Very happy to share my work on a Large Cell Model for Gene Network Inference. It is for now just a preprint and more is to come. We ask: “What can 50M cells tell us about gene networks?”❓

scPRINT is now finally on the Chan Zuckerberg Institute's Model Hub! 🎉 🧬 🌈 It is one more way you can use this cell foundation model to embed, denoise, predict cell type, get gene networks from your data from scratch, or fine-tune it on your own application / usecase: virtualcellmodels.cz...
scPRINT | v1.0 | Virtual Cells Platform
scPRINT is a cell foundation model, also called a Large Cell Model (LCM), trained on single-cell RNA sequence (scRNAseq) data from more than 50M human and mouse cells available through CZ CELLxGENE. Based on the transformer architecture, the model is fully open source and reproducible, with multiple checkpoint sizes available from 2M to 100M parameters. scPRINT demonstrated high performance for genome-wide cell-specific gene network inference when benchmarked against state-of-the-art models (e.g., scGPT, Geneformer v2, GENIE3). In addition, scPRINT has various zero-shot capabilities, including cell embedding, cell label prediction (e.g., cell type, sex, disease), and gene expression imputation, highlighting its potential as a versatile tool for single-cell analysis.

scPRINT: Gene Network Inference from 50M Cells by Jérémie Kalfon - Genbio AI
TL;DR In this talk, Jérémie Kalfon presents his paper “scPRINT: pre-training on 50 million cells allows robust gene network predictions” at the Foundation Models for Biology Seminar Series by GenBio AI. He introduces scPRINT, a transformer-based foundation model trained on over 50 million single-cell RNA-seq profiles to infer gene networks. scPRINT enables scientists to predict
