Single task, lightweight, short-context bp res. profile models often perform on par or outperform current large, multi task, long context models on counterfactual prediction. Much to do to improve.
Bonus: robust, efficient interpretation of syntax
Great collab with @jengreitz.bsky.social lab.
📢 new preprint alert: So so excited to share our analysis on the impact of common and rare variants on single-cell gene expression in blood, using WGS and scRNA-seq data from nearly 2,000 individuals and 5.4m cells as part of TenK10K phase 1 🧬 www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1...

What do GWAS and rare variant burden tests discover, and why?
Do these studies find the most IMPORTANT genes? If not, how DO they rank genes?
Here we present a surprising result: these studies actually test for SPECIFICITY! A 🧵on what this means... (🧪🧬)

Huge congrats to Anusri! This was quite a slog (for both of us) but we r very proud of this one! It is a long read but worth it IMHO. Methods r in the supp. materials. Bluetorial coming soon below 1/
Are you using any of our factor models, such as MOFA? 🛵
You might’ve found it challenging to tailor them to your specific use cases - not anymore!
Introducing MOFA-FLEX: a flexible, modular factor analysis framework designed for customizable modeling across diverse multi-omics data scenarios. 1/n
An interesting "what have we been doing all these years?" result from this paper is how sub-optimal the widely-used uniform sampling scheme can be (cluster all @50%, sample from all clusters equally). In contrast, strategies that account for the relative differences in cluster size improve val loss
