I do appreciate Eddie’s courage to recruit someone from outside the field. I hope to bring the same energy and excitement to solve some important and fundamental questions in this new and cool area!
In April 2022, on a quiet afternoon, Rahul invited Harm and me to cofound a startup, Neptune Bio. Three years have passed. From pitching to investors, building a network with other founders, setting up a company, to publishing my first senior-author paper!
Now, I am excited to begin my postdoctoral position in Eddie Chang’s lab at UCSF, where I will focus on decoding human neuronal activity underlying language articulation and perception. Still working at the single-cell level, but this time studying neuronal firing patterns.

We release 300 million single cells (and counting) for virtual cell modeling, our first AI agent work @arcinstitute, and 100 million perturbed cells with @vevo_ai
This is the largest repository available, open source, and hopefully an ImageNet for cell biology

We trained a genomic language model on all observed evolution, which we are calling Evo 2.
The model achieves an unprecedented breadth in capabilities, enabling prediction and design tasks from molecular to genome scale and across all three domains of life.
It's an exciting experience to engage in discussions and exchange ideas about computational challenges and opportunities in the single-cell area with these remarkable individuals, @mo_lotfollahi@fabian_theis@satijalab ! Ultimately, this becomes our current perspective in Cell.
Our perspective with @fabian_theis , @YUHANHAO2 , and @mo_lotfollahi on the power and potential of reference mapping across disease states, molecular modalities, perturbations, and species: https://t.co/ybtNNHjA3c
Our article reinterprets reference mapping, moving from short reads to single-cell analysis, and focuses on two key points: building and using single-cell references.
On May 9 last year, I was incredibly fortunate to speak with him, during the time we even discussed combinatorial generalization. Our conversation ended with his commonly used but best words, "Good Luck."
Thank you, James. R.I.P.
Deeply sad to learn the news of James Simons' passing, a legendary mathematician and quantitative investor who successfully decoded market patterns. By coincidence, I completed my PhD research at NYGC, an institute he generously supported.
Happy #singlecellgenomicsday 2024 with so many incredible presentations! This is my first time joining the SCGD outside the Satija lab, but I'm still surrounded by a group of exceptional people. We all gathered to enjoy the sessions at the Alexandria Center, NYC!
