In collaboration with the International Conference on Research in Computational Molecular Biology (RECOMB), Genome Research publishes a collection of 20 computational methods and their applications in genomics including spatial, single-cell, and long-read sequencing. These include algorithmic innovations in genomic variation analysis, privacy-preserving algorithms, DNA structural properties, cancer genomics, transcriptomic studies, gene regulatory networks, biomolecular representation learning, and metagenomic data analysis. Several of these studies are highlighted below. PRiMeR (Sens et al. 2024) is a method that leverages genetic information to learn disease risk predictors across cohorts, circumventing the need for traditional longitudinal studies. With training on risk factors and genetic data from…

What began as casual networking at a recent meetup turned into a spirited debate on AI’s influence in business. While we were excited about AI’s potential to provide insights that once took days to uncover, concerns about losing our human touch emerged. Some saw AI as a tool for sharper strategies, using data to predict trends and enhance operations. Others argued that intuition and relationships are essential parts of business decisions. We concluded that AI and human instinct don’t need to be at odds. The real challenge is using AI to inform decisions while preserving the human element of entrepreneurship.…
The upside of SpaceX’s architecture is that, with refueling, Starship can theoretically ferry payloads of 100 metric tons or more to the Moon or Mars, significantly more capacity than any other rocket. The ships could be refueled over and over again, and routinely transit between Earth and destinations in space, making all sorts of fascinating missions possible. Some time next year, SpaceX plans to launch a pair of Starships into orbit using its two side-by-side launch pads in Texas. The ships will dock together in orbit and test technologies to transfer cryogenic propellants, which has never been done in space…
