 Read the full paper and access the model: 📄 Paper: goo.gle/4bXlV6y 💻 Code: goo.gle/4k1xrzI

This a really exciting leap forward for genomic sequence to activity gene regulation models. It is a genuine improvement over pretty much all SOTA models spanning a wide range of regulatory, transcriptional and post-transcriptional processes. 1/

Excited to launch our AlphaGenome API goo.gle/3ZPUeFX along with the preprint goo.gle/45AkUyc describing and evaluating our latest DNA sequence model powering the API. Looking forward to seeing how scientists use it! @googledeepmind
