So here are the results of 2 years of hard work:

BMFM-DNA: A SNP-aware DNA foundation model to capture variant effects

It's a simple concept: encode DNA variants in your pre-training and get better fine-tunning results.

BMFM-DNA: A SNP-aware DNA foundation model to capture variant effects
Large language models (LLMs) trained on text demonstrated remarkable results on natural language processing (NLP) tasks. These models have been adapted to decipher the language of DNA, where sequences...

After 20 years of service, an NPR reporter's beloved minivan is on the fritz. But what is its best and highest calling now: Pass it on to another family or recycle it into parts?
Sell it, donate it — recycle it? A beloved old minivan faces a fork in the road
