Machine learning prediction of prime editing efficiency across diverse chromatin contexts

We developed machine learning models, PRIDICT2.0 and ePRIDICT, to predict prime editing efficiency, offering a robust tool for optimizing genome editing strategies across diverse chromatin contexts.

Predicting prime editing efficiency and product purity by deep learning

PRIDICT is a machine learning model that accurately predicts prime editing efficiency, validated across diverse genetic edits and various experimental conditions.

Controlling testing volume for respiratory viruses using machine learning and text mining.

Viral testing for pediatric inpatients with respiratory symptoms is common, with considerable associated charges. In an attempt to reduce testing volumes, we studied whether data available at the time of admission could aid in identifying children …

We are looking for Masters Students in Protein Design!

We are currently looking for Master’s students with a background in machine learning (or related computational field) for a project on Protein Fitness Optimization. Protein fitness optimization aims to improve a protein’s functionality by modifying its amino acid sequence to enhance a specific property, such as stability or binding affinity. There are various computational approaches to tackle this problem that enable in-silico pipelines to suggest new protein candidates. One of them involves generative models, which aim to capture the distribution of protein sequence data and propose new sequence mutants based on the learned distribution.
