Genomics x AI community blog launches with AlphaGenome tutorials and more
anshulkundaje · x · 2026-11-13
Members of Anshul Kundaje's lab launched the Genomics x AI community blog, arguing scientific communication shouldn't wait a year for incremental journal publications and inviting community submissions.
Already published:
- promoterai-torch, a PyTorch port of Illumina's PromoterAI
- ENCODE GRAMMAR: a deep learning resource decoding DNA regulatory sequence logic, with a quickstart guide
- A hands-on AlphaGenome series: native JAX/Haiku fine-tuning, PyTorch port, fine-tuning splicing heads from scratch, adapting to MPRA data, and NVIDIA GPU latency/memory benchmarking
- Benchmarking seq2func models on distal enhancer effects with CRISPRi screens
- Cherimoya, a lightweight sequence-to-function model, and Chorus for chatting with genomic oracles
Categories span sequence-to-function, single-cell, interpretability, multi-omics, and AI agents, for both newcomers and technical readers.
