Hot off the press – new study from the group:
🧬🤖 A DNA language model for predicting mutation risk trained on massive genomic data sets
A mutation seen again and again across cancer genomes looks like a causal change. But sometimes the DNA site is simply very easy to mutate and so generates a hotspot 🔥.
We built MutFormer AI model to separate these two possibilities: operating at single-nucleotide resolution, it separates “driver” from “passenger” hotspots.
(awesome work by Ivan Galvan 🔝, Marcell Veiner @MarcellVeiner et al. 👏)
