In the future, foundation models will become more accessible to every plant scientist, accelerating the pace of scientific discovery. @johninnescentre.bsky.social @slcuplants.bsky.social @newphyt.bsky.social nph.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epub/10....

Delighted to take part in the Gatsby Summer School as a speaker and tutor. Sharing how we're using AI in plant science, but the real highlight was meeting so many bright young minds genuinely excited about plant biology. @johninnescentre.bsky.social

Ever heard of foundation models but not sure where to start? 🤔 We wrote a review for RNA biologists, no AI background required 😊 Everything explained through RNA biology examples you already know 🧬 @yiliangding.bsky.social www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....

AI foundation models for RNA biology

RNA biology is undergoing a transformative revolution driven by AI foundation models. These models learn the intricate relationships between RNA sequence, structure, and function by training on vas...

We’ve built this virtual plant scientist PlantScience.ai to grow alongside human researchers🌿. It thinks like an expert, cites like a scholar, and never stops learning. Come and have a chat with it! @yiliangding.bsky.social @johninnescentre.bsky.social www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

I believe that with this powerful AI model, we can uncover more fascinating rules hidden within plant nucleotides. Thank the support from the @hfspo.bsky.social and @johninnescentre.bsky.social, thank for the support from Prof. @yiliangding.bsky.social. Prof Li, Prof. Zhang and other co-authors.
