From #SingleCell to cell-based therapies, we’re building capacity for AI applications to cell biology at scale. @chanzuckerberg’s Head of Science Stephen Quake shares our vision for using AI to help scientists advance our understanding of cell + systems biology

We’re excited to support 64 interdisciplinary teams that are taking innovative approaches to study fundamental #neuroscience + neurodegenerative diseases. Read more about our second cycle of Chan Zuckerberg Initiative’s Neuroscience Collaborative Pairs Pilot Projects czi.co/42K4IqJ

The path to understanding the mysteries of the cell takes innovative technology, lots of data & multi-institution collaboration. To reach this goal, we’re announcing 4 projects in genomics & #biology, uniting labs to decode cellular functions ⬇️

🧬 + 🤖 Evo, our recently released 7B long-context genomic foundation model, can be run in a simple notebook! 👉 Check out this Google Colab showing how to use Evo to go all the way from DNA generation to protein folding: colab.research.google.com/github/evo-des…

Exciting to see this out! A collaborative effort with CZI Science and Oxford Nanopore to offer the research community a free, easy-to-use pipeline for metagenomic analysis of complex microbial communities without the need for coding or computing resources biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

AI for biology has the potential to help solve some of the most important problems facing our society. Scientific openness will be critical for our field to progress. As scientists engaged in this work, with more than 90 signatories across the world, we are advancing a framework

🧬 First days at the @CZbiohub & APHL Genomic Epidemiology course in the Republic of Georgia 🇬🇪 with the Lugar Center, NCDCGeorgia & CDC @cdcglobal lab advisors from Central Asia. A motivated group focused on expanding genomic epidemiology in Eastern Europe & Central Asia.

Want to hear about the latest updates/new techniques in single cell and spatial genomics? Check out the full agenda for our Single Cell Genomics Day on Friday, 3/29. All talks will be live-streamed (no registration required) at satijalab.org/scgd

First single cell data in, by, from #Bangladesh! Contributing to the Human Cell Atlas! Just the beginning. More to come from nasopharyngeal mucosa with & without infections. Cant thank Jose Ordovas-Montanes & team enough. Plus Shalek Lab & of course our donors CZI Science Jonah Cool!

#SingleCell researchers: did you know you can download + visually explore data from 1200+ datasets, spanning 789+ cell types through CZ #CellxGene Discover? bit.ly/3VraMCN

The CZ Biohub Network is pleased to welcome the biomedical & AI expertise of 3 new members to our Board of Directors: 🌟Sam Altman/Sam Altman, OpenAI CEO 🌟Sam Hawgood, UC San Francisco Chancellor 🌟Mike Schroepfer/Mike Schroepfer, Partner @Gigascale View the full Board: bit.ly/3x6URQ3

📢Announcing the first-ever Chicago BioEngineering Conference! #CZBiohubCHI will bring together scientists in advanced sensing technologies, tissue & cell engineering, new omics approaches, and more. Don't miss it: Sept 30-Oct 1. (1/2) Learn more ⤵️ czbiohub.org/events/chicago…

Yesterday I had the pleasure of sitting down with Stephen Quake, Amy Herr, Marion Pepper, and Jay Shendure for a special panel celebrating the launch of the Seattle Hub for Synthetic Biology. The passion, optimism, and commitment to open science was shared by the entire panel.

🚨 New preprint 🚨 Our CZ ID team + Chan Zuckerberg Biohub Network highlight the platform’s new antimicrobial resistant (AMR) module, which enables the detection of microbes & AMR genes in mNGS + whole-genome sequencing data 🧵

📡🧵 Excited to release our preprint: Ultrack: Pushing the Limits of Cell Tracking Across Biological Scales doi.org/10.1101/2024.0… A tour-de-force by Jordão Bragantini, #Ultrack is a versatile, highly accurate, and fast ILP-based cell tracking software for 2D, 3D, and multicolor

Spatial mapping provides key insights into tissue architecture, gene expression + key patterning events in development & disease. Explore spatial transcriptomics datasets in seconds with CZ #CellxGene by applying the Visium and/or Slide-seqV2 filters bit.ly/3XlTS7T

📡🧵 Excited to release two #bioRxiv preprints! The first preprint is: "Zebrahub-Multiome: Uncovering Gene Regulatory Network Dynamics During Zebrafish Embryogenesis" doi.org/10.1101/2024.1… We present a comprehensive time-resolved single-cell multiomic atlas of zebrafish

🚨Big news! Five years in the making, our Zebrahub paper is now published in #Cell 🎉. We’ve built a timecourse atlas of zebrafish embryonic development, combining #scRNAseq data and #lightsheet live imaging, and delved deep into the dynamics of key progenitors.

I'm excited to announce a tenure track faculty position in conservation genomics in EEB UCLA! We're looking for candidates who use genomic tools to study evolutionary processes related to conservation. Note, the actual application deadline is Nov 29. recruit.apo.ucla.edu/JPF09875
