Our Systema framework for evaluating genetic perturbation response prediction methods is now out in @natbiotech.nature.com β¨
Systema helps to evaluate perturbation response prediction methods by focusing on perturbation-specific effects rather than systematic variation π―
Very excited to announce that the single cell/nuc. RNA/ATAC/multi-ome resource from ENCODE4 is now officially public. This includes raw data, processed data, annotations and pseudobulk products. Covers many human & mouse tissues. 1/

Thrilled to share LUNAπ β our new generative AI model that reassembles tissue structures from dissociated cells! LUNA learns spatial priors over existing spatially resolved datasets with the aim to predict cell locations de novo.

π₯ Excited to introduce Bacformer π¦ - the first foundation model for bacterial genomics. Bacformer represents genomes as sequences of ordered proteins, learning the βgrammarβ of how genes are arranged, interact and evolve.
