Congrats to Johannes Linder, David Kelley et al. on the journal publication of Borzoi - a long context sequence models of RNA-seq coverage profiles with many nice applications for transcriptional & post-transcriptional regulation & variant effect prediction.

Predicting RNA-seq coverage from DNA sequence as a unifying model of gene regulation - Nature Genetics
Borzoi adapts the Enformer sequence-to-expression model to directly predict RNA-seq coverage, enabling the in-silico analysis of variant effects across multiple layers of gene regulation.

New algorithm for spatial transcriptome analysis that predicts the crosstalk of cell types co-localized in tissue niches. Also studies the downstream effects of cell-cell interactions by inferring covarying gene programs.

Medically adapted foundation models (think Med-*) turn out to be more hot air than hot stuff. Correcting for fatal flaws in evaluation, the current crop are no better on balance than generic foundation models, even on the very tasks for which benefits are claimed.

Have you experienced "Expert's Dilemma"?
The more specialized you become, the less open you are to creative solutions from other fields. But the more you explore other fields, the more you risk losing credibility in your home field.

Despite evidence to the contrary, funding bodies remain confident they can predict the success of a project.
