DeepMind unveils AlphaGenome 2, a cell-type-conditional genomics model
pushmeet · x · 2026-11-11
Google DeepMind introduces AlphaGenome 2, a next-gen genomics model deciphering how DNA changes affect cells.
- Architecture conditions predictions on cell types and states, enabling variant-effect predictions across hundreds of human cell types and adaptation to unseen cell/disease states without retraining
- Major accuracy leap over its predecessor on the TenK10K immune cell dataset
- Aim: uncover cellular drivers of disease across cell types like heart muscle and immune cells
