As a bioinformatician, it doesn’t get more exciting than this! Scaling to 1T+ genes isn’t just collecting more data. It demands new algorithms, infrastructure, and abstractions for complex biology. Excited to be working with an incredible team to push the boundaries of sequence informatics.
We’re launching the Trillion Gene Atlas with Anthropic, NVIDIA, PacBio, and UltimaGenomics. 🌍 The Goal: To expand known genomes 100×, sequencing 100M+ species to build foundation models grounded in evolution itself. 🔗 Read more: www.prnewswire.com/news-release...
