@BrianHie @pdhsu @arcinstitute Julia — what do you think about the fact that they claim to generate functional CRISPR-Cas systems without experimental validation?

@BrianHie @pdhsu @arcinstitute I think that they’re going to do the experimental validation :)

🚀 We're thrilled to introduce Orthrus 🧬🐕—a groundbreaking mature RNA foundation model designed to push the boundaries of RNA property prediction! 🔬 What is Orthrus? Orthrus is a Mamba-based RNA foundation model, pre-trained using a novel self-supervised contrastive learning objective with biologically inspired augmentations. It optimizes the similarity between splicing isoforms and orthologous transcripts, capturing functional and evolutionary relationships to enhance mature RNA property prediction accuracy. 📑 Preprint: 💻 Code: 🌐 Project Page: 📦 Model Weights: 🧠 Why Orthrus? Decoding the RNA regulatory code is key to understanding biology, but traditional experimental approaches are slow and costly. Existing genomic foundation models rely on techniques like masked language modeling or next-token prediction, which aren't fully aligned with the complexities of genomic data—leading to suboptimal results. 🌟 Orthrus Highlights: - Biologically-Informed Contrastive Learning 🧪: A novel contrastive learning objective designed specifically for genomics, maximizing similarity between splicing isoforms and orthologous transcripts across species. - Extensive Pre-training 📊: Trained on splicing annotations from 10 species and orthologous alignments from 400+ mammalian species (Zoonomia Project), with a focus on sequences of high functional importance. - Superior Representations🏅: Orthrus outperforms existing genomic models on 5 mRNA property prediction tasks, often surpassing supervised methods with just a simple linear transformation. - Efficiency in Low-Data Settings📉: Orthrus excels in low-data regimes, achieving state-of-the-art results with as few as 45 labeled examples for fine-tuning on RNA half-life prediction. Shoutout to the amazing leading authors Phil (Phil Fradkin) and Ian (Ian Shi)! Also the work is impossible without an outstanding collaboration by Karina (Karin(a) Isaev), Brendan (Brendan Frey) , Quaid (Quaid Morris), Leo J. Lee!

DARPA—who developed the Operation Warp Speed Death Jabs (see tweet 2)—now wants to inject people with "protein complexes" that, when hit with "different wavelengths of light" will "synthesize specific DNA or RNA sequences on demand." DARPA = literal Nazis. Nuremberg for DARPA! ----------------Partial transcription of clip--------------- "Synthetic DNA and RNA molecules could enable a host of next-generation technologies crucial for national security and global well-being. However, current methods for creating these molecules from scratch face significant limitations in terms of their scale, complexity, and use of hazardous chemicals. DARPA's Generative Optogenetics Program. "GO seeks to harness the power of light to direct the synthesis of DNA and RNA directly within living cells. If successful, this high-risk, high-reward research program has the potential to revolutionize medicine, agriculture, and manufacturing. "GO aims to unlock an era of programmable biology where we can communicate with and direct cell behavior with unprecedented speed, precision, and reach via optical signals. Performers on GO will design protein complexes that, when expressed in a living cell, use light-triggered signaling to deliver genetic information, instructing cells to incorporate specific building blocks based on different wavelengths of light to synthesize specific DNA or RNA sequences on demand. "The GO program focuses on two main research objectives. The first is achieving the core capability of synthesizing DNA or RNA directly in living cells using optical signals. The second focuses on developing error-mitigation methods that ensure high-fidelity nucleic acid synthesis."

🔬 Exciting News! Our manuscript, "scGPT: toward building a foundation model for single-cell multi-omics using generative AI" is now finally published in Nature Methods (Nature Methods) 🎉 !!! (Re-)Introducing scGPT: A transformative foundation model engineered for single-cell omics analysis. Developed through the analysis of over 33 million human cells, scGPT sets a new benchmark for application versatility, offering both fine-tuning and zero-shot capabilities. Since its preprint in May 2023, scGPT has significantly impacted the field, evidenced by 13K+ installations, 600+ GitHub stars 🌟, and 40+ citations before its official publication! scGPT has been validated by numerous benchmark studies as a leading foundation model in single-cell analysis. Its pre-trained embeddings extend its utility beyond single-cell studies, enhancing a variety of downstream tasks including protein enrichment and genetic perturbation predictions. Some key updates lately: ---Expanded zero-shot applications for efficient reference mapping and integration, now with CellXGene census integration. ---Advanced perturbation analysis capabilities, including genome-scale perturb-seq data analysis and bulk sequencing data generalization. ---Upgraded scGPT package, offering versatile model loading compatible with PyTorch and flash-attn, for both GPU and CPU. ---Cloud-based scGPT applications for reference mapping, cell annotation, and gene regulatory network inference are available on ---Integration with Hugging Face for easier model training. Limitations: scGPT is an early foray into foundation models for single-cell omics, facing challenges like limited zero-shot learning in some tasks, pretraining constraints, data quality issues, and evaluation limitations. See our Supplementary Notes for details. 🚀 Future Work? Short-Term Goals: 1. Releasing a Mouse Model for broader analysis. 2. Developing a comprehensive evaluation suite for foundation models in single-cell analysis. 3. Creating a foundation model for single-cell spatial omics. 4. Enhancing zero-shot capacity by integrating scGPT with RAG (e.g., knowledge graphs). Long-Term Goals: 1. Expanding scGPT for comprehensive single-cell multi-omics analysis. 2. Developing an in-silico perturbation model for predicting genetic perturbation effects. 3. Merging scGPT with multi-modal genomic sequence models for a deeper understanding of cell biology. 📚 Access the paper on Nature Methods: 🔬Preprint in Bioarixv: 💻 All our codes/data/weights are open source: Wholehearted congratulations to all the authors, especially the two co-first authors, Haotian (Haotian Cui ) and Chloe (ChloeXWang), who are really the emerging superstars in AI and biology!
