‘RNA writing’ is latest tech to emerge in race to edit large blocks of genetic material. My story for Endpoints News on the method that hijacks RNA splicing to replace swathes of mRNA. Scientists say it's like the RNA version of prime editing or DNA writing. 🧵

Nice. Much better evaluation of DNA LMs on actually important tasks specifically focused on 3'-UTR. Motif discovery, variant scoring and MPRA activity prediction, mRNA half life prediction. 1/

As January wraps up the beginning of the new year, we took time to reflect on Chen Lab highlights from 2023…

Huge congrats Hattie!!! Looking forward to the amazing work that you'll do :)

Check out our paper! Great time working with everyone :)

Presenting Slide-TCR-seq: our method for measuring the transcriptomes of cells & T cell receptor (TCR) sequences in situ!

This collaboration w/ Bryan Iorgulescu, Shuqiang Li, Catherine Wu, and Fei Chen Lab led to some cool findings...
