Professor's lab tests new gene-regulation model: stronger GWAS variant prioritization in unseen cell states

Anshul Kundaje praises the model's case studies and its variant-effect/E2G resource. His lab applied it to GWAS variant and gene prioritization by predicting in cell states not used in training, finding it much stronger than prior models. He calls the architecture an intricate, non-trivial extension over SOTA and recommends reading the excellently written paper.
