Published today in @nature.com, @adititm.bsky.social & researchers from the @brianhie.bsky.social lab report that the large-scale genomic model, Evo, is capable of using surrounding genomic context to produce novel, functional genes, enabling an an emergent approach they've termed 'semantic design'.

They both grow in distinct layers! Snail shells add spiral layers as they age, much like how our teeth show incremental layers of enamel...

For those of you headed to #SfN25 If you study social behaviors be sure to check out our posters.
We will be presenting how the brain represents prosocial decisions, how dopamine dynamics relate to social memory, whether respiration relates to social hierarchies, and more!
