We can use #deeplearning to learn from our #genomes and predict personal risk of #disease! New method and framework called EIR led by amazing @Arnor_Sig ! doi.org/10.1093/nar/gkad373

Deep integrative models for large-scale human genomics

Abstract. Polygenic risk scores (PRSs) are expected to play a critical role in precision medicine. Currently, PRS predictors are generally based on linear

🚨 Cool news! Our EIR framework for modeling multi-modal biomedical data has been featured in the first blog post from the new @PyTorch Ecosystem WG! 🔗 pytorch.org/blog/introducing… #PyTorch #EHR #Genomics #AI4Health #OpenSource #FoundationModels

Introducing the PyTorch Ecosystem Working Group and Project Spotlights - PyTorch

The PyTorch Ecosystem goes back several years, with some of its earliest projects like Hugging Face, Fast.ai, and PyTorch Lightning going on to grow incredible communities of their own. The...
