1/17 Thrilled to share details on the DNA-Diffusion project! We use diffusion models to generate synthetic gene regulatory sequences. Generating such sequences reliably unlocks promising therapeutic applications requiring accurate gene expression modulation 🧵👇 2/17 Modelling the gene regulatory system is a daunting task. It is a highly non-linear system, with many moving and interacting parts. With DNA-Diffusion, we dive into the grand challenge of systematically modulating regulatory elements for precise gene expression control.

🧵 Are exams really the best way to measure intelligence and knowledge?

In this thread, I'll share my thoughts on why I think it's time to reconsider our current examination system in high schools and universities.
