Ending genetic disease, starting with embryo selection

Joined November 2024
A First Step Towards Interpretable Protein Structure Prediction With SAEFold, we enable mechanistic interpretability on ESMFold, a protein structure prediction model, for the first time. Watch @NithinParsan demo a case study here w/ links for paper & open-source code 👇

Couples with a family history of severe autism have been reaching out, hoping we could find a genetic cause to screen for. But the genetic signal was always sparse. Now our new work on rare variants & GPN-star has increased performance by over 50%. Another step towards ending genetic disease.

This work builds on NeuroRisk from @herasight and colleagues, and GPN-Star from @yun_s_song's group. We extend the rare-variant representation and test its additional contribution in All of Us. Credit to both teams for the foundational research.

Longer 🧵 breaking down our paper 👇 teapawt.net/johnyang100/status/190…
If you’ve ever - thought AI protein folding is magical ✨ - wanted more than a pLDDT score 🔎 - or just think mech interp in bio is cool 🤓 then read the 🧵 👇 on our first paper towards interpretable protein structure prediction just accepted to workshops at ICLR

For anyone going to ICLR, we'll be presenting our poster at the GEM, LMRL, SciFM, XAI4Science, and MLMP workshops. Stop by if you're curious about bio interp!

shoutout @liambai21 and @etowah0 for beating us to the punch on translating mech interp to protein language models. excited to see where these techniques will lead given the dense amt of coevolutionary + structure info learned by these models.

Incredibly excited to launch publicly as part of @ycombinator's Fall 2024 Batch. Send us a DM if you're in the interpretability space or working in biotech. @johnyang100 and @NithinParsan
YC F24's @ReticularAI makes protein AI models controllable and interpretable to help steer protein design with limited biological data, reducing costly validation cycles. ycombinator.com/launches/ME3… Congrats on the launch, @NithinParsan and @johnyang100!
