AlphaGenome 2 is our new AI model that zooms in on specific cells to help scientists understand what drives disease. 🧵
The story so far
Google DeepMind has released AlphaGenome 2, a model that predicts how DNA variants affect specific human cell types and states. The model is available through the AlphaGenome API for non-commercial research, while commercial research access is in a closed private preview. Google says it is intended for research and has not been validated or approved for clinical or diagnostic use. Google says AlphaGenome 2 was trained on more than 107 million cell profiles. On the TenK10K benchmark, it identified nearly twice as many causal variants as the original AlphaGenome; The Decoder reports about 30 percent for AlphaGenome 2 versus 16 percent for a fine-tuned AlphaGenome 1.
