Excited to share UKBBGym at #ASHG25, a new benchmark for variant effect predictors using WGS, proteomics and phenotypes from 500K UKBiobank participants. Stop by for insights on the impact of non-coding variants and how computational scores stack up against exp assays.

FlashZoi is now out - our fast implementation of Borzoi. Congrats @johahi.bsky.social and enjoy all! More below.
Happy to share that Flashzoi is now published!
We enhanced Borzoi with RoPE & FlashAttention for >3x faster training/inference & 2.4x reduction in memory usage.
This brings large-scale genomic analysis and fine-tuning within reach of academic budgets.

Congrats for the poster prize at #EMBLProtein, Xavi @xavierheal.bsky.social
! Wonderful to dissect the translational response to metabolic shifts with time series of ribosome profiling and AI. Exciting multidisciplinary project. So glad to work with you and Danny Nedialkova on this.

Update of our protein outlier caller PROTRIDER. We now handle missing values, a widespread issue for mass spec where missing values are not a random -- and this improves outlier detection on non-missing data! Thumbs up to Daniela and George for the great work.

In today's poster session #probgen25. To the pop gen folks, interesting observation: The influence of a nucleotide on reconstructing others, rather than its own reconstructability, is a better predictor of function. This metric makes DNA LMs beat conservation in several benchmarks.
