Excited to share our @NatureMethods paper on pitfalls & opportunities of using #interpretable #AI in comp bio in the #LLM era. Great collab w/ @atalwalkar's lab. Huge kudos to @valeriechen_ & @muyu_wendy_yang! @CMUCompBio @mldcmu @SCSatCMU @CarnegieMellon nature.com/articles/s4159…

Excited to share scGHOST, now published @NatureMethods, graph-based #ML identifying #3Dgenome subcompartments in single cells. Kudos to @KyleXiongCMU & @RuochiZhang, who worked so closely on this. Exciting time for single-cell epigenomics & multiomics! nature.com/articles/s4159…

Congratulations to Carl Kingsford for being elected 2024 @ISCB Fellow cbd.cmu.edu/news/2024/carl…

Grad students used AI to examine health care data from Regional Autonomous Patient Safety initiative to look for patterns to detect drug interactions. RAPS is a part of CMU's Center for Innovation in Health, led by @cmucompbio faculty Carl Kingsford bit.ly/49MKTBW

The vocalizations of humans, bats, whales, seals and songbirds vastly differ from each other. But researchers in the Pfenning lab and at UC Berkeley have found parts of the genome that have evolved and are associated with vocal learning across mammals. cbd.cmu.edu/news/2024/simi…

In the pursuit of new treatments, researchers in the Pfenning lab and their collaborators have identified molecular pathways associated with Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease in the brains of people with opioid use disorder. cbd.cmu.edu/news/2024/loga…

Researchers in the Mohimani lab have developed a fundamental algorithm that can process larger quantities of mass spectrometry data in the study of small molecules, known as metabolomics, in a fraction of the time needed for more traditional methods. cbd.cmu.edu/news/2024/mohi…
