🚀Excited to share our new preprint: “Programming human cell type-specific gene expression via an atlas of AI-designed enhancers”

We built the largest repository of AI-designed enhancers, validated across 10 human cell lines + mouse retina.

Programming human cell type-specific gene expression via an atlas of AI-designed enhancers
Differentially active enhancers are key drivers of cell type specific gene expression. Active enhancers are found in open chromatin, which can be mapped at genome scale across tissue and cell types. T...

The best moment to put this out there was 10 years ago, the second best moment is right now :-)

After nine years at the Altius Institute for Biomedical Sciences, I’ve decided it’s time to move on.

For the past two-plus years I’ve been nine hours ahead in the Netherlands. The calendars usually lined up, but life and sleep rarely did - so I’ve reset the clock.

New paper out in @cp-cellsystems.bsky.social in collaboration with the lab of Georg Seelig at UW, and led by the awesome Chris Yin and @castillohair.bsky.social

Using a variety of deep-learning models, we design synthetic enhancer elements:
