CZI, 10x Genomics, Ultima Genomics to Sequence 1 Billion Single Cells to Train AI Models
The project is also partnering with academic researchers, including Alexander Marson, director of the Gladstone-UCSF Institute of Genomic Immunology.
The scGenePT virtual cell model is one of several AI tools that the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative is making available to researchers through a new web platform.
Use of genomics-focused generative AI models for cells has exploded over the last year, changing the way scientists interact with data and conduct studies.
Study Implicates Immune Alterations, Delayed Viral Clearance in Age-Related COVID-19 Severity
Multiomic profiling of more than 1,000 hospitalized COVID-19 patients uncovered age-related immune dysregulation, inflammation, and viral persistence.
The project will build on two core technologies, both developed in Jay Shendure's lab at the University of Washington: DNA Typewriter and ENGRAM.
