Advancing non-coding RNA annotation with RNA sequence foundation models: structure and function perspectives - BMC Artificial Intelligence Noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs) form the major part of the expressed transcriptome. These are critical in regulating gene expression and contributing to disease mechanisms, primarily through their complex sec...

Our latest review explores how RNA foundation models are reshaping predictions of ncRNA structure & function.

We highlight key architectures, training strategies, and open challenges to guide the next phase of RNA-AI research.

Understanding the regulatory grammar of sepsis-causing Staphylococcus aureus bacteria using contexualised DNA language models - Scientific Reports Scientific Reports - Understanding the regulatory grammar of sepsis-causing Staphylococcus aureus bacteria using contexualised DNA language models

Our latest paper combines multi-omics integration with genome-scale NLP models trained on DNA to uncover how S. aureus regulates infection, metabolism, and antibiotic resistance.

This unique organism agnostic method offers a new lens for systems-level biology.
