New from Lippman Lab and recent PhD grad Dani Ciren on bioRxiv: “A striking paradox is that genes with conserved protein sequence, function and expression pattern over deep time often exhibit extremely divergent cis-regulatory sequences.” More inside… biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

I've written up a "crash course" on population genetics parameters useful for thinking about recent selection, heritability, and group differences (as part of a longer write-up on these concepts). gusevlab.org/projects/hsq/#… I'll summarize the key points here 🧵:

🌱🚨 Exciting news! We're launching a company to develop next-gen crop breeding tools, speeding up seed-to-seed generation time. Seeking experts in plant biotechnology, AI/ML, and agricultural biotech commercialization. Links in comments 🚨 🌱

If you have a Ph.D. in population genetics, computational biology, or bioinformatics and an interest in human health, you should come to Denmark for your postdoc and help us understand the role sex chromosomes play in autism. international.au.dk/about/profile/…

We have received lots of interest in AlphaMissense, the @GoogleDeepmind model predicting the probability of a missense variant being pathogenic, since its release in September. Today we are updating the license terms for AlphaMissense predictions to also allow for commercial use.

Two new chapters from my open-access textbook in human population genetics are now online: - Population structure: I. Ancestry estimation - Population structure: II. More about admixture web.stanford.edu/group/pritchar…

PlantCaduceus - Cross-species modeling of plant genomes Led by Jingjing Zhai and Aaron Gokaslan, with the Kuleshov lab, we’re having our “ChatGPT moment” with DNA Large Models. PlantCaduceus predicts functional DNA sequences with single base resolution across flowering plants.

Excited that CREME (Cis-Regulatory Element Model Explanations) is published in Nature Genetics! Work led by ShToneyan! tl;dr CREME interprets rules of gene regulation learned by genomic deep learning models using carefully designed in silico perturbations. rdcu.be/dT3kq

🌟 Excited to announce AMPLIFY, our latest protein language model that challenges the scaling trend! While current models like ESM2 15B rely on billions of parameters, AMPLIFY achieves superior performance with only 350M parameters. 1/7
