Congratulations to @washumedicine Professor of Genetics Susan Dutcher, who was elected to the US National Academy of Sciences this week. It is a well-deserved recognition of her outstanding scientific achievements.
I am a couple of days late, but a huge congrats to our own @WashUGenetics Susan Dutcher on her election to the National Academy of Sciences!

The New York Times profiled Lila Sciences, a company co-founded by one of our @WashUGenetics Computational and Systems Biology graduates.
Read more about Lila's AI-guided experiments:
Interesting NYT piece on Lila Sciences, a start-up based on AI-guided experimentation to develop new therapeutics and materials. Co-founded by one of our @WashUGenetics comp bio grads, Molly Gibson.
Iterating between experiments and AI models is the way.

Something that would make a lot of people's lives better would be a non-additive drug to treat severe and chronic pain.
Thanks to the NIH and forward looking research by Pharma, these drugs are on their way:

Science published another genomic foundation model trained on millions of prokaryotic genomes. What about instances with much less data, like rare disease-associated cell types?
Some thoughts and links about deep learning with less genomic data:

Very cool paper showing the ability measure binding site occupancy on single chromatin fibers at targeted loci.
This is going to be an important tool for assessing the effects of non-coding SNPs in single cells:
Deaminase-assisted Fiber-seq (DAF-seq) has arrived! DAF-seq is an amplification-compatible version of #Fiberseq that resolves genetic and chromatin architectures with single-nucleotide, single-molecule, single-haplotype, and single-cell precision. https://t.co/ArxOOOlqoj
Excited to share our latest preprint, as part of ENCODE4, on a consensus variant-to-function (cV2F) score for functionally prioritizing variants for complex disease - led by Tabassum Fabiha and co-mentored with Alkes Price.
