Google DeepMind has precomputed predicted effects for all nine billion possible single-letter DNA changes and released a simple score so researchers can look them up.

New genomic breakthrough reveals exactly where diseases strike. By decoding polygenic signals, scientists pinpoint the tissues and cell types driving illness for precision medicine.

Human genetics is reshaping drug discovery by revealing reliable targets, improving success rates, and reducing costly clinical failures in the development of safer, more effective treatments.

Massive genetic study reveals new Alzheimer’s risk genes, linking immune system dysfunction to brain degeneration—offering hope for earlier detection, better treatments, and deeper understanding of disease mechanisms.

TranscriptFormer was trained on 112 million cells and can compare types across species, including cells the model has never seen.

Researchers at the University of California, Berkeley built an efficient genomic language model that uses evolutionary comparisons to find DNA changes most likely to affect health and inherited traits.
