🎉 Exciting News in Genomic Foundation Models! 🎉 Genetic variants (GVs) are key in diagnosing and treating genetic diseases. With the plummeting costs of next-generation sequencing, we now have a treasure trove of GV data. But this surge presents a challenge for clinicians: how…
Our multimodal model to combine TCR sequences with scRNA-seq is finally out. The most interesting part for me was observing a clear case where the combination of TCR sequence and cell state (RNA) preserved both clonotype and cell type information, leading to a more holistic cell…
Happy to have presented our Arbutus research cloud architecture supporting the @BrainCanada Single Cell Initiative 🧠 at DRI Connect ‘24 in Halifax. Thank you to @Alliance_Can, Jeff, John, and JJ for the opportunity to share our build from the researchers’ perspective! @PughLab
When I read a new foundation model paper for Biology
Researchers @TGHRI_UHN unveil an #AI model for analyzing data from single cells. Read about how this tool developed by @BoWang87 @HAOTIANCUI1 & @ChloeXWang1 has the potential to advance health research! Read more > uhnresearch.ca/news/generativ…; doi.org/10.1038/s41592…
As my lab develops Seurat, I wanted to share some thoughts on the important Seurat and scanpy package selection preprint from @Josephmrich/@lpachter 🧵
NEW FROM CBW: Introductory Spatial 'Omics Analysis 🧬🧠 Announcing a brand-new workshop offered in collaboration with @PanoramicsAV and the Brain Single Cell Initiative! - July 9-10 - Toronto AND online - $0 registration (yes, really!) More info: bioinformatics.ca/workshops-all/…
The choice of whether to use Seurat or Scanpy for single-cell RNA-seq analysis typically comes down to a preference of R vs. Python. But do they produce the same results? In biorxiv.org/content/10.110… w/ @Josephmrich et al. we take a close look. The results are 👀 1/🧵
The future of AI-driven drug discovery is natural intelligence. Today, we report EVolved Avian Natural Neural Networks (EVA-3N) - a breakthrough single-cell foundation model that unifies RNA, DNA and single cell language in an evolved 2B parameter general AI model 👇
And then they all got fired
Out today from the Stegle, Theis, and Moore labs! SpatialData is a user-friendly computational framework for exploring, analyzing, annotating, aligning and storing spatial omics data that can seamlessly handle large multimodal datasets. nature.com/articles/s4159…
Congratulations to Dr. Lillian L. Siu, who will become the 17th woman AACR president when she takes the gavel in 2025. Since the first woman scientist served as @AACR president in 1961, 17 women have been elected AACR president— including 10 of the last 23. @lillian_siu

Toronto is already a powerhouse in life sciences research because of the commitment of UofT, @UHN, @SickKidsNews, @CAMHnews , @Sunnybrook , @UnityHealthTO and other academic medical centres. Canadian government needs to step up its ambition and invest
