Minerva uses genome language models to uncover hidden non-coding DNA elements at scale
anshulkundaje · x · 2026-09-24
Minerva is a new discovery method guided by genome language models like gLM2. It reveals interactions hidden in non-coding DNA, pointing to hundreds of new putative RNAs and repetitive elements per bacterial genome, at orders of magnitude greater scale than traditional methods.
